    2V Power Curve / Tradeoffs

    the LS1 just makes silly power. i drove my friends with heads/cam/intake/lid/exhaust and could not believe it. it is not fair. to get that kind of power i would need a forged block and a kenne bell. approximately 8-9K to get where he is for 2-3K.

    99 vortec on 97 4.6L?

    ok well i just compared the parts list for both the 99 kit and the 96-97 kit. the 99 kit came with injectors, pump assembly, and a chip. the 97 kit has the fmu and t rex pump. one or two nuts/bolts are different. the mounting bracket assembly has a different number, but all components are...

    99 vortec on 97 4.6L?

    i have a line on a 6 psi vortec kit. it is from a 99 gt. i looked through the instructions briefly and the only difference seemd to be that the 96-96 came with an fmu and t rex pump. the 99 kit has a chip and injectors. is there any other difference? we took the mounting bracket and checked it...

    I know i'm going to get eaten alive for this but I have to ask:

    100 lbs is a tenth of a second between cars with the exact setup. to get it in you need a chevy trans, driveshaft, a fabbed rear connection, k memeber, etc. you will spend too much money to get it in. go for a 351 liek the man said. stroke it, bore it, and you will have 400+ cubic inches...

    05 5spd Automatic

    well from what i see, 99% of explorers never tow or haul anything except themselves. at least in hampton roads. the are generally chic cars and carry beach chairs. not to be mean, but if there is a problem then the tranny is at fault. and even so, ford should never put a trans in a vehicle...

    man this would be a sweet swap. i have a 97 cougar xr7. i was planning to swap to a 02' 4.6L instead of just a pi swap. but now i am leaning towards the mach. is the swap from a 2V to a 4V hard?

    1997 Cobra or 1997 Mustang GT

    alright simmer down. go with a cobra if you can afford it. the 4V is a better platform to start with. but if you dont have the money, get a 96-98 gt. then go through greenleaf and get a 99+ gt motor. i am going to do this, and it will cost you 1500$, give or take. then it is a direct swap...

    that swap is a total pita. over at tccoa.com some of the guys have done it as well as the navigator swap. you need the engine, the ecu, wiring harness, custom k memeber i htink, etc. pretty much a fab as you go project. it can be dine but it takes laot of work. he could probably do it for...
