Engine question

AnthraxGT · October 16th, 2007, 06:36 PM

I have been wanting a 07 Roush stage 3 mustang... I'm going to build it from stock, but i was wondering if this engine would be a good choice, this will be a street car but i will go to the strip

and i know you guys are the best to come to with these questions

are you trying to make a regular gt into a roush stage 3? is that what your saying?

Regency 2007 · October 16th, 2007, 08:26 PM

Get a 330cu Ford Navigator motor and forge it. Might be cheaper than putting down over 7 grand for that gas guzzler

yes

Get a 330cu Ford Navigator motor and forge it. Might be cheaper than putting down over 7 grand for that gas guzzler

a ford navigator?

Regency 2007 · October 16th, 2007, 09:36 PM

the navigators had 32 valve heads, fox body guys like to get a hold of them and build them up and add a poweradder to them

AnthraxGT · October 16th, 2007, 09:45 PM

can u get me a link so i can see one and its specs

06RedfireGT · October 16th, 2007, 09:50 PM

Just build up a 5.4 if you want a big motor. You could get way more hp out of that 5.4 cheaper than that 460, plus that thing weighs a ton.

Jucostud · October 16th, 2007, 09:55 PM

the navigator engine is the same one as the ford GT isn't it?

AnthraxGT · October 16th, 2007, 09:58 PM

that is an idea also, thanks red

06RedfireGT · October 16th, 2007, 10:00 PM

No problem. You could also have the 5.4 bored out to a 351. And Juco, it isn't the same. The Ford GT is an all aluminum dry sump oiling system 5.4. The Navi motor is iron.

AnthraxGT · October 16th, 2007, 10:16 PM

how much hp and torque would it have

GTron · October 17th, 2007, 11:39 AM

If you're just wanting to turn it into a stage 3, you don't need a new motor. Just get a supercharger Roush supercharger. That's all it takes power wise.

Go there for the parts and specs of the Roush stage 3.

Grabber427 · October 17th, 2007, 04:12 PM

If your looking for a crate engine why not stay in the roush camp?

With the correct internals and tubos up to 1000+ hp. But NA I would say about 425-500.

Roush S/C's are one of the worst S/C's for our rides...go for whipple, KB, or Saleen...you will see much better results
