    408W Build. Am I forgetting Anything?

    Looks like fun. Why giving up on the turbo?

    Amazing looking engine. +1 on the oil filler neck needing to be addressed.

    My thoughts on Summit Racing...

    They have definitely been one of the fastest shippers I have dealt with.

    Would you buy a 69 351w block?

    Yes I would buy it. When getting ready for my 351W stroker, I looked a few months for a '69 block but couldn't find one that wasn't way over priced. I wanted something a little stronger than a newer 351 block but didn't want to pay for a Dart. I bought a Dart.

    408 W combo?

    I think doing switching to a 408 that would meet your needs is going to cost more than just upgrading your block.

    Florida registration question

    Florida abolished the emissions testing program back in 2000. Thank God.

    Anyone have a TKO 5 or 600?

    In addition to the feedback from this thread, I'd suggest calling someone at Promotion and/or D&D and running your goals by them and seeing what they think. Promotion didn't steer me towards the most expensive option, in fact they suggested the cheaper of 3 transmission options once they had...

    A 5.0 or a 5.8 foundation..

    I picked 351W, but I think you need to clarify what you're looking for budget wise and goal wise. If I were building a cruising car, I would do a dart based 331/347 with a mild cam and a big turbo on it. I built my '92 as a 2-3 times per month cruiser so I had a dart based 427 built with a...

    351w stroker question

    I'd go 408. Rick actually put together a 427 dart blocked motor for me. 10.4:1 compression, PS/AC, and a 5 speed transmission. Puts down 467rwhp/471rwtq and has pretty decent street manners. No track times yet because it goes back under the knife to get a TKO transmission put in this week.

    Anyone bought from MGW lately??

    I'd send threatening emails and leave threatening voicemails saying you are going to SUE!!!

    Does Ford think we're Stupid? 315 horse? what the hell!

    Some forged internals, a big twin screw blower or turbo and 700hp+ to the rear. I think Ford has made it too easy.

    '95 Cobra engine done. I need your ideas for a swap.

    As above. I'd go with a early '69-74 351W block based 408W and a small amount of boost. I think your goals and budget are a little at odds unless you want to make the hp with a small shot of nitrous. I built a dart based 427W stroker, and I am around $10k into just the motor and swap...

    What do you jam when you cruise the streets?

    Took the radio/CD player out of my car. Listen to the sweet tunes of the motor.

    '92 427W coupe finally on the road

    Not sure how long it will hold up. Did the easy 500 mile breakin period and now have about 50 miles of "spirited" driving on it.

    '92 427W coupe finally on the road

    She is a blast to drive. Future plans involve replacement of some minor cosmetic stuff like cowl grille, armrest, seatbelts. Then installation of a TKO transmission to replace the stock T5. Then safety equipment for the track like driveshaft loop, harness, etc. Finally, will be putting a 200...

    '92 427W coupe finally on the road

    It will roast the tires pretty good even from a second gear rollon. Sorry about the transitions. Maybe I'm paranoid but I wanted to blur out the video whenever the license plate became legible so that is why I used the pixilate effect at two points during the video.

    vid/pics of my 410w

    Probably ~30hp peak difference between the procomps as they sit and a set of AFR225 or similar. Probably a lot better power band with better heads as well. I am in no way disappointed with the 467rwhp I got out of the procomps. I was expecting somewhere just north of 400rwhp. Are they junk...
