Definitely going with a centrifugal this time around, most likely a Procharger.

Love it, congratulations.

Thanks!

I think there was a crankshaft difference that allowed the 5sp versions to rev out an extra 1000rpm as well . (6800 redline vs 5800)

Every damn day!

Yep, manuals got a forged crank. It should still be able to handle the power I want to run for now. Then I'll either forge it or do a Coyote swap.

the auto trans is the limiting factor, Im a bit foggy on the details but I believe when turned faster there's some kind of clip/pin that tends to back out and grenade the transmission. Since it was RPM limited by the trans they used the cast crank instead of the forged one.

My wife had the same rare optioned Mach 1. Same color, with auto. It was a blast to drive. Trans was very responsive differing from the GT. Beautiful car!

Too bad Ford didn’t have their shared 10sp Autos back in the early 2000s. I can think of lots of cars that would have benefited greatly.
