Huntsville Engine and Performance!
They are located right by my friend's shop we go to after school a lot... I pass that place all the time. You can hear them "testing" their cars down a long straight road by the shop.

That is one SICK stang man.

Also all thse mods extend or hurt engine life? Awesome car by the way I am just trying to learn =)
Man I'll never shoot you down for trying to learn. You'll hear the term "forged internals" a lot and that will get you no power over stock BUT the strength for added power later from f/i. I went with a stroker that gives more power and strength by adding a longer stroke of the rod. As far as longevity goes it's all relative. If your running big boost on a stock short block it's a ticking time bomb in my opinion

BBK Under drive pulleys - $250
ported and polished heads - Huntsville Automotive
custom ground Crane cams - Call $800 +-
Eagle stroker kit w/Eagle Armor - Starts at $2200, check suppliers for current pricing
BBK Long tube ceramic coated headers - $470-550
BBK x-pipe w/after market integrated cats - $440
Magnaflow Magna-pack exhaust w/2 3/4" mid pipes - $550
Zoom twin disc clutch, Zoom aluminum flywheel, & pressure plate - $880-1200
Pro 5.0 Short throw shifter - $290
Fidanza 1 piece chrome moly drive shaft $600+
Pro Urethane Bullet motor mounts - $170
Xcalibrator 3 Tuner w/custom BB&T Racing tune - Module - $300, tune depends on your shop

That's all between 7.5 and 9k, but there is a lot of room for variables because some things you already have, or you might go with a different exhaust, etc. You could do it cheaper no doubt, but I got a great deal
Thank you very much. I like the name of the Eagle stroker kit (have tattoo's of eagles) but I have not read much about them. You hear alot about Mahle and Manley (I know need to do my homework) from Livernois motorsports but IMO why did you chose the Eagle parts? (Other than the deal?) thanks

Lol well no problem. If you step out of our 4.6 world they have a really good name so I felt confident in their track record. I really like the fact that my kit required no clearancing but I haven't looked into some of the others since I've only seen them offered in built short blocks. Mahle is a piston manufacturer if i'm not mistaken, being that Eagle offers them in some of their rotating assemblys. That's another perk, you can buy an already balanced assembly and after the block work you can really put it together yourself if you felt so inclined. I also didn't see the point in buying another block when I already had a perfectly good aluminum one, and i'm kind of having fun doing something that most people don't to tell the truth I'm quite impressed with what this motors capable of. And Eagle was also the first to the 4.6 market, so it was really my only feasible option at the time. And you can also pick up a few extra hp from a new polish they are offering, I picked up 15-20 over the last 4.6 stroker my builder made

Yes sirrr, only options it didn't come with is the 3.55's, heated seats, and the electric mirror.

Just think how quick those speeds would come with some 4.10s... but honestly right now the gears end to soon anyways
