With my truck becoming more of a project and less of my daily driver I want to start building my motor some. I've done a few bolt ons 3" cat back exhaust sct x4 custom tuned and that's it as far as motor work. I'm thinking I want to get longtube headers maybe cams and down the road get a supercharger. I'm very new to this and you guys know much more about this stuff then I do so what do you guys think? I'm not looking for a street racer just some more power want to maybe be around 350 horse without sacrificing reliability and longevity if the motor and truck

Have you been following [MENTION=92839]MyFX4Project[/MENTION] ? Ideally only 40hp when stock but the logic of swapping a motor most people would upgrade yielding more power, cams, ported heads, etc. You may lose some bottom end tq from the 2v..depending in how its built.

I thought about that too but coyote 5.0's are pricey still. Would be a sweet setup though.

I'm sure one could do that but I'm just interested in a drop in crate motor. Maybe long tubes and camming it

I want to get cams for my truck. I want it to have a good rumble to it. But not so aggressive that it be like a hot rod where you can hear when every individual cylinder fires a puff of exhaust. Just like a mildly aggressive rumble
