stuck again

SWEET2KSTANG · December 9th, 2008, 08:22 AM

well, i had plans laid out for the car's build but like anything else i am stuck again

i am parting out that cobra of course, and that termi motor on the stand looks so sexy and temting. i was looking into doing the trickflow heads on the car, but that termi swap is starting to catch my eye the more i look at it. i like being the under dog that pisses people off, and if i did the termi swap i would totally go sleeper. plus i would spend all my $$ on that motor set up, nothing left for larger blower etc.

do it.... you already have the built rear & trans to support you... just sale the stock blower for a ported blower. wouldnt cost much more

PapaSmurf · December 9th, 2008, 09:08 AM

Thats a tough decision...

DiZzyBonne · December 9th, 2008, 09:43 AM

Well a 4v is gonna outflow the Trickflow heads no matter what, and thing of the future possibilities! In reality though, what's your ultimate goal?

Smoothgrandmama · December 9th, 2008, 09:49 AM

I has whipple . . . . You like?

MyGT · December 9th, 2008, 09:51 AM

I would take the termi engine in a heart beat. Ultimate sleeper.

untill they hear a blower, I dont know to many cars with blowers I consider sleepers, and even at idle those blowers arent exactly quiet

njstang · December 9th, 2008, 10:01 AM

do it man, rather than spending alot more time and money on a different build, you pretty much have something with awesome potential sitting right in front of you. simple mods on that 4v will def wake it up and to see it in a gt will be awesome, i say go for it

It's not like a centri, you really only hear it once you get on the gas.

Then once they hear the eaton screamin, they'll know what's going on

slow02gt · December 9th, 2008, 10:05 AM

eatons are extremely quite at idle you can hear anything at all..i would do the termi.. bottom end already built,blower already, youhaven everything you need sitting right in front of you.. you do a pulley and tune you will be at mid 450 almost 500 to the wheels, you spend 2grand on those damn heads you will be at 350 ish.. i will buy the termi motor if you dont want it 50 bucks lmao

SWEET2KSTANG · December 9th, 2008, 10:17 AM

building a 2v isnt that high, and for the $$ spent on it i could have a hell of a 2v. that 4v is very nice/ if i do it, i will port the heads and probably change the pistons as well.

Do it.

SteviGX · December 9th, 2008, 01:37 PM

do it sweet. do it and dont ever look back!

03_StangGuy · December 9th, 2008, 02:08 PM

Im glad I I dont have to make this decission, haha.

buddyantunez1 · December 9th, 2008, 02:22 PM

with your nitrous kit and current 2V motor, your running really good times but the 03/04 cobra motor/trans has more potential but if you run out of money for mods you might be back pedaling a little until you can mod the 4V motor.

rk_2000_Z/28 · December 9th, 2008, 02:57 PM

As long as you have the motor already and plan on swapping out the pistons, than sounds like a good idea to me.

ChrisJ · December 9th, 2008, 05:33 PM

Do the swap...

No question IMHO...

06RedfireGT · December 9th, 2008, 05:54 PM

4V > 2V

No matter what heads are on it.

Mach Boy · December 9th, 2008, 07:27 PM

Put an LS1 in it.

SWEET2KSTANG · December 9th, 2008, 08:56 PM

i would love to, but the trans wont bolt up, i have too much in that trans to just let it go. i want to see what those trickflow heads are going to do, see if they are the rave everyone is thinking.
