Going to forged internals...what to get?

ltsmash1200 · April 22nd, 2007, 01:19 AM

I'm not going to be doing this right away but I'm going to start saving money for it. I was just wondering what your opinions were. I'd like to supercharge my car in future (04 GT) and I'd like to do it safely, so I was looking at forged rotating assemblies. I would probably get the forged internals and have them installed and then later buy a supercharger and have it installed. You can either get the standard 4.6 forged rotating assembly, or you can get a stroker. I figure I would rather get the stroker, because then I would at least feel a difference after I had the stuff installed before I could get the supercharger. This, as opposed to getting the standard 4.6 rotating assembly and spending all that money on it and having it installed and not feeling any difference.

This is my question:

What would be the advantages and disadvantages of the stroker with the supercharger. Would I just be better off leaving it at 4.6?

Thanks

get the stock displacement and what kind of power are you wanting. if i was going to be doing it again, id def go with abig bore instead of a stroker

Probably only about 350 at the wheels to start, I definitely wouldn't be going over 450

probably 350hp??? and wont be going over 450hp??? why you want to forge already? i am right around 400rwhp on stock bottom end. i will be going forged, but probably wont be till next year.

Yeah, I'm paranoid I know. Like I said, I'm going to go to 350 for a while and then probably up to about 450, I don't really think I personally need anything higher. That being said, once I get there I may decide I want more. I like doing things right, the first time, and not having to back track to fix things.

+1 for doing things correctly the first time! It saves money and time!

Exactly, that's why I want to go forged first.
