The late model T5 should be around 300ft/lbs and i believe that is at the crank rating, if i remember right. If you get a mild bolt on 4.6, you should be ok but the more mods or more track time, the more chances on it breaking. Same goes for the V6 7.5 rear end.

First of all, if you swap in a 4.6l you will need to get a tranny. The v6 tranny will not bolt up to 4.6l motor. you also have to worry about all the wiring too. Trust me it would be a pita. If you want a v8, sell yours and buy one. If you want the power of a v8, mod the hell out of your 6.

Don't the GTs an V6 autos use the same trans?
For a V6-V8 swap you are going to need: engine, wiring harness, suspension, 8.8" rear-end, GT exhaust (stock V6 Y-pipe will not work), and fuel system.
