would a 5.4L block be better to build something on, with upgraded rotating assembly and what not? but assuming its the 5.4L short block with the heads it has to have the 4.6L assembly right?

I run an electrical supply house, so I know how to fake slips for customers and whatnot, I had told him that its just going to be a list of things for the motor, kinda like a wish list...with what Im putting together from stuff this motor is lucky to to push 280ish plus whatever the spray is going to add.

 

heres the ebay page that he listed that car with pictures

the 5.4 is a better platform just b/c of extra cubes, but its a ****load stronger than the 4.6 block too.

 

Ive read its actually a **** load weaker than the 4.6 thats why ford added an extra 19 lbs of Iron in the later years. That engine doesnt really look any different than my npi engine.It looks like its sitting at the same height with the same intake manifold too. Wouldnt you need a different intake manifold on a 5.4 swap?

 

i am guessing you got swindled, i doubt the 500 hp claim even with the 5.4. can you even put the 2v heads on the 5.4? most guys use 4v ones after that swap. i hate to say it but that thing is a joke.

 

From what I've read on this forum and others, he got had bad. I'm trying to tell him karmas a bitch. thanks for the input that you were able to give me. from what I understand he did PI swap, but I dont see any real evidence that he did that, I think he just put a dry spray system in but whatever...thanks guys

 

He's been had! That's a 210hp with N20 hooked up to it. Also, the 5.4 as stated earlier is NOT a bored out 4.6L, it's a completely diff block all together. It's stance is like 3" wider. Yes the 5.4L heads are exactly the same as the 4.6L's. They are interchangeable. Also, 48miles....LMAO theat motor looks like it's never been touched!!! I hate scammers like that!

 

thats looks like a bone stock 4.6 with nitrous
