to awnser ur question about who pulled my motor, it was greenvalley ford in fairfield u pulled it.i took it in for a warranty claim and they pulled the motor to check the pan and warranty said they werent touching it cause they said i "modified the car".which i didnt touch anything in or on the motor.what happen to the motor was 2 bad rod bearings.since i didnt know that i could fight them and demand they fix my shit i said give me my money back for the warranty and give back my car and motor. i then brought the car home and then i sent my motor to my friends shop in sac.and a year later i have thousands of $'s into my shit. i know how to put a 5.0 motor in a car or a small block chevy buy i never put a 4.6 in a car yet. maybe it aint that hard buy then again i didnt pull the motor and i dont know what wires go to what and shit like that.

hey sorry to hear ford did you that way but like I said If I can and when your ready I can give you a hand your like i said its not that hard well I dont find it hard any more I feel its easier to work on the 99+ couse you dont have distributers or spark plug wires
but just let me now when you expect to have it and I can try to make some time to give you a hand
also are you putting long tube headders

Javier, According to Vortech they say that the 2.62 should get me well into 14-15 lbs of boost since when a 3.12 i'm already seeing 11 according to the guy that sat in the car when he was doing a dyno run and its probably around 6 thousand RPM..What do you think?? Im not worry about the boost just making enough horsepower and hopefully with 15 lbs im well over 400+ ..dont want to get to greedy..
