Hi I'm Brian From central Florida. I don’t own a Mustang but I do own a Ford. It’s a 2000 Crown Victoria. It’s slow, But not for long. I managed to score a free 2003 5.4 SOHC out of an F-series pickup. So it’s going into the Vic. Along with a 5-speed manual, and every other go fast Goodie I can find. I’m keeping my build N/A and I hope to see around 420Hp at the crank. It’s a 5.4 so I’m not very worried about weak Torque output. I was told to come here by 96blackgt54, who is also on the CrownVic.Net with me, because there seems to be a fair number of Mustangers that have done, or want to do, a 5.4 swap. I hope to read some good tech articles. I know the 5.4 and 4.6 have a lot in common. My build as of now hasn’t got every far due to money issues but I’m working on that.

Why a 5.4 over a 4.6. Well, Torque was a big factor seeing how I have a big car.
The second factor, There is no replacement for displacement.

 

Welcome

 

Welcome Brian, Sounds like a plan!!!!

 

You'll find a really long thread in the 4.6 tech section devoted to us swappers.

There's like 10 guys here now with 5.4's already in their car or currently installing. I love mine to death. You'll really enjoy it. Mileage doesn't drop much either.

 

Many months back someone on the CVN board posted the 5.4 topic from this site on the CVN board. I have kept up with it ever since. nice to know you guys love the swap.

 

Welcome to the site CV's are a sweet daily driver for sure.
