Didn't realize they tore down a completed motor to build an aluminator.

So what is difference in pistons from a 13 GT? I thought the 13s came with the pistons from the Boss, I thought those were Mahle?

HEY OP!!!

The video shows a cold test of the motor. My N/A aluminator was run with gasoline. There was a lot of carbon in the headers. Any idea why???

Some of the early engines were tested at Ford briefly before they were torn down and re-assembled into the Aluminator versions. Consider yours to have been 'hot' AND 'cold' tested - double verification!

All the base 5.0L GT pistons are cast (hypereutectic) - that's why they are replaced with the Mahle forgings in the Aluminator version.
