    Is this the original 4.6 block off the 3v or 2v

    JulioV

    • Hey Stanggang, This block is of its own creation to be applied to those modular 4.6 motors so its not necessarily based off any of them. But its meant for any 96-2010 mustang that came with the modular 4.6.

    What are the specifics as in what are the part numbers for the crank, rods and pistons?

    bluestang1724

    • Ford performance parts does not supply us with the part numbers used in the Ford Performance 5.3L Modular Stroker Shortblock. The information we are provided is below: Bore x stroke (in): 3.701" bore x 3.750" stroke Block: Ford Racing M-6010-BOSS50 Cast Iron performance block Crankshaft: Eagle® 3.750-inch stroke forged steel crankshaft with 8 bolt flywheel pattern Connecting Rods: Eagle® 5.850-inch forged steel "H" beam rods with ARP® 2000 bolts Pistons: Mahle® forged aluminum pistons – with a dish that is compatible with 2, 3 or 4 valve heads New high pressure oil pump Neutral balance rotating assembly

    So, is the block used for this the m-6010-BOSS50? If so, good option, but where is the specification information regarding pistons, rods and crank, etc. used.? I was considering buying the aforementioned bare block, but this might be a faster/more efficient way to go.

    KELDOG

    • This block is the same as the Boss block, but it is simply bored out. The crankshaft is forged steel with a 3.750 inch stroke. The connecting rods are forged steel H beams that are 5.850 inches. The pistons are a forged aluminum dish.

    Hello, My 2000 GT is already a fully built show/ street and strip car but my engine failed due to oil pump failure. So my question is how much horsepower is this bottom end setup built to stand? I will be putting trick flow heads with blower cams and a vortech intercooled V1 blower. And maybe a 50 shot. We are shooting for 700-800 RWHP in the car maybe 8-900 at the crank. Will she hold up? Thank you!

    Bugman

    • With the correct application the Ford Performance 5.3L Modular Stroker Shortblock is rated up to 800+ HP. I think she will hold up fine with what you are shooting for!

    I see this engine is built for 4.6 engines. I have an 06 3 valve. I see above where you advised to have heads port patched and to check for clearance. Which heads are recommended for this block if not factory heads?

      Perfect

      Bought this as a swap out for my car. Can't describe the power with the setup I have but it is a true bang for your buck if you have the extra cash and time to turn this block into a powerhouse!
