hi, i have a friend that has a 99 mustang and we r going to build an engine with from the block up with the supercoupe heads manifold and supercharger. we are also gonna be doin some internals to ofcorse. my question is will the heads bolt up to the block, ive herd from some pretty big mustang guys at a school specifically for ford that the heads will bolt up, ill worry about the wireing when i get the engine in the car but has ne 1 tried this and if so does it work. i need someone who has experiance with this. and i need to know soon so we dont go waistin our money on somethin that wont work

arent those camaro heads? why the hell would they bolt up? i seriously doubt it, but you may get lucky i dont know shit about new camaros and especially v6's

i think he is talking about the t-bird supercoup's supercharger.

no it will not bolt right up and you would be downgrading to a single port fuel system.

it will work with a lot of fabbing but it's not really worth it.

from what i have seen the v6's tend to respond better to turbos anyway.

that s/c is more then a bitch to install and put together, not to mention a waste of time and money if your gonna be building an engine that puts down 300hp or a bit more WITH A S/C!
i can build a car that'll match that n/a and no nitrous

Thats a no-go the supercoupe s/c's only bolt up to singleport intakes which is 93-98 V6's

even those require something like 40+parts

[ByPopularDemand]

Yeah it would still be a pain doing it to a singleport, but a possible pain

[camaroandjeep]

no, i know that the sc will not bolt up to the mustangs heads, but the block design is the same except from the enternals, im about 90 percent shure that the heads from a ford thunderbird supercoupe will bolt onto the block of a 99 mustang, i just wanted someone else that knows about this to put their input on it.

You could in theory tear the 99 engine apart, downgrade it to a singleport, and lose 50hp, THEN do your supercoupe build...I dont see why though

[04musclestang]

just fucking blow the v6 mustang with a turbo or s/c and run that boy dry dont downgrade to upgrade.. its not worth the hassle cuz my car would beat a supercoupe and mines n/a

No go on the supercharger. Drop a 4.2 f-150 V6 motor in it. They are fairly cheap and can be stroked for big horsepower.

THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!

[ByPopularDemand]

There are a lot of better ideas that could be done

[04musclestang]

put bolt-ons and a shot of nos is the simplest way to be fast.. the everlasting power is in teh 4.2 or.. 4.3 from ssms

[camaroandjeep]

you guys have relly helped me out alot and i thank each n every one of u for your time and thoughts. my last question is though, what are you talking about with a single port? i dont know about the heads that much

in 1999 the v6 got upgraded from single to split port... added 50hp in short, the supercoupes are single port and you need that to run that particular s/c so you instantly lose 50hp

[pooterstang]

hey 04 musclestang, What is ssms. A web site no doubt, but iv been there i think and Im trying to find it again. Sorry this is off topic.

[scubasteve041186]

k yeah the head will swap over but like they said above you need s single port not a split port.. when you look on top of the engine it;s the top manifold. wither it will look like two pieces or just one big one... obviously you can tell which is which.

It's not just the heads that caused that jump of hp, it was also the upgraded fuel system, and I think a different cam.

But you also have to realize that the fastest v6's around are single port.

If you want a roots style supercharger, you should try to fab up the supercharger from the terminator and get it on your sixer. It can be done, just takes some fabbing.

[AtlanticBlue99]

with the lower intake, heads, and fuel rails, thermostat, and several other misc. parts, you can make the 99+ splitport (2 intake ports per cyl) a singleport (1 intake port to feed each cyl) such as the pre-99 essex ford v6 motors.

however, you could spend less money getting a supercoup motor and wiring harness and simply dropping that in.

your best option would be to elaborate on the split port flow and either get a procharger/vortech kit, or stroke, forge, and add nitrous. turbo is still an option, but will cost much more...
