Re: 97GT4.6's summer project

Def sounds like the motor will be a strong one. Good idea to switch out the springs for sportlines. How do they Maxspeed run anyway??? Post up some pictures when you get a chance. Since you will have a PI conversion try a bassani mid pipe or a pro chamber with a slp LM II.

Re: 97GT4.6's summer project

I currently have maxspeed springs in the front, and a prokit in the rear with no iso's. It's so low in the front, it bottoms out alot, so i want to go to something a little bit taller. I might trade for some magnapacks..

I decided that i probably wont even need 24 lbers right away, so im gonna wait and maybe get some bigger injectors when its blower time.

Re: 300 hp N/A build with 100 shot..

Long story short, my neighbor hit my car, and damaged the fender.. it got repaired and looks awesome, they installed my cc plates for me, and painted my door as well.. looks good.

I also installed the new rag joint that cost me 25 bucks shipped, and it fixed my steering play.

After i drove it 20 miles back from the alignment shop, it felt like it was gonna fall apart, it hit bumps so hard.. thought it was a ball joint but decided i blew a shock. time to install some on thursday.

Nope, but they were degreed.. checked the clearances and it was all good to go.

Thanks. I'd have to go with cams AND a blower.. they are high end cams.. it drives like stock till 3k, then hauls ass up to 6 +

OMG! I am so getting cams! Sounds soo good.

I basically have the exact same build as you with Zex And SCT.

Got the cobra hood to. :)


How was the cam install with the motor in the car?

Re: 300 hp N/A build with 100 shot..

it wasn't done in the car.. we took a crown vic bottom end, and put pi heads on it, and then put in the comp 270s, then dropped it in the car.... decided to take out my old 165k bottom end and replace it with a 27k mile fresher bottom end

Mines out right now to but I have everything to get it done in the next couple weeks, I can't afford cams and valve springs right now, and that really sucks. lol
