I thought their biggest blower was a 3.4?

News to me.

these blower sizes are getting crazy, but no doubt someone here will make it fit on the 4.6 ...chevykiller, you up for the challenge...lol

Dang 10,000 bucks!!! :O

I'm thinking you may be able to get it to fit with some spacers between the intake manifold/heads similar to the ones used for 4.6 3V to 5.4 3V swaps. Also you would need a very large inlet boot to adapt your intake to that giant throttle body.


I bet you'd need a cowl hood with a lot of clearance so it would fit.

I want the 5.0 liter Whipple on my car. Lol you can never have too much positive displacent on your supercharger.

nice.. it can be done if some has the money and quest for 1000HP

do it man!!!! Then you'll have a real need for that 9" haha.

It's the blower for the Ford GT.

it`ll cost a TON of hp to make it turn for the 4.6 imo.

and are you going to put this power through a t-56 or a propeller?

The 3v is hitting its limits with the 3.4 that is on my car and some others. I don't think that the 4.0 would offer much more HP than was being made with Ken3030's car with his 3.4(I think Ken was 700+ rwhp). I beleive Ken is now using a Kenne Bell 2.8 with his big bore setup.

Get ready for the "giant crater in wallet" total.....

Livernois 323CI Stroker Shortblock- 7100
Livernois Stage 3 Heads- 3400 including APR head studs and Cometic head gaskets
Comp Stage 3 SPR blower cams- 850 with phaser limiters, 700 with phaser lockouts
4.0 whipple- about 10000
------------------------------------
Total- 21350, this does not include labor if you're not installing the stuff yourself. Heck there may be more parts needed, so I'd say not including labor expect at LEAST a 22,000 total.

+1
might as well go with a 5.4 and a whipple 3.4 and have money to spare.

Yep, you might as well buy a Corvette ZR1 crate motor if you're going to spend that much on your car.

You can get 30 psi out of a 2.8 Mammoth Kenne Bell.

That's so last week.

IF your speaking of the 323 Livernois has posted, that is for a N/A setup. its sleeved and look @ the compression ratio. you would want the iron big bore block that ford has to handle some boost. I think its to much. look @ the Techo @ 3.0 L versus the Kenne Bell 2.8. Kenne Bell whips its ass. I was looking into a setup like this one:

Supercharged. twin turbo with some juice. John, this was @ Charlotte this past weekend. I spoke to Chris and George. Tell them thanks for the DS loop.

Yes I was speaking of Livernois' 323 CI stroker, thanks for correcting me about what kind of setup it is made for. You can get a RGR 322 CI shortblock from jpcracing.com, but it is about 5 grand more, and the compression ratio is not even listed.
