Why dont you just put 03-04 4v heads on your block and save alot of money?

If you are staying N/A, I would bump the compression up to 11:1...

What intake manifold do you intend to run?

 

[blubullett]

I wouldnt buy that unless you are planning on putting a bunch of spray on it. It would be a bulletproof n/a combo but to me paying all that money for forged internals and not putting a bunch of boost (with the n/a the comp. is too high) or nitrous on it is a waste of money. You could put 4v heads on your stock block or get a junkyard 4v motor for a lot less and have aroung the same power n/a. I would get the supercharger aluminator (with pi heads it would be close to 9.0 to 1 comp) and pray for a blower someday. Or send it to me and ill tell you how it works

if you are seriously considering this swap, please seriously consider using long tube headers instead of shorties...

Didn't think that was possible

Edit: Nevermind. He has a Cobra, not a GT...

From what I am reading you are basically buying an aluminum block with STOCK 03-04 heads/cams, and beefed up internals. Problem is, the compression isnt even 1 point higher than what your car came with stock. Work on the piston selection to raise compression, or just opt to buy a supercharger. IMO< you are going to be spending thousands on that engine and having minimal gains

I AM PUTTING THIS FRPP ALUMINATOR BLOCK IN AN 03 GT, not my cobra.

will my 03 GT computer and wiring harness work with this new aluminator 4v block??
