V8INtheZ

Ive thrown together a handful of Ford swaps. All of them are still driving around as far as I know. Done 302's and a few 2.3L Turbo Fords, however Ive sold them all but will be building another soon!

Its already been posted for you what years to look for. Here in CA the 1992 Mustang also had forged pistons. There are a lot of builds off these forged roller blocks making 300HP with worked over GT40 factory heads and the right cam carb and intake.

Ive done this swap into a 240z 3 times now. The best one was pushing 400hp and still got over 40mgp. Made for an incredible car. Im thinking about doing it again in the next coming months.

I think all that would accomplish is less braking and handling and a ton of added weight

Wow, looks like that thing has a pretty violent launch! Im curious to see what the engine has done to it, since I have a very similar car.

Woot! Got mine in the mail yesterday and they are almost too pretty to install! Thanks again to the both of you!

Just a heads up, the 351C engine is not a small block like the 5.0/302 is.....

Thats the thread I was thinking of

There is a member on the forum that had pictures posted of a 4.6 in a 240z I think it was. It fits but just barely. There are several companies now that make stand alone engine harnesses for the 4.6 and will reflash your ecu. Has to be done to get past the factory anti theft system. My next Z is gonna get a supercharged 4.6

Whoa, we are still talking about machining right? Lol

Cool action shot with the metal chips flying through the air

Awesome, thanks for responding quickly.

So datrod do you have any rough idea of when all the pieces will be finished and shipped off to Johnc? I know things happen, but I just want to plan ahead. Do you think it will be a week or a month is the answer Im looking for. They look awesome and I cant wait! Thanks

Swap in a V8 with an electric choked carb

So John, do you have any kind of time-line for run completion and payment and such? Not expecting any concrete days, just need to plan my finances as I will be buying a pair in the first run. Thanks
