Question S/C cost ??

On a '01 5.4. What would be entailed cost wise ?? How much would have to change under the food ?? I'm not a mechanically inclined person.

How would it work hauling a 3100# boat ??

From what I have seen $4-5K is very likely but for a 3100lb boat that 5.4 should do it just fine.

Thumbs up

Yeah, the 5.4 pulls the boat just fine, BUT, there's still some "kid" in me, and I kinda wanted a "little faster truck" !!

Installed you are looking at $5K+ if you did it yourself I think you can still buy them for under $4K. Aside from the Sc you need a new fuel pump then it depends on which type you get as to what it takes under the hood.

Make sure you buy a complete kit, as opposed to piecing it together from cheaper parts. The kits have everything you need, and may have parts that would be overlooked or hard to get on their own. You may also need forged pistons, and a new tune.
