[QUOTE="IUP99snake, post: 13490230, member: 7060"] What an awesome project. I think it's an awesome idea that you're modding your explorer and I'm really looking forward to reading about it. The thing I really like about the 4.6 3V motor is that there's a lot of good off the shelf parts for that motor such as the FRPP CNC heads, hot rod cams, not to mention a wide variety of PD blowers. I'm a big fan of Explorer modding and I haven't seen much done to the newer 4.6 versions like yours. I bought a 2000 Mercury Mountaineer with 200,000 miles on it for around $1500 bucks. The motor was burning oil, so my friends and I swapped in 347 with a trick flow h/c/i package. We kept the super-quiet factory exhaust to keep it a sleeper, but we installed cutouts for when it was time to confuse people. That motor was waiting to go into a Mustang, but my friend sold the roller to someone else. It was neat to swap over all the explorer parts on to the long block, including the COP ignition system. Speaking of explorer parts swapping, it'll be interesting to see which mustang or explorer-specific parts you use, keep, or create. It was the most fun I've ever had in an SUV. [/QUOTE]
