Stroking my 6er

Juggalo_X · September 19th, 2007, 12:23 PM

been talking with my mechanic alot lately and he is interested in stroking my stang, he wants to get into this stuff. he is already purchasing sniper delta forces through me and he is really into tinkering. we are looking for a 4.2l crank but currently all we can find is 4.6l think this will work? i think the 4.6 is the v8 isn't it? if its a v6 crank can i stoke this bitch to 4.6l?

Yes the 4.6 is a V8 crank and you would also need rods and pistons you can find them here at the link below. There are a couple of other places also

I don't think the 4.6 crank will work for ya.

you could try shopping for Ranger parts.

my mistake... F-150 Crank

Juggalo_X · September 19th, 2007, 12:58 PM

Rods and pistons why? Im a lil ignorant on the stroking parts list, id be taking what i need for ma F150 so any one got a link to the parts list>> i know i need the crank and harmonic balancer.

rydog · September 19th, 2007, 01:02 PM

Yes you would need at the minimum new pistons and crank you are using a crank with a longer stroke therefore pushing the pistons further out of the bore you would need pistons with the wrist pin moved further up to compensate for the longer stroke

You can use your rods you have now

HMUSN · September 19th, 2007, 01:22 PM

MSO · September 19th, 2007, 01:49 PM

so what's the deal with the f-150 then?

they got a V6 you like?

HMUSN · September 19th, 2007, 01:51 PM

some of the F-150's have a 4.2L v6 in it and you can use the crank in the 3.8 mustang.

SSStang · September 19th, 2007, 02:38 PM

You could probably offset grind a 4.2L crank to 4.6L and be pushing it, but It wouldn't be very safe!

SSStang · September 19th, 2007, 02:46 PM

yah i know its going ot be a big job so we r thinking during the winter when i got it off the road and am driving my beater. i was thinking cam as well. but the problem is im still on the fence to weather im going to be doing forced induction or N/A while we had it in the shop i was thinking bout puttin aa windstar upper on it i know u can get them to work with the stock hood but its allot of work.

MSO · September 19th, 2007, 04:42 PM

but wud that crank be a direct fit?

cuz the 2.5 from the rangers is stroked but i cant use it cuz its a diff journal size
