Default Hey all MF 4.6 folks

Hey everyone....just checkin in. Hope all is well. I will be back on here more so if ya need anything...gimme a shout.

My life has gone in some crazy stuff over the past year and through it all...I survived......yet again...lmao. Anyway now that I'm getting settled it's time to get back in the game.

A new Silver Bucket is right around the corner. Either a '11 GT or a 99-04 GT. I have been looking at some of the progress and parts for the new edges and I have to say prices have dropped. It would be really cool to build another new edge and from all I have learned between the Bucket and the Black Hitch, I think I could definitely put something together really nice and fast.

Then there's the '11 GT. they are just insane and with some minor tweaks they are a solid mid 11 second daily driver. Decisions decisions. What are y'alls thoughts?

Finally.....its good to be back and thanks to all for letting me post this.

'11 GT is going to get my vote. Just a single 64mm turbo on 6psi made like 560/640 to the tires. I've seen a stock longblock '11 gt make over 750rwhp with an f1c I believe. Or f1a. But it was freakin awesome man.

Or how about a new edge with new 5.0 in it? Lol

Higher compression with ported heads and aftermarket cams should get you close to 500rwhp or more.

You could build one hell of a new edge and still be cheaper than the 11. It would take a little more time and effort. Kinda depends on if life is gonna give you time to build. Can't go wrong with the 11 either, more money but very little work and you are kickin' a lot a** out there. Glad your back!
