Got a 4.6 for the Future

9986paulk · February 27th, 2011, 11:03 PM

Well, I posted a similar thread in the modular section with my plans since I don't know a ton about this engine yet. Anyway, I got a 2001 4.6 complete and with an auto trans. with 12k for $1500. I'm most likely going to pick up a complete manual swap kit for a GT too this week for $650. It has 90k miles on it, so I'll at least re-do the synchros if I even want to stay with the stock GT 5 speed. Don't know how good of an idea that is since I'll be doing some kind of FI(turbo or PD blower) and maybe heads/cam.

Most likely, i'll still be completing the TT kit on my v6 and running that for a while just because I want to. Then if I'm going turbo on the GT I'll just keep those 2 turbos and sell the rest of the kit to lose the least $. I just have a little bit more modding of the piping to do for the turbos to fit as it is. Then I have this engine/tranny ready to go and, most importantly to me, a manual.

I'd really like to see that TT build finally done.
