Does anybody know of performance intake manifolds for the 5.4L 3v motors? I finally found heads from Pro Weld, but having trouble finding intake manifolds.

 

I believe that these are not yet made as these motors are not commonly used for radical hi-po applications. I know that some people swap this motor into Mustangs but I do not think that there is much out there as far as major core components. Tell ya the truth, I am really surprised that someone manufactured cylinder heads for it.

 

they use oem heads to work from.

that being said, the manifold is composite and flows quite well.

 

I figured that they were not quite the "performance" variants that people think of when they envision Edelbrock heads or something along those lines. Are the heads worth upgrading to on a truck? A drag strip is not a common home for a 5.4L.

 

it the drop had drop shackles and a whipple blower, i would work the heads.

 

Those are the ones I found, the Pro Weld heads. That's why I wanna build up my truck, because you just don't see these trucks on the strip. I don't care if it ain't a 10 second truck, I just wanna lay it on some unsuspecting car junkies that think all trucks are slow. I'm doing all the basic bolt on performance parts first then saving money to do the hefty engine stuff. Supercharger, heads, cam. Also, if any of you have seen the Squires universal turbo systems, do you think it would be possible to run a supercharger and one of their turbos on the truck? Or maybe even an application specific turbo system with the sc? I don't think the second would work b/c of room in the engine compartment, but I could be wrong. With the universal I could run it back by the exhaust like they did on Trucks with the red Lightning.

 

check here i think they might have something if i remember correctly

get the heads worked, get some comp cams, and FRPP's whipple blower...get it dyno tuned with SCT software and get a higher stall convertor from circle d.

 

tell me why i just got excited reading this thread.

 

only thing different i was looking at was custom tuned diablo predator. but i have to research the sct, i only briefly looked at it. and i was having problems finding trans stuff, and most people told me to just get the heavy duty trans from premier in mesa, az.
