Re: tips for new stang owner PLEASE help
What people fail to mention is that with the mach 1, if you want to put in more than 6 psi youll have to get low compression piston/rings. The Mach 1 has a pretty high CR making it great for N/A.

Re: tips for new stang owner PLEASE help
The compression is good enough for 10psi and lower, and 12psi if you had balls. Definitely get forged pistons and connecting rods though.
Oh yeah, is it an auto or a stick? If it's an auto then get a forged cobra crank.

Re: tips for new stang owner PLEASE help
That sounds a little more accurate to me, I know some of the SN95 4.6's run quite a bit of boost on stock bottom ends.
Just whatever you do, do not allow it to detonate, Ford engines can't handle detonation like Chevy's can. Fords melt pistons really fast.

Re: tips for new stang owner PLEASE help
yeah, i forgot about the higher compression. 6psi should still get you 385-410hp at the crank though.
