your best bet would be to sell the car and buy a more powerful one if you want that kind of power. The 6 is cool and all, but lots of parts have to be swapped out if you run that kind of power levels, you'd be better off with a GT, or a corvette. Hell, sell it and bring home an 03-04 cobra.

wow that 4.6 for only 2.5k... thats just over 1/2 the price of a sc and im sure u can buy the harness and computer out of the other 2k, then just buy a tuner and have the same HP

do you guys think you could actually do the 4.6 swap in our cars? Wouldnt you need a new tranny...oil pan, computer, intake...etc? Would it really be worth it?
