yeah what kyle said or just do what im gunna do hit up junk yeards for crashed f150s have them start the engine listen to it make sure you dont hear anything bad with it (ticking knocking) and if the price is right buy it....im set to go look at a 4.2 he wasnt 500 for the hole thing which inlcudes the "yanking" of the engine and local transport....thats if the engine is fine...has 80k miles....

That will run you another 5-7k... So you looking at around 10-14k for a 500-600hp car...

8400 just for the motor seems to pricey imo anyway. When you can build that same kind of motor yourself. Im just building mine up myself now i can do most of the bolt ons myself, gonna be fun to see it come together its a project so saving money is a must for me lol.

i agree but supersix can make up to a 375 hp motor N/A which is pretty nasty but that is with 11:1 compression so power adders is not really an option at that point.

I was just wondering supersix has a pretty cool SSX3 split port throttle body 75-90 mm. Would going for a 90MM TB be overkill because 75MM is a pretty decent sized TB?

Even if this was true the motor would have a very high compression ratio probably exceeding 11:1, you wouldn't be able to throw a FI on top of that unless you want to blow up that motor and start again.. THe built motor from super six has 375 HP not RWHP and that is at 11:1 compression ratio. What are the specs of this motor they are building???
