Why a M90 and not a M112?

[james02mustang]

@TheMrhoneycutt

I didn't want to spend $900 on a manifold to make it work and I also didn't want to cut a hole in my hood to make it fit...

@TheMrhoneycutt

Because at the end of the day it's just a V6...

[james02mustang]

The only difference between a 4.2, 4.3 or 4.whatever is the bore size. With a larger displacement engine you will be able to more easily support more horsepower but will not see much of a performance gain between a 4.2 and a 4.3L engine. Yes the exhaust manifold will fit, the only difference between the 4.2 and the 3.8 is the rotating assembly, heads and all other external prats are the same.

@edwardsm2009 did u get the m112 set? or are u getting parts here and there?

[edwardsm2009]

I'm doing the same setup to my 4.2L F-150 only I'm using a M112 Supercharger.

[TheMrhoneycutt]

Well then when is the Whipple going on?

[calmero331]

What made you decide to go 4.3L rather than the 4.2L? I'm still debating whether to go with the 4.2L or 4.3L Stroker...

On another note, this may sound like a stupid question but will exhaust manifolds off of a 3.8L fit a 4.3L?

Good luck with your project man, sounds like something I'm going with.

Very cool. This is what I am doing to my 1995 5-speed. Already have the block apart, gotta spec it and build it now.
