        Lol, you guys crack me up.

        4valves, cross flow head design and a penthouse combistion chamber. That alone is worth the money.

          Oh and, for you all saying I can't handle the power or o to a 4 banger.

          I thought that if you get bucked off a horse the best thing is to get back on.

          I don't live my life in fear. Sorry.

            All stacked up on top of the motor which is right where you have to cram another 30-40lbs of supercharger bullshit to make it even worth talking about. You actually think a 5.4 makes sense $$$-wise to put in a fox car?

                  man you need to learn to be coachable. take it from me as being fairly young myself and having lived a few hard knocks don't ask for advice and then tell every one they are dumbasses for giving it to you. you get more bees with honey than with vinegar.

                  as for your budget, your crazy. i comend you for wanting to do big things its more than some people can say but you are out of your ever living mind if you think its cheaper to get 300 hp na out of a modular 2v than it is to do a pushrod 302.

                    Was bucked off going atleast 130.

                    Learned that lesson pretty quick.

                      2v?

                      What the hell.

                      Mach 1 has a 4v.

                      I come here asked a simple question that hasn't even been answered.

                      All I got was people arguing what I want with my car. I asked a question and got questions in return. I am very coachable. Being coached and having people argue with you is another.

                      I want a aluminum 4.6 4v in my car. I don't care if a 351 will make more power, or will run faster with nitrous or a turbo. I didn't ask which was better. I asked what it takes to throw a modular into a foxbody.

                      If people would answer my questions instead of looking fr reasons to call me out I think we wouldn't have an issue.

                      I asked how to fix my shock tower and got 3 pages worth of horseshit. Enough shit brooks took it down.

                      What does it matter what and why I do stuff to my car. If you don't agree don't post, or post your opinion without trying to make and ass out of me. I treat people with respect and get shit in return. I respect the people here and what they have to say. And I don't get that in return.

                      And not being able to afford something isn't going to stop me from achieving my goals. I'm not easily discouraged.

                      You all have a nice day.

                      4v 2 cams is better then 2 valves and 1 cam. And if you dont believe that you have no room building a performance engine. Facts are facts

                        Cheaper option for the 4v. Buy a mark viii cheap.. Keep the motor, engine harness, ECM, and Efan. Then scrap the car. I believe scrap is back up to 400$ a ton.

                          It would be sweet to see but have you thought about putting a turbo on the 302. I know someone who threw a turbo kit on his and made good power for not alot of money.

                            Those are aluminum right? I Would have to swap to Mach or cobra heads tho

                              Those heads are as good as you'll need. Do more homework. Preparation is going to be key here. FWIW, it's also a Teksid block, so it's the toughest of the production aluminum blocks, unless the Coyote is tougher.

                                Fact. All ford v8 modular motors with the exception of the new 5.0 are total shit. The main things you need in order to put one in fox car is a hard head and money.
