I have BBK Ceramic Longtubes....1 5/8"

 

[ALLOY GT]

put them on you already have them

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Has anyone tried to port the stock manifolds?

Has anyone tried to port the stock manifolds?

sounds like it may be a waste of time to be honest, the lt's would be better for performance im sure.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Your prob right.... It was just a thought.

 

[BubbaRATM]

thinking never killed anyone that i know of....

Green there is a guy over at mustang forums, turboshelbygt, that works mainly on import stuff. He ported his stock exhaust manifolds and put a high flow mid pipe on for some hp. I think it was like 20 with the whole combo. Its on a SC car too so it probably isn't nearly as much on a N/A.
Here is the link to the thread http://mustangforums.com/forum/4-6l...96453-dyno-results-from-some-custom-work.html

Nope. I now have the money for the cams too.

Thanks for the link, I'll check that out.

yes you can do cams now LOL but which ones is the new tech discussion

 

[GrnBullitt08]

He did seem to benefit from porting the stock manifolds, but like you said it was a forced induction application. N/A wouldn't see near the gains if any most likely.

Im better of sticking with the longtubes is my guess. Just looking to try something different while the car is apart. With the ported manifolds it would also give the car the stock appearance when I take it into Ford lol.

Yup. I'll start looking into them once I talk to the girl. I promised her a vacation if I got any money back from all this bullshit. So that comes first.

I think mattD on here ported his stock intake manifold. I think he only picked up 1-2rwhp with it, I remember it was something along those lines

 

[GrnBullitt08]

oh ok...thats not all that bad. But arent the longtubes good for some solid power gains. 10+hp and 15+tq

ford racing 3 valve intake comes out soon too, ^^ he made me think of this.

sounds right, i seen a video of a saleen that was supercharged gain around 45 whp with lt's and o/r x pipe and tune

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yeah anything F/I is going to see better power gains than a N/A setup.

 

[BubbaRATM]

also with the parts i have seen you buying up so far you should run good because the delete plates are rumored to be around 10hp gain , the lt's and the JLT intake will sure help also. You have a stick and those ported heads will def help if you get cams. i would say with all mentioned mods you should see a mid 12 sec range without cams.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yeah, Im not really concerned about drag times, but I will test the car for sure. Im sending the heads off tomorrow to have them looked at. Im going to run the stock heads POE gave me until they return.

 

[BubbaRATM]

you can always sell the stockers once the P&P heads get back
