I have been doing a little research on the same thing. I will be doing a 5.4, single turbo with Navigator heads.

There was an article in one of the mustang magazines about a guy who did this and had one seriously fast mustang, I'll look through my back issues and let you know which one it was.

Ok guys, that would be great, I am also thinking about doing a single turbo kit, and fabracating all the pipes my self. But first I want to swap the motor.

Why not just do a 351w based swap?

In the May 2003 issue of MMFF there is a article on a swap of a lightning motor into an '86 mustang...I'm still looking though as I think that I read about another one that used a non-supercharged 5.4 in a newer mustang. Can't find my mags though, my brother got into them LOL

The Lightning set up in a Stang, doesn't excite me. I have had nitrous in one car for awhile and still have a supercharged car. So, I really want a turbo set up and a 5.4 turbo would just be.....well.........frickin' SICK.

a built 5.4 DOHC. heres one. Brand new from ford. Not bad its only $4400 http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts...tKeyField=6889
It would be sicker to have a twin turbo 5.4.
