There r a few things that I disagree with u on \
First 6 speed trany
Any auto to manual switch is a real pita, and it being a t6 or t56 even more so
Also a 6 speed is extreme over kill for a near stock v6 until u have a large amount of hp there I no need for 6 speeds

Second the larger throttle body
A wais of money unless u have the upper intake ported

Also the gt bumper looks nice but definitely not need
as u ca nsee here


For the CAI get an eBay one and throw a K&N filter on no sense paying all the extra money just for a name

the way i see it is youre still a newb to this site too so chill out. ebay CAIs are fine, alot of members here use them and have no trouble whatsoever. the air youre getting from the k&n intake will seriously result in about .25hp more over the ebay intake

Before I got a H-Pipe and duals on my car I had a single Flowmaster 40 split to look dual. It sounded just fine. It simply gave it a nice rumble without bein overly loud. I went with the dual setup only because of the increses performence and sound.

So exhaust that are not true duals still sound good imo.

Sorry kid but your wrong
A built auto thats tuned correct with a properly chosen torque converter will always beat a manual

You dont have to have a gt bumper to have a dual exhaust
thats retarded
it can look just as good if not better without one
A cai is a cai, just get a good filter.

supercharger it? Vortech?
how about
you could go that way with a centri charger
turbo
adapter plate and then really shoot big with a twin screw style supercharger
dont bother with a throttle body now
you dont need more air if you dont have more fuel to match it.

I need to know your plans

you can see 400+ rwhp if done correctly and thats without nitrous.
do you wanna spend little money and be happy
or are you willing to thow ten grand in it?

if your thinking engine swap
would it be a 4.6?
if it is then dont bother
buy a gt
but
if you plan on going with a 351W or even a 302
than it wouldnt matter cause almost the same stuff that would need to be replaced in the 6 youd need to replace in the gt

yea i have a 6er without the GT bumper and it looks fine... i also have an ebay CAI with K&N filter witch also works fine and personally if i were to do an engine swap id get the fords 4.2 built for your car. its a direct swap and youll have a 6er that will keep up with if not blow away stock to lightly modded v8s

I'm not sure who you're talking to but for me i'm not sure how far i'm going to go with the car. First thing im doing is building up the systems other than the engine-tuner, exhaust, ud pulleys, shift kit, better spark plugs/wires/coil, either a gt rear end with 4.10 gears or just 4.10 gears and T-Lock for the stock rear end, underbody stiffeners and a suspension kit. If i have the money after that I plan on stroking it to 4.3l with all forged internals getting new heads/cam/valves/rockers/pushrods, then getting a 70mm throttle body and then upgrading the whole fuel system so that it could handle a supercharger. The supercharger would be a Vortech V2 and it would definitely be intercooled but thats a long way off in the future.

[Baker02125]

sounds like a good plan

[Hourofpain]

4.3l is pushing it imo

if you are going to do these upgrades then dont get the 4.10's and dont bother with a t-lok... get 3.73's at the most and get a truetrac or something stronger than a t-lok. the t-lok wont hold that much hp. it would be adviseable to upgrade to the 8.8. everythign else sounds good... dont forget the dyno tune.

this guy has not clue what he is talking about.. DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY OF THIS!!!

44's are actually quieter than the 40's

no CAI will get you 10hp, ebay or K&N and the ebay cai is just fine

if you go with the vortech V2 you have no need for CAI because the vortech comes with it

you do not need the gt bumper for duals

no need for the throttle body unless upper intake manifold matches size

sniper tune or sct recommended... both are excellent

a 4.2 out of an f-150 still isnt even close to blowing away any STOCK GTs, unless were talking fox bodies.

correct.. didnt see the post you quoted lol... the 4.2 will give you more power but not enough to take on a gt. OP would still need mods to be able to do that.

w/ full bolt ons and a 4.2, than you could maybe stick with a 99-04 gt at least, beat it tho, im still not to sure about that

[Onemanzu]

and why is that? there is no overly large amount of boring between the 4.2 and 4.3 from ssms... they are literally the same block if bored over three hundredths... and the 4.3 long rod is infact stronger then the 4.2 ...

that is all

a lot of people like to argue that a properly built 4.2 with a low compression ratio and a great tune can beat a 4.6... now if you were to pump up the CR to 10.5 and run high octane fuel and tune it you could easily run with the big boys... and im not referring to stock GT's

please stop making attacks on other members, telling them that they are newbs and wrong for having so few posts... especially when the information that you are giving out is not true information...
