350 rwhp is pretty steep for a NA motor, at least in my mind it is. unless u get the tuning and everything perfect. but correct me if im wrong.
when do u plan to rebuild? im planning on keeping this ole girl until it literally falls apart or burns up. i want to do a turbo setup on it and run it in the street class, but thats just plans for now.

 

im doing the rebuild as soon as i get a second car. it'll be one 100% underhood, flipped headers and all.... none of this remote mount stuff.

i dont know when im getting a second car but not until something im working on takes off...

 

I'd love to know how you think you're going to get 350 rwhp out of a 4.2 V6 N/A.

 

yeah im not seeing it either! Not even with cam, heads port-polished, get a power pack from SSM that makes around 90hp then exhaust might net you 5hp intake another 5hp and an Xcal 3 Running on performance setting with 93 Oct. 42's injectors, 255 Feul Pump you are going to be at MAYBE 250 and thats a BIG MAYBE.

TJ is at 270ish and he's running 8psi... but that is a stock engine. I would love to see it though!

 

4.6 3V S197 Mustangs, like mine, get around 360 rwhp with full bolt ons and a set of cams. The 4.6 3V motor in the S197s is one strong motor as well. Also they are putting out about 450-500 rwhp with forced induction. I'm sorry to shoot it down but I don't think your 4.2L 2V is going to come close to those numbers. The 3.8 V6 found in the "new edge" Mustangs is actually able to put out larger numbers than the 4.2L with forced induction. The 4.2L doesn't really put out that big of gains with mods. I'm not putting it down or making fun of anyone so don't take it wrong, either. Just being informative.

 

theres a guy over at v6f150.com (Orangethunder) that has 450rwhp/50rwtq. he has a turbo setup that was tune DOWN to 12 psi and was still playing with L's... i can try to post some vids!

cant take the vids but ill give you a link! theres 3 vids!

yea i stumbled upon these the other day actually. the guy has an AWESOME truck, and raped most of the L's he went up against. But i think that the whipple held him off just enough. thats still a BA 4.2 though

 

his used to be an L clone too... it looked HELLA badass... Lamborghini orange++

 

The new v6 stangs have 4.0 if thats what your talking about

 

+1

 

No, the "new edge" is the previous body style, and they had a 3.8L. Sorry about the confusion. The new S197 has a 4.0, correct, my girlfriend has one. Stock for stock, they are MUCH better than a any V6 motor that's ever gone into a Mustang. Forged internals from the factory ...

 

Yea i could live with a New v6 stang, they run great on boost.

 

Good reads.

i plan on getting 350 becuase right now im at around 215 and with the power pack i will be at 300. with forged internals and the right tune i could achieve 350 or more and that is N/A. the base horsepower for my engine is 202. i have a cold air intake and full exhuast. these numbers are not absurd and there just guess right now, until i get the parts and get it dynoed and tuned. there not concrete but i think i will be able to achieve them.

 

so your saying because the stock base hp is 202, with intake and exhaust your now at 215?
