Alright, I've met some really cool people on here. Many have helped me with some problems I've had with my new 88 SE. Thank 2 U! So, with the exception of RX-7 KID (must be what he is), I apologize for offending N E 1 in my first posts.



BTW, I'm not sure what model year the Bullitt was, but I know it was a 65-69. 69 & 70 were the best two years, 1 of which I own. (70 Mach 1 428 CJ) And no, I won't race any of U!! Am I afraid....haha...The only thing I would be afraid of is when I pass U up, U might get pissed and wreck my beauty, LOL! Very rare and expensive parts!! Nough, but in it's stock form, it only runs a 12.7 ET. U might say that's awesome, but this is a big block you're talkin' about. (tons of torque) I have plans to beef it up in the future.





While we're on the topic of 5.0's, my Ranger has 1 in it out of an F-150 that is 'built' and runs 13's when it decides to hook up. Doesn't that beat most of U stock NA guys?

Well its "built" so yeah... built n/a's can run 13's. My dad has a brand new crate 5.0 engine in his f150, man its a torque sucker but its slow. I know there are a lot of other factors like wieght/gearing but still its slow.

No, it's not an HO. There's not much difference, though. Little, if any HP difference. I think it's just that the HO's are 'roller' motors. The firing orders are different. When I say 'built', I was refering to bolt on's really. Power Plus intake, Holley 750 cfm, hypereutectics to forged pistons, smaller pulleys, and extremely minor porting of the heads. I plan to have it bored and stroked and put some headers on it. Last resort is aluminum heads, but they are very expensive.

I wasnt talking to you, I was talking to 1revvin7.



The difference between the 5.0 HO and a 5.0 is 75 horsepower, so yeah there is a big difference. Im reffering to the last run of 5.0 that was out.
