Default heres a good one

I want alot of power with my sixer without nos

The 4.2l from a f150 i hear will work...is everything (wiring, computer, tranny, rear, engine accessories, alternator, radioator, fan) the same or i can use the original stuff.

Also ive read people using Tbird superchargers...will this supercharger bolt rite on to the stock 3.8 or if i were to go with a 4.2 from a f150. How much Hp will i gain from any of these setups

i believe the t-bird supercharger only works for single port v6's not split port. 4.2 is the best way to go or get that super six sport pack thing everyones been talking about. whats your budget btw?

although cobra232 will come in here with the justin runs a stock block with a turbo etc its not the wisest. Justin is a TUNER and can tweak his car anytime he wants. Your best bet is 7-8psi on stock internals....10psi+ you want to have the engine prepped AND INTERCOOLED

it all depends on what you have...each car is different. Do the math from what SSM says and Vortech
