4Valve or 2Valve?

cool, well let me see if i can get the tread, its been a while back

O and why are you interested ???? it looks like your set up could stomp a cobra lol.

My crank and rod's will easily fit in a 4v block, with the money I get from the parts I sell, I could get aftermarket cams and a new bracket for the blower. 4v is what I should have done to begin with, the same set-up on a 4v would be insane, and would have been a ton cheaper.

once you go 4v you will wonder why you didnt do it sooner.

True, but do a quick think... You already have the block... the 4v is the teksid. So just buy a locked up mark 8 or cobra motor and just pull yours and swap all the shit over that would be so easy and yea, 400 on a 2v is like 600 on a 4v ;D

That's pretty much what I have in mind, I didn't keep the cover and all the ancilary part's when I swiped the block (it came from a Mark VIII, lol), so I would pretty much need a whole motor.

shouldn't be that bad dude. O0 go for it :drunk:

I scored an Aviator motor for 700 bucks at the Pick in Pull up north a few weeks ago, haven't looked at it much since then, I'm so slammed at worked right now I just don't have time to research it, let alone do anything about it.

 

[voidfinger]

nice, but isn't that a 5.4?

 

[98stanggt]

aviator was a 4.6 navigator was a 5.4

 

[Jrgunn5150]

It's a 4.6, but I think it has alot more in common with a Mach one, as far as front cover/heads/etc, than a Cobra.

 

[98stanggt]

im pretty sure the aviator block comes with a forged crank along with the mach

 

[voidfinger]

ooo, ok. So is the intake similar? how about the head intake ports? are they like the 5.4 DOHC ports? thanks

I might look into that if i decide to stay n/a with it, if F.I. is the idea then the b heads outshine the C's :noes:

 

[Jrgunn5150]

The intake is of the Mark VII psuedo-Mach 1 style, I can't speak for the crank or heads, I have not opened it up yet.

 

[voidfinger]

hmmm, i think i'll just stick with the b heads. I find them more interesting than the c heads i like the imrc's , plus i'm thinking of a vortec down the road and the b heads are killer blower heads :dancing6:
