Yes, I have a kenne bell SC on one of my 6.8L excursions. Took me 3 yrs to get all parts and install.

3rd excursion is getting a turbo, and forged short block to hold 14 psi. It will be put up for sale once that is done in a year or two.

CG fabrication sells hot side kits for the 5.4 and 4.6 modulars and they said they would build me a hot side for my 6.8L.

All my forged parts are coming from Livernois Motersports. Looking at L&M engines for the custom cams.

Turbo will be a Borg Warner S472X-E with a T4 1.25AR turbine housing. Should have 14 psi at 2000 rpm WOT. it will vary between 0 and 14 psi during cruise operation at 2000 rpm.

Boost starts at 1700 rpm and will vary between 0 and 9 psi at that rpm.

OEM MAF is too small and a aftermarket unit is needed to flow 1400 cfm+, and a Ford 6.0L diesel intercooler will be used.

I have a 1999 E350 van at my local pick and pull. It has an aluminum lower intake on it. I will replace my plastic on with the 1999 model for strength and reliability.

This build will cost ALOT.
Over $5k for motor
Over $4K for transmission
Over $5.5k for turbo system

Desk top dyno shows 850 ft lbs at 3000 rpm
2000 rpm max torque would be over 600 ft lbs.

 

Since I'm in the middle of my engine build I'm considering putting a set of 3 valve heads on my motor.

I can lock out the variable valve timing by just putting a 2v timing setup on 3v heads. That way my motor will breath better.....3v instead of 2v?

Thoughts?

 

there is no variable valve timing on 3v v10

 

I know this is an old post just trying to reach the person that posted this pick this is the engine in my truck I just bought not to long ago
