Im upping to the 4.2

99v6stang · September 30th, 2007, 12:26 PM

Alright so today im starting the task of bringing my mustang back to life with the help of an 99 f150 4.2l. I blew my engine up installing a cam, and have now purchased a 4.2 for $600 with 100,000 mile ( i know it has high miles but these engines are hard as fuck to find). So Anyways i already have 4.10s, trak-lok, Sniper tuner at 91 octane, full dual exhuast including long tube headers and h pipe, Ported and Polished intakes, Morana racing b spec cam, new springs and pushrods, and i will be getting the heads ported before i drop the engine into the car. So im hoping to be done with this by next weekend and i will let you all know how it goes. I am also wondering what my next mods should be? IM already planning on getiing a cai, but after that what do i need? Bigger throttle body? Electric water pump? Underdrive pullies?

Are you going with bigger injectors?

OK so let me get this straight from being reversed...u had all this stuff for the car but now asking about getting a CAI ? and throttle body ?....hmmmm........just like i would say with the other guy claiming all this internal work and intake manifold work then asked about getting a CAI Im suprised u wouldnt know about the product already or about the throttle body....or woulda been in the car before you got to doign full exhaust,forged internals,cam,P&P upper and lower intakes....and w/e else thats missing

Um actually im not joking but you can be a douche if you want. I never said forged internals so obviously you didnt even read my post. Also i was not asking about getting a cai, i simply said i was getting one. I had already ordered one off ebay but it was shit and does not fit at al. I was asking about the throttle body because i heard people say that they dont really add anything. That is why i come on moddedmustangs is to get my questions answered not have some asshole tell me i dont have the stuff i say i do in my car. But anyways would bigger injectors be needed? I thought the stock ones were fine for up to 300horsepower unless turbo or supercharged.

I would say get rockers while your at it....

Are you planning on staying n/a? Or what type of power are you trying to make?

if u put rods inside they must be forged rods because i see no point on putting rods in...i dont mean u have forged pistions and crank

we get enough people saying they have all this upgraded stuff then say im getting a CAI with a t body then ask the gains ? just doesnt seem to add up...
