EATON Swap

[jebadiah]

Hello I am building an 01 cobra from the ground up. Not looking to get to crazy but I would like to get into the stock Termi neighborhood. I have an aviator shortblock and some 4V heads and an eaton blower. My question is will the aviator bottom end handle the eaton. Again I'm looking to be in the 400hp area. I am going to do headers and full exhaust etc. Any thoughts or suggestions. I'm not planning on beating the piss out of it or running it super hard at the track. Its going to be a car I drive on nice days in the warmer months the of the year. Any insight would be greatly appreciated

Interesting project. I know little to nothing about the Aviator motor/bottom end, but if you mild goal is around 400hp to pretty much match the factory Terminator power, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible/recommended. But let's let someone with Aviator knowledge pipe in.

Have you considered looking for a set of terminator take outs? I know at one point they could be found for a pretty good deal
