there are several of us wiht boosted expy's only 2 of us with NBS ones though, get on you tube and look at the whippled expy, it's on a stock 4r75 transmission
Yea I've seen the one from BDP, its making like 600 HP, on a 2v, thats also a 2v, though I wanna get the OBS, 97-02 Version and swap out the 4.6L or 5.4L and put the Cobra engine in with a Kenne Bell.
kennebell did the same as you are wanting into a '97 F-150, when you get ready for teh swap let me knwo and I will help you with the bolt in piece interchanges, stuff a stroker crank in it (the 5.0 or 5.1) and hang onto your seats

Yea I could always get the 5.0 Cammer but its a real expensive motor.

not if you do it right, you can take a '03-'04 cobra motor and do basicly the same thing for a lot less

Really? Thanks for answering all my noob questions, I was just on modularfords, and saw a company stuff a wet sump Ford GT block inside a lightning, its pretty sick. http://www.modularfords.com/forums/s...d.php?t=121884

Just go with the GT500 Supercharged 5.4 liter. It is a 4 valve
Is it a direct bolt in? I want it to look almost like factory, I am just hoping the only thing I have to do is tinker with the ECU to communicate properly, I don't wanna have to heck anything up in the engine bay, I wanna be able to match up the harness etc.
I am sure this would be much easier for a 03-Up body style expedition, theres a member on here now doing it with his F-150. he said the only real issue is getting the ecu to communicate.
I have seen a Ford GT wet sump block dropped into a lightning I posted a link of it.

we all got to start someplace, I was there once myself now look at my trucks

I mean I really don't know what route to go to at this point, I want something that will drop in thats plug and play, and the least thing to do is tune the ECU etc. almost like a factory drop in, I mean I could always drop in the Terminator motor, and stroke it to a 5.0 and make it a cammer, but I don't know. But then I saw that Ford GT Aliumnum block. with a wet sump. built up in that lighting but that probably cost a fortune to build. it was pushing close to 800HP.
800rwhp isn't much, there's guys doing that on 2 valve trucks, paul or mike palugi (I forget his first name) made 966rwhp on a stock long block '03-'04 cobra
