Reply to "4.6 3 valve install. 2008 gt. Anyone done one?"

Two years ago I installed a 04 cobra engine in the Pantera with a Whipple charger on top. Since I didnt want to move the engine and transaxel further back I modified the back wall and cut the rear window a bit (you dont see much out there anyway). Also used the power steering and hydro boost from the Mustang. The steering geometry turned out to be almost perfekt without any bumpsteer and very quick. Took a trip to the dyno and it came out at 460rwhp with proper mapping it will probably give around 500hp torque was 550nm. Also did not want to cut in the inner fenders for the heads because the bracket for the upper a arm is on the outside but it took some cuting of the heads to squees down the engine. The response from the new engine over the hole rpm range is fenomenal. Most of the jobb was to get all of these f....ng hoses properly routed, used 80 feet of them (unbelivable)So good luck with your engine conversions.
