V6 Power
#46
Dont get any hp from forged internal, unless you up the compression, but in your case you will go lower for the FI.

im sry i got so defensive. its that everyone i talk to underestimates the 4.2l and i want to show them that it can be built to keep up with the big V8's. im not looking for a 10 second truck. But im looking for a build that i can be happy with the power and take it out cruising and have ppl be impressed with it. Maybe i wasnt real with the numbers and i apoligize. but ive torn the engine apart and have added the power pack and put in the forged internals am talking to a guy about the turbo setup. Im also trying to find a plce where i can dyno this thing closer to where im staying. does anyone know of a good transmission to bolt to my engine that will be reliable and stand up. Id preffer a manual but im not sure im going to be able to find one.
