Default new motor. rwhptrq range?

I bought a rebuilt 4.6 motor which was bored 30 over. all the internals are from Ford but are stock like any other 4.6 2V. The intake and exhaust on my heads are 1.76 and 1.43. I just bought a carbon fiber JLT Bullitt cold air intake, have an xcal3 handheld tuner, and 36 lbs. injectors. shes getting tuned next week on monday. any ideas of possible rwhp/trq?

What other mods do you have? You do not need that much injector unless you are supercharged. Otherwise stock injectors are fine. Boring isn't going to give you much hp, maybe a few. Your heads are what takes advantage of that. What kind of heads are those?

its not expensive to have the blower rebuilt. send it to vortech and have them make it a T trim. most people would give a left nut to have what you have.

247whp!

as said before bore does almost nothing, if anything it may change your torque curve a little but not too much.

Couldn't have stock pistons if it's bored over. I am assuming he just means crank and rods?
