And what's all included in the kit?

I've already got a 255lph fuel pump, a lightning sourced 90mm mass air, and a set of 39lb injectors from a previous project that never got off the ground.

Stop talking to whoever told you that crap. I drove my 4.2L (stroked V6) all over the US. Longer stroke means more power out of this set up, and a lot more torque.

PI heads are for the 4.6L SOHC V8 motors, not ours.

The stroked out version of our car is the same V6 that came in the F150's. They had 4.2 V6's stock, so theyre wrong. It can still be a perfectly fine dd. Get a cam spec'd out by Tom from SSM if you do get one and porting of the heads or lower intake can help make higher numbers with an M112 and cam. You might see more tq with the 4.2 but I wouldn't pay that much money for it unless it was all forged (except crank) to handle the hp when you want to up it close to or over 400.

When my COST goes up, so does the price. It's not like I increased the price just for the heck of it.

Everything but a tune, 25% UDP, and a boost gauge.

Please don't post the list that I first made. I originally asked for it not to be copied or reposted because it was going to change pretty frequently (and it has).

I didn't post the link. And I didn't say you started charging more. I know it started costing more.

Forged has to do with how the parts are made, stroke has to do with the length of the "stroke" (up and down distance travelled) of the piston, referring to the crank.

The biggest issue with a vert is structural rigity. Get rid of those cheesy factory subrframes, and get some good Kenny Browns or something welded in.

Yeah, you really are no heavier than a friend always riding with you.

Based on a 2000 sixxer.

Coupe with a 5spd 3064 lbs
Vert with a 5spd 3203 lbs


Like Ryan said; stiffen that thing up.
