I am going to be picking up a 96 mustang gt 4.6 just to toy with, I have been looking into the trickflow heads and cam kit, has anybody installed one of these with there trackheat intake with headers and exhaust and if so what hp levels are we talking at tires I am hoping to get into the high 300s at the tires am i crazy i think it is possible on 93 octane if compression is right at 11 to 1.
highest hp NA 2-valve setup
- Thread starter cmycobrafly
- Start date
anybody else maybe someone who has trickflow heads and cams on a NA set up
i mean if hod rod magazine can do it there has to be some other people out there doing it with rwhp installed in car and front acc. installed Trick Flow Cylinder Head Upgrade For 2 Valve 4.6L Ford Modular Engines - Hot Rod Magazine

at last my Dyno Numbers for trick flow heads - Mustang Forums at StangNet
The OP is putting down 341rwhp, however others in that thread are claiming 350+rwhp (including reputable builders/tuners)

Good post. As others have stated in that topic though, those are the STD numbers and not the SAE. Had it been SAE like it should be, it would only be 325 - 330.
I would think A 2V @ 11:1 compression on pump wouldn't be able to run any meaningful timing, which would really hold you back. TF Heads will change this a bit, but the 2V doesn't handle high compression as well as 4V's - a splash of Race gas will probably be required to get the numbers you want. At least reliable enough to run on the street.
Even then, their intake certainly wouldn't do it. You would need a Reichard or something that would let the Engine rev to 7,000+ cleanly. Wild, wild cams too.
I remember MM+FF's Richard Holdener did one years ago, but had to use a one off intake to achieve those #'s. He sold the rights to it, but for some reason it's never been marketed. :shrug:

One of my buddys 01' GT put longtubes, full exhaust and mild comp cams without springs. Put down 310rwhp.
I have the 38cc TFS heads on my 03GT as well as CMS stage 2.5 N/A cams, full boltons, HPS intake, stock bottom end and Im at 330rwhp...
just go with forced induction F**K NA
I'd much rather have a NA setup over a FI setup if I could make equal power for the same price. It's just that F/I is a very cheap way for big numbers.
