1994 2v Block

[snowb07]

Can a 1994 2v Block be used with more modern heads. like heads off of a 2003 GT. What are the differences with just the bare block?

you can use it, but you would need to get a newer timing cover for that block.

yea, some parts will have to be changed. what war you trying to do? are you building a forged block from it?

 

[snowb07]

yes I found a good deal on one and would like to use it to build a forged block

well if you are referring to a 94 mustang 2v, then no it wont work. the 94-95 mustang uses a 5.0 (pushrod) motor. but if the 2v is from a towncar/grand marquis i think it should work.

I would assume he means an early modular 4.6L 2V in his post.

 

[snowb07]

yes it will be coming out of a crown vic

It only had 190HP....so it needs something lol

If I am not mistaken, the ealier blocks are not as refined as the newer blocks, less NVH developlment work, and a few other things that where improved over the years like oil passages and cooling things.

Yeah, it's crazy to think that the 1991 Town Car came out with the 4.6L engine....91!!!! Mustang didn't see it til 96. I'm surprised they didn't bring it ou in 1994 with the new body.

Im glad they didnt. Those 94/95 cars needed a 5.0...
