    Engine Mod Questions

    Well, first off you should start out by getting a ride in a 400rwhp car. I understand the desire to shoot higher, but 400hp is a lot of power on the road. Also, the twin setup will require things like an aftermarket K member and a LOT of work and $$. Also, to build a fuel system to support over...

    Where to anchor hoist on 4.6?

    I always run a chain around the engine mounts (between the block and the mount) then up either side of the engine to my leveler... then a small strap around the harmonic damper up to the hook on the lift so the engine doesnt rock around. I would never trust a horizontal stud or bolt with my...

    Pre Vortech Install Question

    the vortech pump flows way more than the focus pump. focus pumps tend to burn up as well. Go check out Kenne Bell's website for more info on it. I'm currently laying down over 600HP w/ a 3 year old vortec pump. Also, they ARE the correct style pump for the 99 and up cars. many people say thay...

    New Rear End Break process?

    although not the preferred method, I bolted my backup diff/ring gear in after breaking it @ sebring and preceeded to finish the track event balls to the wall. It's still in there now 5,000 miles later.... no issues. normally, 500miles of light load using Dino oil, then change fluid...

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    I think your problem is with your MAF, even the 90mm maf will peg around 450rwhp... MAFia will help you out a lot. Fuel filter is a no brainer... also look into a Kenne Bell Boost-a-Pump for added peace of mind. as for the injectors, I have run the 42's up to 600rwhp with no issues, but...

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    I'm not here to bash on the KB. They are great blowers. I owned one. Until I got tired of getting spanked by centuri's. And now I ditched the centuri for a turbo. All are great. I'm just pointing out that the "massive low end power" of the KB isn't as massive as it sounds compared to the...

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    :lol: :bs: Pix? Vids? oh wait, how about a pic of you at the dyno w/ your car making 500hp Or a vid of your car with 4.10's, street tires, and 500HP launching. slipping a clutch will not allow the tires to grip past their limit dumbass. Also, you assume I can't drive. Please...

    Here's a Vid...see what you think

    depends on what actually happened to the alternator. I have had a regulator die in another car I used to have, so the alternator was pumping 30V through everything, ECU melted along with a bunch of other stuff. Normally, when an alternator dies, the car will run for a while on the battery, then...

    Subframe connectors? What part is this

    I run 315 DR's with no rubbing. I wouldn't remove them unless you have some upgraded rear suspension parts. if there is a rubbing issue, just flip them around. They are there to reduce wheel hop.

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    Nice man, seems like you have your ducks in a row. Best of luck with the new pulley. You will love it. Also, if you're any good with a drill press, you can vent that pulley and reduce the belt slippage a LOT. The holes are 5/16" You want to drill them so that the holes intersect the bottom...

    Stock 2v shortblock, pretty impressive

    Just dont blast the stereo at WOT.... Voltage drop is a bioch on that fuel pump. Running lean sucks.

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    I was simply putting 430hp to the wheels... You have the cash to do a 4V swap but cant seem to have traction issues with 4.10's and a vortech?... you might want to slap your tuner. like before, totally unrelated to this thread. send me hate mail in PM form.

    Stock 2v shortblock, pretty impressive

    mustang dyno's tend to skew towards the high end. I would be interrested to see what you would make on a regular dynojet. Impressive none the less.

    spining the vortech faster with alum.

    I don't mean to question you, but you are using videos, and hearsay as proof... There is no way to validate either source or to see what they are using for mods, or what type of tune they are running. I stand by my statement that I have physically produced more power from the vortech than...
