    Most powerful boosted 5.0 you know of running pump gas?

    If you or someone you know of is boosting with either turbo or s/c on pump gas, how much boost are you/they running and what kind of numbers are you/they getting? Over at turbo mustangs they say 8-10 psi should be fine, but I'm sure there are many over that level of boost... what do you have...

    A 5.0 supercharger thread???

    First off... why is it that I go in the 4.6 forum and every other post is about what kind of #'s they got with their new Kenne-Bell kit, but I go in 5.0 forums and have to search for supercharger threads... only to find no results? Are you guys supercharging your cars or what? ... and if not...

    Do they sell low-compression pistons for the modular 4.6???

    I haven't seen any around. Would they be beneficial to any blower cars, or would they just be unnecessary for a built engine? Is there anything you can do with a low-compression 4.6 that you can't do with a stock compression 4.6? Like 30psi turbo + Nitrous or something? :shrug:

    too old for blower?

    If you had 100,000+ miles on your 99+ stang, if you just bought a new forged rotating assembly, would your motor pretty much be good enough to slap a high boost blower on it? ... or would a whole new short block need to be bought?

    14# KB + Forged Engine GT = waste of time?

    If you were planning on going forged, do you think using a 14# KB kit would be a waste of potential on a forged gt or would you recommend getting something like Kidd's NOVI setup and running 20-something pounds of boost? Would a 14# KB last longer than a 20-something# centrifugal, or is...

    new shortblock = new engine?

    Will swapping in a shortblock pretty much create the reliability and longevity of a new engine? What about new shortblock, heads & cams? Would that be expected to have the life of buying a new engine alltogether?

    alternatives to the almighty Nitto 555R 315/35/17

    What are all you guys using on your 10.5x17 rims? Are there any cheaper, longer lasting alternatives to the 315 nitto that you're using on a regular basis?

    forged engines = longer N/A life?

    If you were planning on installing a blower in the future, would forging the engine long before the actual blower install increase the life of your engine? Would you recommend forging the engine as soon as possible, and driving it until the blower install... or just driving it until you can...

    forging an old engine...

    Condisering things such as price, reliability, and most of all practicality... would it be a good choice to build the bottom end of 100K mile+ engine for the purposes of a supercharger? Would adding forged components to an older engine increase its reliability and lasting power, or would the...

    drone?

    I am yet to become a mustang owner, but am looking forward to owning one (probably used) in the future. I was just wondering what exactly this "drone" everyone always complains about actually sounds like. Does anyone have an audio clip or a video link where there is a clear example of the...
