need input from performance buffs
Hi All
Well I’m new to posting here in the forum, although I’ve been a reading the posts a lot lately.
I guess I’m looking for advise on the aftermarket upgrades I am currently purchasing. Right now (1st wk Jan.04) The engine (5.4L Triton) is in the machine shop getting balanced, bored . The heads are getting exhaust porting and spark plug inserts
I’ve already purchased the following;
JE Pistons -17cc dish 20 over
Manley H-beam rods
Comp cams 102200 (1:14)
Comp cams spring kit
Ford sprocket, spacer kit
ARP bolts Main/Stud
Cobra high flow oil pump, pickup tube
Billet trigger wheel
Cobra oil pan (7qt) & windage tray
main bearings / rod bearings
Auto Meter Gauges (Intake 2ch temp, Exhst 2ch temp,
Trans temp, oil pres., Boost/vac.20psi)
The following is slated in the near future:
DynaTech SuperMaxx 1 5/8" long tube headers
2 high flow catalytic converters ?
2 flowmaster mufflers ?
1 X pipe ?
BBK 75mm throttle body
ATI Procharger kit(stock 9psi boost)(polished)
Diablo 3 stage chip(2 custom)
Optima battery
BBK chrome valve covers
I’ve been looking at the infamous Level 3 Interceptor for the 4R70W, but I waiting for a quote from a local race shop first.
My trucks been down since May 03, I’ve done a lot of research on all of these parts, and most of their competitors as well. I have never done a build up like this, and would appreciate any input, suggestions or comments from all the Ford guy’s(and girls) out there.
Thanks to all
