Jayz66ragtop, what place installed your SC? And tuned it? I am in so cal. And looking for installer, thanks Jeff

 

How was the price tag on that and what kinda MPG u averaging?

 

the last year that ford made the gt (40) it had the v10 making 750hp maybe svt has something

 

Can you source this for me? I don't believe this is correct, but I've been wrong before.

 

The GT was only powered by the supercharged 5.4.

 

you are right the car was caiied the ford gt x1 roadster concept they didnt build it and the gt enginer said they never considerd the v10 cause they got all they needed from the 5.4 off there shelf sorrry for getting your hopes up op guess the v10 is just a truck motor

 

Brian at B&D Racing did the install and tune.

They aren't the cheapest but you will not be sorry if you use them.

 

any more vids or pics of the set up?

 

Sorry, I missed this question the first go around. Don't remember the original price because other work was done at the same time. I think the kit was around $4200 installed. As far as mileage goes, if you have to ask...

If I drive it gently I average about 13MPG but what fun is that? The bigger hit with the kit I have it requires premium fuel. I have the intercooled kit which goes up to 10 psi.

Unfortunately because the injectors have been changed out the lie-O-meter is waaaaaaay off, usually says somewhere around 20-25 MPG

 

I have not taken pics of the setup. I will try to snap a few this weekend. Besides the heat exchanger, tubing and the "head unit" of the supercharger there isn't much to see from up top. The kit uses the intercooler from the diesel EX so it looks pretty stock in there. I have the prototype so my heat exchanger doesn't have the sticker on top of it.

 

Here are a few pics I took

Heat exchanger and tubing

Yes, I know it's dirty. She needs a bath BAD

 

I know this is an ancient thread, but I have been toying with boosting my V10 F150 and I'm pretty sure all the V10 cranks are forged unlike the non-lightning 5.4 cast cranks with hollow journals.

 

Yes it is old but it's still a good discussion.
You are right. All V10 cranks are forged and even with offset throws...Very strong! Rods are same as 5.4. So if you're going to blow it with more than 10-12lb I'd just buy a set of forged Manley Rods and Pistons and you're away! There's quite a few shops that will NC port the heads of either the 2 or 3 valve variety. And Comp will grind you cams if you want. I'm building an '08 3V to fit an Aussie Falcon van. I will stay normally aspirated because it's more about the torque for me. I will modify a stock plastic intake to work or make an ally one using two 5.4 3V ally intakes from a Falcon.

 

That's awesome! Post more pics! I hope you post updates in this thread as I don't frequent the forums because my life has changed significantly since thinking about boosting the F150. I still have it, but it's currently in the shop for a transmission replacement. Why is it in the shop? I have a brain tumor, so my modding & racing days have ended. I have a Viper too, but I can no longer drive it well. I sold off all my bikes, golf carts, limo, etc and moved to a smaller house in Florida where I don't have the room to mod even if I could.

Thanks for the post. Good luck!

 

Sorry to hear about your brain tumor. Maybe someone on the forum will tackle a modded v10 project you can follow and appreciate. I would love to have a v10 excursion turbo for towing. If anyone has any opinions I'm still all ears.
