bump for $7500

or you can fit a supercharged 4.6 in there easy as well or a huge single plane carb setup with a 5.4 4v https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFvlUuy0wSY

interesting note...you can fit a 5.4 4v in a ford focus....but apparently its impossible in a marauder

did you miss the part that I already have a project? Ive got the 2000 GT racecar, 2004 SVT Focus, 2003 Marauder and just picked up a 2000 Lightning....i dont need more work

lies! it "cant be done" :violin:

im not out racing my 4-door tank lol...so why would I do it? Ive got a light weight 2-door for my racing needs. 5.4 4v turbo with a 6r80 in a sn95 on a stock computer...thats what i spend my time on (yes, also told on that one that it "cant be done" lol) if i can ever find a busted up crown...

too busy doing swaps in f150's and mustangs to waste time on a 4-door land barge swap just for giggles. but keep believing 3/4" is keeping you from doing it.

again...tell me what is within 3/4" of the current motor that cannot be fairly easily moved right out of the way....dont worry, I'll wait. 3/4" taller, 3/4" wider on each side...take some pics and use some fancy ms paint skills to point out the immovable.

i forgot intakes magically change heights based on the vehicle you bolt them in :banana2:

4.6 dohc is 26 5/8" wide 5.4 dohc is 28 1/4" wide Thats 1.5" difference in width....or....3/4" wider on each side. Go stare at your motor and tell me whats all within 3/4" of touching the current motor down the valve covers....pretty much nothing

35.5" is a navigator 5.4...have you ever seen those navi truck intakes? here is one in my buddy's 5.4 4v lightning you know tall one is with a normal intake like the 5.4's get? Like the sheetmetal sullivan style? yes...same truck...we're going twin turbo on it so swapped intakes. 28.5"...

cowl hoods are a stupid easy solution for the couple inches needed to clear the blower.

Id start with converting to hydroboost. then drop it in...heat up the hvac air box with a heat gun where its barely going to touch the valve cover and clearance it. probably the most invasive part would be the alternator...havent decided if it is going to clear without fiddling with it or not

you can accomplish what you want with a 4.6 4v....but at the same time, ignore the "it wont ever fit or work" people with the 5.4/5.8...It wouldnt take a whole lot to make it work. most of your marauder guys are just in the box thinkers

bump...new vehicle shows up wednesday

2003 Black Marauder, 136k miles. Extremely well cared for. This was purchased by the previous owner at Mecum and was owned by an old lady before him. Everything serviced and maintained. Replaced by Ford (have receipts): September 2013 - Replaced A/C system - $2081.75 December 2010 - Front...

headers are not even close to worth 40-50 rwhp....more like 10ish. id run a 4lb lower and if you've done a terminator swap, make sure to run a underdrive alternator pulley.

drop a coyote in and use the frpp computer control pack for it then run a baumann controller on the stock 4r70...full auto with a coyote motor.

I called it that thinking hydroboost...w/e 4v valve covers are squared off, 2v/3v are rounded the 4v are more squared off to accommodate the double chains and gears...so it measures 1/2" wider from the tips of the valve covers on each side the motor itself is not wider...just the very top...

not if you're hydroboost...easier to just remove it all. havent messed with a normal brake booster since the lighting. speaking of, guess i'll have to convert the marauder.
