They are simply options to complement the units you would be purchasing.

All those parts offered as part of the options are already in your car only less powerful and efficient. Wouldn't hurt to get them and it wouldn't fail to work if you didn't.

 

Damn, very very true.

Anyways, there is one crutial part that has been forgotten, the clutch, remember, your stock clutch is only good up to so much rwtq. What you need to do, is figure out exactly what route you want to go, then get a clutch that's going to meet your needs. http://www.autobadges.com/ sells Spec clutches, and are very good I might add, so once you figure out exactly what you're going to do, the clutch should be one of the first mods on your list. A short shifter wouldn't hurt either, not really a performance mod, but makes that damn 2nd to 3rd shift 10X easier.

 

i would go 4.2 or 4.3 stroker and a powerpack. then later on you can f/i that beast when you get a little more cash.

 

thats what I was thinking today while at class, wouldn't it be best to put to powerpack and stroke it out to a 4.2 or 3 and tune with a diablo before going FI. since if i went with the powerpack and FI then later went with stroking it out then it would be a much bigger hassle?

as far as the clutch goes how much rwhp/twtq are we talking about having when all said and done if i went with the stroker idea and powerpack mid to high 300s? I know the block can take almost 500 safly but not sure on the clutch. oh as for the shifter i forgot to mention already bribed my father to get me a steeda tri axle so that should be more tehn good right?

thanks again for all the imput thus far guys, very helpful

 

V6 clutches are different than GTs, and don't take as much rwtq. Personally, I'd get teh Stage 3 when you get the stroker kit, and ported intake. "IF" you get both at the same time, you'll be in the Stage 2 range, but if you plan on going F/I, then you'll probably need a 3.

 

Oh, yes, you just buy the stage kit you want for a 99-04 V6, because both the V6 and F-150 intakes are the same.

 

Heres an idea, sell the six and put the 9 grand twoards a gt. That right there is your best bet

lol blackout you beat me to it

 

Don't forget about subframe connectors or any of that stuff. Goto MaximumMotorsports.com for that stuff. They have kits for street, strip, track. .. and if I was you, I'd get an 8.8 rearend. When you're going to be making a **** load of power as a daily driver, you'll want a reliable driveline. My dad reminded me that, you could have all the power in the world but not go anywhere. Just some advice.
