WOW!!! I've never seen anything like it. What else have you done - exhaust? Suspension ? I notice you have nice wheels too. How does it handle with all that HP? I'm impressed.

That is a sick Expedition man! Best of luck to you. Just out of curiosity, would you have had the same luck with a 5.4? My guess is that you wouldn't have a wide array of choices like you do with the 4.6 because it's in the Mustang.

What's it runnin' in the quarter?

Btw, good lookin' truck and you should definately post some videos of it!

The 5.4 and 4.6 are an awful lot alike. There are just as many options and you have the potential for more power with the 5.4.

I see you did a DOHC swap. What are you running for engine management?

Its fully built motor heads everthing was cryo treated I got rid of the mech fan and shroud and put a electric water pump and Flex a lite fans Iam useing a Sullivan Intake Manifold and Throttle Body Adapter with a Accufab Oval throttle and fuel rails . I Had The tranny built and addes 3800 stall converter.I put new shocks and springs which dropped the truck to the ground. I put a 4/10 Ford Motorsport gear. Wheels are 20" KMC V2 on 275/45/20 Falcons Iam going to sell them For something else The exhaust is 4". on the stock 4.6 with 125K miles put 456 to the ground It handled great.With this new build it should put 800 + to the ground. As of Easter Sunday I will finish my intercoller tubeing and some wireing and it hopefully will be running at the end of the week .

Thanks Well we built the turbo kit on the 4.6 motor you can get just as much for the 5.4 as 4.6 Iam just a fan of the 4.6 plus alot of the lighting guys dont like me becuase of the lighting badge on my truck so I enjoy beating them. In the 1/8 I ran a 8.70 and I turned up the boost to 15-18 Pounds and I ran a 8.1

Sick truck.
Great thing about the 4.6 is the choice of intakes.
The 5.4 intake doesn't flow, and there's not much that can be done.
