Right, I believe the 3V NA numbers are real close to the lightnings. Love to do that swap, -I'm not sure I could make the 3V work in my 2V truck.

The 2V V10 is cake. BUT, big difference in numbers from the 2V 10 Vs 3V 10. Not really interested in the 2V 10, - not after seeing what that 3V can do NA.

To bad we never saw a 4V V10. Not that would have been a beast! The lightning would of been quite a few truck lengths behind.

I don't know about that. Sure , if you can keep them running right.

Ford got away from the 4V and went 3V with it's own different set of problems. But when the 4V's are running right, it's a great engine...sing it now, -money money money monnney..

MyFXProject should have his new engine sitting as close to the truck as possible , -since he's not installing it yet. It should help with the blending.

I was mostly curious about the base of it because a lot of the cars you see for sale on ebay claim to push 800+ hp,must have a pretty solid base for that.
