yea thats nice, but to be quite honest i wasn't to happy with the 4v rout. I rode in a guys car with the 4.6 4v and it didn't interest me at all, he had a t56 and some really really steep gears and i felt like my car could have taken his off the line. but i really like the idea of the 5.4 b/c of a couple reasons. and forgive me i'm a lister. it keeps me orginized.
1) SNEEKY SNEEKY SNEEKY
2) SNEEKY SNEEKY SNEEKY
3) I've always said that ford shouldn't have lowered the CI of the mustangs .....what dip sharts.
4) I'd like to keep my auto and still feel some power and have a computer with a factory auto tuned in so i don't need aftermarket trans computers.
5) TORQUE TORQUE TORQUE
6) Well i'm running out of things to say but
7) $$$$$$ for a pretty easy swap and the gains for so CHEAP
8) I really want to be different.
9) I dreamed about me working on my car in like a year and it was a 5.4 2v with a vortec puting out about 16 pounds on a 8.5:1 Cr motor. Man i have some weird dreams but it sounded bad ass. My roommate said i was going roooom rooooom in my sleep lol. funny shit.
10) i want to feel the torque and make me go
Sorry, i'm just really looking forward to this swap. I need to go on and sell all that 4v crap and go on and get the 2v plates while they are 315 at RR. o and they still don't have gaskets lol. I going to look at a junk van and see if it has the 2v in it. if so i prob can get it for about 150 and rebuild it. I've heard that you have to do something to the oil pan to get the motor on it? could you explain? thanks
