just wondering how a stock 2000 R with only the block switched to aluminum and an e85 tune, might compare to your genlll and genll builds with 85 and tune, on the track? all three on the pole...
just remembered Jim Feuling(sp) also designed the 05 + mustang GT 3 valve head and sold to fomoco,
the plug idea was fords, go figure? and yes that is the "aluminator" block in 05+ GT's designed to take all heads, the over the dealer counter replacement block, FPP not needed
Livernois considers it the best 4.6 block cuz it's the FOMOCO replacement block for all 4.6 hi-po svt/ford cars and its in stock, ie cheap. Nemak tookover Teksid years ago ending production of the "best blocks" abruptly, pissed off Fomoco. Cosworth has many success and failures under thier...
fifteen grand for 100 lb ft ?
