unless you want to lift the engine out its prolly a good idea u and ur friend dont do it!
Actually, it installs without taking the engine out. Just need to jack it up to get under the car. I know two guys that did the installs themselves on the GT.

If you go stroker -- you may not be able to add that much more boost. You are probably better off boring and going forged. I've heard that if you stroke it the rods won't be able to handle so much extra psi. I may be wrong, but.

I'm looking at forging and porting it out in the spring. Just wish there were more players out there. Also been looking for a coil pack for the 4.0 and no luck with it either

Guess got to wait another year or so....

just to clarify a few things.

1. The group buy will be done either by cashiers check or paypal, but if paypal is used with a CC, the fees have to be added to the purchase (since i am not profiting off of this, im not going to eat money).
2. The engine only has to be raised, not removed.
3. Sure it can be done by someone with mechanical knowledge in their garage with a buddy, but dont expect to do it in 1 day.
4. PH says it should take between 8-10 hours for install. One of their guys can do it in well under 6.
