All I know is that it is a customization of an engine part. My question is what major STOCK parts can be forged,ported (on a 5.0) to have some gains in HP?

Its basically like taking a small circle and making it bigger. If you do this to cylinder heads and intake manifolds they flow more air, and more air=more power. Forged is the parts in your engine like the crank shaft, rods, and pistons. Forged metal instead of cast metal is stonger. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Stangenthusiast77</b> <br /><small>Member # 6307</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,2,22,22,24,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> How about an exhaust header?
