Reply to "Should I build up the original engine in my GT5S or keep it stock"

Jffr,

    I found a good cleveland block that is a 4 bolt main.  The guy that owns it use to build engines for a Cobra continuation guy and has a great reputation.  He actually knows the tricks that Bill Elliot did to his cleveland engines back in his glory days in Nascar.   We are discussing building that engine and doing all the cool trick stuff.  The biggest issue in my head is, it wont just be an unbolt and bold in thing.  Lots of brackets and pulleys to switch over..............hince my delima.  Might just switch cams, intake and bold on aluminum heads on my block and eliminate the swap as well as changing things over........

I have switched back and forth so much even I'm tired of dealing with myself........LOL  I will figure it out.........I don't drive this car, but would probably if it performed like I am use too.  I am a Ford dealer in the Kansas City market and have enjoyed HP my whole life.  This car is my 5th pantera but my first GT5S  which is what I always wanted.  The smog stuff is probably part of why it seems so sluggish.............looks awesome, just seems doggy.........
