how hard could i push this thing

[flip_86]

i recently came across a 2001 crown vic police interceptor, its been converted back to a regular crown vic as far interior/exterior, but its been converted to a 5 speed manual. I was just wondering what your opinions are on how long a stock (internal) 4.6l will hold together. From what i've read on here they don't last much longer after 400whp.
thanks

what do you mean converted "back" to a regular crown vic... Either its a P71 or its not... Putting the interior out of a civilian car doesn't bring it "back" to anything, its an alteration...

The 4.6 2V is the same engine in a mustang GT, so look there.

Don't know how you plan to get 400whp out of an '01 CV...:shrug:

But, you can push that car hard...'cause there are 10s of 1,ooos of them painted yellow and pulling livery service way past 350-400K...if THAT'S what you mean by "pushing".

i guess i wasn't specific enough, i wanted to know if this engine would support 7 or 8 pounds of boost and maybe a little spray. seems I've come to the wrong forum.
