MSD coil packs
MSD plug wires
BBK twin 62 mm throttle body
60 lb. injectors
sct 90 mm mass air
EGR block off plate
Custom headers and 3 inch x pipe into Flowmasters
Wideband Air/Fuel gage
Boost gauge
Fuel Pressure gauge
BBK 255 lb. fuel pump
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator

BODY/CHASSIS
Flaming river manual rack and pinion and steering shaft
Tubular K-member
Coil overs in front
Steel caster camber plates

Lakewood 50/50 rear shocks
Rear tubular upper and lower control arms
Spec stage 3+ clutch, aluminum pressure plate and aluminum flywheel
BBK clutch quadrant cable
Ford racing aluminum driveshaft
373 gears

That is all I can think of right now, im sure im missing a bunch of other stuff. I know the car has around $30000 in it right now. The car made 487 on a really soft tune. It is maxing out the mass air and has a rev limiter set at 5400. With a upgraded mass air, more boost(at 14lbs now) and race fuel the car should make any where from 650 or more. PM me for any more info, I am in no need to get rid of the car, im just looking for something else. Also, I can't travel because I am going to school right now and don't have time to take off. Send me an email to jake_vo20@yahoo.com with your trade offers, or you can send me a text to 321-514-3641. Texting is easier for me right now because of class and work I cant talk

Sounds kinda fishy.

Says he has $30k in the car yet has a motor that makes power to 7000 RPM and then chokes it off at 5400 RPM. SCT 90mm MAF is the Lightning MAF. Very common upgrade. They dont peg out till 550 HP. Add a MAFIA (MAF voltage extender) and problem solved. A very cheap fix. Also,.. those motors typically make 425 - 450 HP with only 9lbs of boost,.. but his rev limiter might be the cause of that with 14 PSI. Makes no sense,.. instead of cutting the boost back,.. he castrates the engine RPM's. His tuner should be shot. I think there might be another reason why its choked at 5400 but I dont want to speculate what I dont know for a fact.

Yup a Lightning 90MM with Mafia can support a good bit of HP before the counts and Voltage are Maxed out! And what are Killians ported heads??

Stroked 4.6 (289ci to 300ci) 3.75 stroke
Fully machined 03/04 iron block ... this is what looked fishy to me, after the first 2 lines it looked like bs .

I'm of the opinion that its choked down to 5400 RPM because it still has the stock rods. 465hp is possible on stock rods and they'll live for a while at that HP level so long as the RPM's dont go skyward. The turbo wont shock the rods with power like a nitrous setup would,.. so it will live longer. Thats my guess. I would steer clear of that car with out any paper work and a guarantee with whats inside of it.

3.75 is the correct stroke for a 4.6 to 5.0 stroker. But its not a 289,.. its a 281 if thats what your referring to.

What gets me is that with everything done to it that motor should be making some serious NA HP. With 14 PSI it should be making 550 - 600 with the cams and everything he says it has. Castrating it to 5400 RPM because of a pegged out MAF makes no sense. If you can afford $30k you can afford a simple MAF fix. I'm not the most knowledgeable person,.. but even I know how to fix that problem. I think he's trying to keep it together at 465 with stock rods. Then letting the buyer blow it up on the dyno when he fixes the MAF and turns it up.

Makes sense if he's trying to get out from under it...
