Horsepower TV is building up a 347CI engine for a stang

[pwcracer]

I am always tivo'ing that show, they work on stangs a lot. They just put a vortech SC on a fox stang about a week ago. This engine they are building now is awesome.

Two things are gonna happen

1 They will spend a TON of money

2 The results will be less than desirable

How many times have you seen them spend an unbelievable amount of money for a project and get all excited about a very small gain.

There was an old show were they modded a 94 GT, and I remember that they did everything so assbackwards with the car that a huge thread started on here and a bunch of people wrote letters in to the show.

since you are tivo'ing it, do you mind posting it for us? Or is there a good website where I could find the listing for the show?

i hate watching that show just because of their ignorance... those guys are actors, not mechanics... at least get someone in there that knows what they are doing.

that motor is for a truck on the 4x4 show after it, but those 2 foxes are pretty sweet

I think I remember them dynoing that engine. Something like 375 at the crank. Seems to me a well put together stock block with h/c/i can do that. They definately wast money. I cant watch that show anymore.

Are you talking about the episode where they start it by showing a black fox, and a 93 R? If anyone noticed, he was talking about the 93 R and said they made 109...dumbass. It was 107, I've read from many sources it was 107, I somehow doubt his fat ass knows something that Mustang mags don't.

I find the show entertaining, but yea, they somehow find the most expensive way to the least gains that I've ever heard of. I love when they get done dyno'ing and theyre like "...yea that's a gain of about 25 hp and 10 ft/lbs, and it only set us back about $2,500, (insert bad joke/pun or GM guy vs. ford guy sh** talking here)"
