    SCT Eliminator 4-Bank Chip

    Well Mike from Wolfpack is hooking me up with a Mac O/R H-pipe install and instead of buying $60 MIL eliminators I decided might as well buy a chip. How hard is the chip to install? What is needed to be done? Is there a noticeable performance/fuel economy gain? I figure I can get the SCT...

    Quick question.

    Dang this modular engine stuff is depressing I just want a fast street car. http://www.musclemustangfastfords.com/tech/mmfp_0703_ford_engine_performance/index.html These guys got 50hp out of those cams and I don't know how they did it. I'd like to be at atleast 325 crank hp. Dang.

    Quick question.

    I have a 98Gt stock at the flywheel they have 225hp. Now, I hopefully am getting PI heads soon, and after I get those before they get installed I am going to get Crower Stage 2 N/A cams, and aftermarket intake. I already have Flowmaster Cat backs, UD Pullies, and Cold Air intake. Is it crazy...

    04 Cobra engine

    Yeah I'm sorry about this guy and really I don't have too much respect for someone who likes Kanye West anyway. His story is fishy as hell. Back on topic, does anyone know where I can look for someone who has done a swap similar to this?

    04 Cobra engine

    I went and looked at the engine today. The car is completely totalled but the engine looks fine other than the timing cover is cracked, the head cover has a small dent/hole in it, and the Throttle body is chipped. I guess the engine has NO MAF NO Computer NO Wiring harness NO Radiator and...

    04 Cobra engine

    If the cobra exhaust itself will bolt right up to my midpipe then I'm set because I already have that. I'd like to go longtubes and no cats while the motor is out but I will have already broke the bank by that time.

    04 Cobra engine

    He has the exhaust system, but will everything bolt up to my car? Did any mounts change from 96-98 to 04? I don't want to get this engine and learn I have to get a new k-member or something stupid.

    04 Cobra engine

    Well dude is wanting $4k for it w/o no computer or harness but he might throw in cobra brakes and maybe headers in the deal. Is it worth it? Can anyone confirm my t-45 will work w/ a new clutch setup? How much do wiring harnesses go for these days, and what about the heat exchanger? Don't...

    04 Cobra engine

    I can do the clutch. Bad news I guess the car was totalled and the computer and wiring harness is done. Is there any logical way around this or should I just keep looking?

    04 Cobra engine

    What I was asking was could I put a t-45 behind it (assuming the 04 cobra already had a t56). What about the electronics? Will I have to get the car tuned? What about the computer chip in the keys, how does that work?

    04 Cobra engine

    You sure that the 04 cobra exhaust parts will work? He probably has headers. But what I was thinkin is that 96-98 cobra parts should work because its the same body and same engine basically. I found a low mile Cobra engine for $4k that I think will come with most engine parts less the...

    04 Cobra engine

    Alrighty guys. Some of you may know me as the annoying dude who wanted to drop a 5.0 in his 98 GT. I took your advice and passed up on it. Now I am coming across an engine worth swapping. I recently found for sale an 04 cobra engine with 27K miles. Now, along with the questions. This...

    Sound never hurts but I was doing it mostly for better performance at the strip.

    Educate me on cams

    What are the biggest cams I can put in my 4.6L (NPI, but maybe I will get PI Heads) without causing any problems? What are these "stages" e.g. "Stage 2 Cams" and what cams work good for these 4.6L's? Thanks.

    83 302 potential?

    Yeah I don't know if I feel like swapping the K-member out but, the reason being is my uncle used to be a mechanic abut neither of us have ever put heads and cams in a Modular engine so we are kind of skeptical and local shop wants like $800 or so I think to put heads cams and intake on my car...

    83 302 potential?

    I found an 89 Grand Marquis engine with a AOD that slips all for $200, I was able to hear the engine run because it is still in the car. What am I gonna need to swap this into a 98 stang gt and put a T-5 on it? My Guesses: Mounts from a 94-95 mustang gt 5.0 What else? Will regular mustang...

    83 302 potential?

    Well I guess I'll keep looking, too bad there are no pick-n-pulls around here that I know of. What cams and heads would I be limited to with the 83 block? Is the explorer engine the best way to go, even more than the 87-92 HO block from a stang? Are the heads better? Thanks. Edit: I called...
