Wondering if the 03 Marauder 4.6 had a forged rotating assembly from the factory ? What style block do these motors have and whats the hp rating on these blocks from the factory???

No they are not a forged bottem end.. As for the block I think they use the same block as the regular GT's I could be wrong though.. I know for a fact they are not a forged bottom end though.

Above saying Mach 1 (auto) motor *as well as the '03-'04 Lincoln Aviator are correct...

Feel free to add a little boost...it likes the boost...

Huh, i always thought it was the auto motor that got the forged crank.

Nope the reason is that the 5 speed has a 7200 RPM redline vs a 6000-6500 RPM redline for the 4R70W auto motors.

Just put a Meziere electric water pump on my Marauder and it just turned 44,000 miles this year :whine: poor baby is worn out.

Id love to have a marauder for a DD but none around here for sale, and/or are overpriced for me.
