Ok, since the other thread spanded about 4 months I decided to start this new one for fresh clean start. I'll explain the build, the parts and the price as I go along. I can post pics but to be honest, there is absolutely nothing that looks any different than before other than the top part of the block...you can tell it's cast iron. So here's a summary:
SUMMARY:
My 01 motor blew for the second time in May of 09. This motor was pretty much stock with the exception of the Mahle dome-top 9:1 pistons and of course the proper fuel bolt-ons and the Vortech V2 and Paxton Intercooler. Basically the guy I had to build it didn't know shitballs about a mod motor and that's my fault.
So I decided to order a MMR 4.6 Street Mod 800 shortblock and be done with it. I had the block shipped to Dynospeed Racing in Memphis, TN for them to do the swap. Joe and the guys at Dynospeed are really top notch. I was told from the get-go that the shop was backed up for 2 months. My car wasn't going anywhere blown up so I asked Joe if he could send someone to come and get the car. Rick came and picked up the car in June. Joe and John kept me informed of what was going on around the shop and with my car the entire time. I had to have several parts replaced that were destroyed or went bad from the previous build. Anyway, I got the car back Saturday (10/24/09) and I'm currently trying to put 500 to 600 miles on the new build and new Spec 2 clutch. Oh, and I would recommend Dynospeed to anybody.
THE BUILD:
Parts from the old build put onto the new build:
SCT X3
Vortech V-2E

-Shortblock includes the following:

*New 4340 Forged 3.543 stroke Cobra Crankshaft w/micro polished journals at no extra charge
*New 4340 5.933 MMR 800HP H-beam Rods w/ARP rod bolts ( These rods are shotpeened, magnafluxed and weight matched to bring you the finest H-beam rod available for your 4.6)
*New Forged Manley pistons (High or low compression)
*Speed Pro file fit rings (precision file fit to your application, nitrous, blower, turbo or N/A)
* Clevite tri-metal Rod and ACL Performance Main bearings

Rest of new parts:
Melling Billet Gear Oil Pump
ARP Mainstuds
MMR Sidebolts
Total cost of MMR ordered parts = $3,632
BUILD AT DYNOSPEED:
What was needed:
2 - MLS Head Gaskets
1 - Water Pump
1 - Set of Ford Gaskets
- Shaved Heads
1 - Ford Racing Oil Strainer
- ARP Head Studs
8 - Dowell
8 - NGK TR6 Plugs
1 - Guide
1 - Chain
32 - Tappet Lifters
1 - Pilot Bearing
1 - BBK Off Road H-Pipe (old one had to be replaced)
1 - Optima Red Top
12 - Quarts of 5w20 Oil
2 - Oil Filters

Labor Total = $1,900
So, the totals are:
MMR Shortblock = $3,632
Parts and Labor = $4,131
TOTAL of BUILD = $7,763
Like I said, it's being broke in before I can do a WOT Tune. I'm trying my best to get the "stop and go" miles put on the car this week so I can get the thing tuned. As soon as I do I'll post the dynosheet.
The car previously made 436rwhp 390rwtq....I hoping for better this next time.
