I thought 298ci was the max you would want to go with with our block?

Why is there a different part number for N/A vs Supercharged? Are the pistons a lower compression ratio for the supercharged kit? If so, what ratio is each kit?

:drool: I AM IN LOVE!!! MY NEXT MAJOR MOD!!!!

I have been reading about this kit and was wondering if any clearance work in the block needs to be done? Anyone know?:dunno: Or is it purely a bolt in?

If I remember correctly, anything higher than 298ci will cause reliability issues. If I really wanted a 302ci, I would buy the crate motor directly from Saleen or just get a 2011 GT.

Well, I don't see any reliability issues with the PJ Saleen. And that car was a 4.6, with this kit added? :dunno:

I don't think they just poked and stroked it. I think they did some other stuff to it. I remember watching a video about it.

If that's all they do, at least you have a warranty with the PJ.

I am intrigued. I wish someone could find some of these answers.

5.0L...Drool!!! How cool would that be!? Probably looking at another 5k with install...DAM!!


Edit- I want this!!!

302 is fine, Livernois is the only company I've heard say that they use 298 because of reliability issues.

this is a sweet conversion.... Would love to do it. Stock looking from the outside. A set of thumper cams to round out the deal.. Jeff, your car will sound awesome when your done..:)

Frank, PLEASE DON'T TEMPT ME!!! Work is slow, so the funds are there right now. Maybe in a year, as I said I would let the ESP on the car kick-in after the factory warranty expires before I "crack open" the motor! :nice:

My good friend has a PJ and he also has a copy of the MM & FF article that shows the COMPLETE teardown and build-up of the engine once they get the cars from Ford. I wish I had the article or a link to post, so we can read what they did to it. Let me search Google. :nice:

I did find a article on the car and motor work. Check out the link below. Page 1 and 2 have the info. :nice:

If memory serves me right, I think JDM does the same as well.
