that should swap in the 04-08's too right?

has anyone seen that swap?

or a newer 5.0/5.8/6.2 swap in the 04-08?

i was thinking last night how cool it would be to have a raptor drivetrain in my 08...

 

how so?

 

the ol' eaton un-ported and un-pullied won't do well past 440ish


with a lil' massaging and a pulley (leading to MAF and tune upgrades) 500rwhp isn't unobtainable from an Eaton M112



and while the Eaton install into a "normal" F-150 isn't a true 100% bolt in


it's not very difficult for a knowledgable individual






BUT it is much much simpler than the coyote instrument cluster issue resolution in the '97-'03 F-150's



ask me how I know

 

For that much money a guys could build an engine buy a supercharger and all and it would be way better. Good if your doing a NOS restoration but otherwise an expensive deal..

 

I told you I'd help you if you were "back home" in Tx

 

Because there over 400 horse without....

 

Thanks for explaining that, - I didn't know the Eaton had a, - sort of unofficial HP limit. I do now lol. I suppose you would then upgrade to a Whipple, Kenne bell, or Magnacharger to achieve a goal of 500 hp.

Yea, there's no need to ask how you know... Not here anyway

 

yes, even the Magnum powers motors need cams and compression changes to obtain 600 rwhp

 

Yea, I think Joey went that route and was in the 500's. He built it from the bottom up tho, from what I recall. Nice build, - think he sold it?
