Re: Trick Flow Engine Kit For 5.0
wow, are you seriuos, i was talking about a block....but i just said throwing rods.....but still i though that a block could only support like 400-450max rwhp....and i thought 11psi max on the internals....

Re: Trick Flow Engine Kit For 5.0
now those are for the H.O. blocks correct, and where all 89-92 (87 and 88 too but speed density and tune=no fun) H.O. or only select models....was 93 hyperpathetic pistons or did it continue to use the forged?

Re: Trick Flow Engine Kit For 5.0
All the '88+ 5.0 Mustangs were HOs ( ). Yes, the '93s had hypereutectic pistons.
