V6 engine swap

SSStang · July 30th, 2007, 12:28 PM

Well Chris the PROBLEM with that motor from precision is:

A.) its built with a pretty high CR
B.) and they say not to put much boost on it

itschristorres8 · July 30th, 2007, 01:07 PM

im sure they can build it with a lower CR if requested by the customer

At the price of like, another grand!

006leenstang00 · July 30th, 2007, 05:08 PM

ah they'll knock a bunch of money off iff u tell them you'll put precission stickers on ur car!!hahaa j/k... that would be tight though!!

006leenstang00 · July 30th, 2007, 05:10 PM

but still $2500-3000 for an engine like that is a pretty good price... but there's nothin like that 03-04 cobra engine.. that things just too nice to pass up at the right price...

Onemanzu · July 30th, 2007, 05:55 PM

a grand for different head gasket and if you get pistons built to your liking installed then you can get almost any CR you want...

03-04cobra = too much work.

Yeah but new custom built pistons are like another 800$ pretty much ends up coming out like a SSM motor.

you know i've always wanted to do that with like a v6 firebird/camaro

02ponypackage · July 30th, 2007, 09:59 PM

i was chillen saturday at the fuelslut corner...and this 240sx starts pulling in im like wtf...so i hear this quick throttle and rumble coming up the slant to get in since its small in height but steep...i thought it was another car...it was the Ls1 in it hahaha

Onemanzu · July 30th, 2007, 10:57 PM

why would you need custom pistons?? im sure that the 3.8 is the only engine in the world with that size piston head... im pretty sure some one has to make it after market ya know... im sure that you can find a high performance forged piston built for a low compression ratio

Agreed, the 03 swap is badass, but I am in the middle of putting in a 2 valve in my fiancee's 1994 V6, and all the crap that had to bhanged out to put the Mod Motor in is insane!!! I have posted a thread- the link is below.

i know everyone here is pretty hardcore, but sorry, i'm going to be happy with about 250 - 300 rwhp......this 160ish is killin me...

sadly i know what that is going to entail with this car, i figure instead of going 4.2, just do a lightweight forged internals 4.0 (check Morana) for quicker rev's a lil lower compression. Top it off with single intercooled t3/4 turbo (best option) or hopefully if someone comes out with the kit by then bolt on the M112 (cheapest option) with the right tune, fuel system upgrades i'll be a happy camper.

Nobody makes them.
NOBODY!

Onemanzu · July 31st, 2007, 10:39 AM

nobody? what the fuck why not??

their are so many performance companies out their its sad to see that no one has picked up on the mustang internals

could you have them use some from like morana or ssms who happens to have forged pistons that will fit ... that might even be for a lower compression ratio

Ole Yeller · July 31st, 2007, 10:41 AM

DIDN'T YOU READ IT!!!

HE SAID NO ONE! DROP IT!

Onemanzu · July 31st, 2007, 10:59 AM

but its amazing that no one does... fuckin flaw in the industry... is some one has a metal shop and wants to get rich... start grindin out forged internals for the 3.8

Ole Yeller · July 31st, 2007, 11:03 AM

i believe morana and ssms make them
