    how much power can the stock 2v block handle?

    from what i understand the big debate is whether or not the 4.6 to 5.0 strokers are worth the money as far as hp increase to $$$ spent ratio...not if stroking in general is a waste...am i right on this?

    how much power can the stock 2v block handle?

    ah, i never thought about needing to have the block honed. how would i know if it needs the work done? I have been hearing that the storker kits are a waste, but what is an easier way to get the forged internal set? piece by piece? any suggestions you guys got let me know...I am all ears and...

    how much power can the stock 2v block handle?

    something else i noticed...differences between the 4.6 rod and piston kit and the 5.0 stroker is the stroker comes with a forged cobra 8 bolt crankshaft...doesnt the 2000 windsor 4.6 come with the same crankshaft (8 bolt...but probably not the same, huh?)

    how much power can the stock 2v block handle?

    wow, 1000 hp? way more than i intend to push, but that piece of information has made me rethink the idea of an engine swap. I want to know i can punish the engine without having to worry about it all the time. instead of a whole new block, since i can afford some down time on my car (pays to...

    how much power can the stock 2v block handle?

    on my quest to decide whether to swap the motor out or not, with forged internals, how much power can the stock 2v engine block handle? Ive heard no more than 400 hp, but that seems low to me..

    Having ideas for possible motor swap...opinions?

    ohh, has anyone seen that carburated 5.4l pic people were passing around here? Anyone know the price on that? That would be different...(oh, by the way, I am finishing that paper from last night, so I am poking in here to continue my procratination...)

    Having ideas for possible motor swap...opinions?

    are the intake adapters incredibly expensive? also if i do go that route, will I still have to get forged internals if I plan on a moderate amount of boost? (on the 5.4?)

    Finally got my vid of exhaust combo...magnapacks & o/r x pipe

    Having ideas for possible motor swap...opinions?

    in the most recent edition of mm&ff (or 5.0 &super fords, i cant remember) they talk about a 5.4l swap into a gt and said that the amount of custom fab is minimal, and that the motor would bolt right in, and up to the existing tranny as well. did i read that wrong? I plan on getting a cowl hood...
