Hey.
that was me.
And the PI upgrade was more than just heads:
" ...upgrades which included cylinder heads with improved port and combustion chamber designs, a more aggressive cam profile, and improved intake manifolds . This upgrade was known as the PI (Performance Improved) package."
As such the spec went from 220 HP / 265 TQ, to 231 HP / 293 TQ ( at the crank, BEFORE factoring in the ~25-30% driveline loss)
So - you'll have to walk me through the math, because I don't think 300 HP is achieveable with a head swap on the 4.6 with yer current mods.
Perhaps an engine guru could help me here? Fatherford? TJ? Jbrew? GLC? What would he have to do to get 300 @ the crank, all motor?
Thanks!
I'm an ***! But I wanna learn, so I can be a SMART*** !

Best to start a new thread in the Engines section where all the gearheads will be much more likely to see it.

You guys have it all wrong. You need to get a 4.2L. We have the highest HP per cylinder of all truck engines. I raced an SRT-10 the other day and kept up with him all the way to 100 and then I hit my "go baby go" button and flew off into warp speed.

Chill guys. HA HA HA HA. (i do like the flux capacitor, damn it i wish i had one). With the tundra we only went up to about 60-70mph roundabout. (side by side) It's my gears(4.88's) that kept me with them. And it gotta be from a dig.(extremely low gear) My top speed aint ****, above 60-70 i aint got nothin. He's faster than me but we were right beside each other in that short distance til we hit the brakes, we didn't go above that. (He was a 4.7 i think)

I wasn't saying i was FASTER(my top speed is only about 85 cause i need a speedo gear). Acceleration too 60 i was or even. Ya'll think im like a 16 year old who thinks that just bc his speedo in his civic goes to 140, his car will go 140. I knew all about the pi heads and the fact that Fords mod motors boost VERY well. They gotta have FI to make alot of power out of these motors.
I don't know everything by any means, but give me a little credit. Im not unrealistic stupid. ha I just recently got my gears and i'm super happy with'em. And That 4.2, with a flux. S***!!! Good idea!!
