That is great. Have you played around with the stock bottom end? Was thinking about shot peening the rods and coating the pistons... hopefully looking at a 500-600 whp setup. Any recommendations on the stock bottom end?
@Redphoenix2k1 ur probably better off buying new rods/pistons so u don't have any drama's if/when u decide to step it up u won't have to change anything. i know Eric from TTC Performance in the US had a good deal, pistons and rods (1300+hp) for $1900 if u have the $'s would be something to look at. or email him anyway he may be able to help with a cheaper combo. also the stock 89-94 rods would be good for 500hp or so.
Hey zapwatt i dont think you realise that the car is 100% street legal, Drive the car to the track change tyres run 9s then change back to street tyres and drive home wake up to yourself you tool
Anything done to the bottom end?
Love it, building my single HX52 1uzfe right now.

@zapwatt unfortunately 4L was the biggest we were legally allowed to go, if Ford made a V8 4L would have been great
