What is the fastest/strongest motor I can put in my 99 F150 Xlt
I have a 99' F150 Xlt with the 4.6 vin w in it that is 4wd. what can I do to either make it alot more powerful or engine swap. as I am looking to make this a long term project if needed. I currently have cat back true dual, cold air intake, 285r70 17" tires and wheels and an edge performance programmer. any advice would be much loved thank you in advance.
How much money do you want to spend? There's a slew of intakes, heads, stroker kits, etc for the 4.6. I'd say supercharge it, probably the easiest and actually cheapest way to make a lot more power out of the 4.6.
Getting into the realm of swaps looking for power, if you have deep pockets, it's endless.

Dont currently have much, but I dont wanna buy any parts that will(shoot me in the foot) IE I may be replacing them again later. where would be the best place to get a stroker KIT? and what all electronics would I have to change?
For the most power in a swap search around for a lightening swap. Most of the motors can be found for fairly cheap compared to other options to get to the same power level.
where can I find a DIY turbo kit that will fit the 4.6L VIN W? and where can I get the right exhaust manifold?
You build it yourself. Either use the stock manifolds with a y-pipe and run a remote mounted turbo, headers with y-pipe and remote mounted turbo or fab up some forward facing manifolds with a merge collector and an under-hood turbo. Getting it tuned is the 'hard' part.
Do a google search of sts turbo. They sell universal turbo kits, that can be mounted under the rear of the truck. Saving space under the hood. A few of my friends have these and they love them.
