Then I was misled :/ Another friend of mine knew the guy trying to sell me that 4.6 block with internals and apparently the crank was damaged along with a bent rod.... Screw that!!! Back to the drawing board...
Yep I looked into it when I found a set of cobra heads on CL for 250 then I found out all the other **** I had to change and said **** it.. Sent from my Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 2!
This might be a dumb question but if I were to buy a 4v (cobra DOHC correct?) why would I want/need to convert it to a 2V? I thought I needed the 4v heads so that the supercharger would bolt up correctly? I am fairly new to superchargers so am just trying to weed out the wrong information Ive read/heard.
I would find a Mark VIII and swap it. They came with 4v heads and are more available than the mustang's. I don't know why you'd want a 2v... sent from my igloo
I didn't know if I had to convert back to a 2v based off the previous posts. So the 4v Mark VIII's are basically the same set up as a mustang? As far as heads go?
Yeah. The intake isn't quite as good, but they're cheaper and easier to find than the Terminators Read up here difference between mark 8 dohc and cobra dohc engines [Archive] - Lincoln vs Cadillac Infamous Lincoln Mark VIII engine swap thread. Lincoln mark VIII swap - Ford Mustang Forums
i know Those links are a huge help! I will look more seriously into the Mark VIII and the 5.4 conversions
Did you know that the 99-04 Lincoln Navigators had the 5.4 with 4v heads? SN-95 5.4L DOHC Swap FAQ's - Ford Mustang Forums 5.4L DOHC swap complete! - Ford Mustang Forums : Corral.net Mustang Forum my 4v 5.4l swap thread - Ford Mustang Forums : Corral.net Mustang Forum
