i don't think they could have. you slap a vortech or procharger or any centri blower on, and you have to really really really watch the tune. pull a bunch of timing and give it tons of gas too in order to get a reliable (relatively speaking). same exact thing as with a roots or twin screw blower. its just the compression, crappy internals, and aluminum block.BensBACobra said:ford couldve easily SCed your car reliably. a roots/screw blower isnt the most reliable method for our cars since the 03/04 has VERY strong pistons and rods compared to ours, but an intercooled Vortec or Procharger would work rather nicely, there are MANY 96-98 and 99/01 SVT's around with SC stock motors. are you suggesting SCing an 11:1 CR motor is JUST as easy as SCing a 9:1?

Mine doesn't...codyGT said:A LS1 will make power up to 6,000rpm
A DOHC 4.6 may be able to rev past 6,200rpm but it isn' making anymore power past 6,000.
Both engines sweet spots end around 5,900rpm
