Default Forged Internals

I was just curious if anyone knows any reputable places in South Florida that do engine work like forged internals, etc. I am planning on supercharging my engine but I would like to have the engine built so it can easily handle more hp, so I don't end up blowing my motor. Also, does anyone know how much more hp the 2006 4.6L engine can handle if the motor is modified? Thanks!

I've read several articles that say anywhere north of 425 and its only a matter of time before your engine blows without internal work.

How much a forged bottom end on the 4.6 will handle will depend on the parts you put in. Most aftermarket performance-oriented internals will handle anywhere from 550 to as much as 1000rwhp. It just depends on the parts or kit you go with.

Also, and I hate to keep posting their website considering they're not a sponsor, but here is where I plan to go when/if I ever decide to build up my engine:

I just haven't found an online source for mustang engine performance that tops this one yet[&:]
