    97 5.4l 3v swap ONLY

    Deal or No Deal...

    of course that's a good deal so long as they fit your application. i underdrove a v6 some years ago and could actually feel a difference. (i usually can't tell a difference with bolt ons). not only that, but your mpg will improve and could make up the 100$ + belt price + install eventually (a...

    sheet metal intake

    I just realized that Mr. Fisher is probably also known as Assassinator. I think I sent the same person the same PM's. :) What are you end goals with developing this intake? Are you planning on selling the specs, or CAD'ing it and producing your own to sell, or is this simply a one-off...

    What superchargers work with 87 octane?

    with low enough boost you 'could' make any forced induction work with 87 octane. however, there are many reasons why doing so would not make sense nor would it be particularly safe. 1) higher octanes prevent detonation. detonation can quickly cause severe/catastrophic engine damage...

    97 5.4l 3v swap ONLY

    Hello, I have a 2000 gt 5spd and a 2005 f-series 3v 5.4 waiting to go in. I sent a PM to Bill Fisher and am looking for anyone else's help as well. If y'all have contact information for anyone who has done this swap with this particular motor, I would appreciate it. I cannot find this Ed Olin...

    imput on tranny performance build

    i am currently talking to about five shops about this issue, but haven't made a decision yet. i was hoping someone who knows transmissions might shed some light on this. it turns out my stock t45 (and presumably the tr3650 should as well) will fit the new motor, but will not be able to handle...

    will an 05 excursion fuel pump work on a 00gt?

    free > not free, just seeing if this is practical. the fuel pump is the stock unit that feeds a triton 6.8 v10. don't bother asking why i want to know this, just roll with it. :nice: austin

    appraisal of '00 gt

    thanks for your imputs. and yes, it is not my car (yet), it is one i'm buying. i got a quote of 5,500$ and he said that was on the far side, that it might be 4,500-5,000$. i plan for most of it to be done professionally, but some of the odds and ends I can do myself and plan to save a few...

    appraisal of '00 gt

    2000 gt 5spd 60k miles, no frame damage, even the rear bumpers are intact due to the collision being higher up (semi truck rear ended it). she runs, drives fine. no leaks, fluids are fine. i'm buying her for 1,200$. how much should i be expecting to to pay to get her fixed? things i...

    2.3l rebuild

    by chance i am getting a free 2.3l and tranny that i will try for my first rebuild. i figure it's good to start small and work up. what can y'all suggest? the 2.3l bottom end isn't that strong is it? the TC's have low comp. pistons and a stronger block, corrrect? should i try a little p/p...

    G-Tech?

    I've seen them on ebay for about 40 bucks. They are fairly accurate, but don't go around saying, "I ran a XX.XX@XXmph!" or someone will call you out on it. I hear they're fun to mess with though!

    Densecharger?

    go to their website, www.densecharger.com and find out. get an ASP underdrive pulley, new belt to match, a densecharger (i have heard they don't fit great though) or so such cold air kit, and dual exhaust and you should come out close to 210+ crank hp.
