ey we finally got the engine started today but cars not complete....still have to wire dash n stuff, but i wanna know bad a rough estimate wot u guys think the ol 4LMPFI will pull for me, its a 4.0L 4 speed auto with ACL pistons (done roughly 40,000km since theve been in there) and it has Pacemaker Extractors 4499's , high flow 2.5 inch, and a 2.5 inch redback mandral bent exhaust with only 1 straight through muffler, but it has for the time being a 2.77 Diff from the old CFI....17 second 400m's ? i have no clue...all i want is a rough estimate u think it might pull out...

MAN that's a beast... and with K&N POD, jeez ur looking at running low low 14's day in day out....
Best way will be to go down to the track and take it for a run, no good sitting here taking guesses cauz there are so many variables to take into account Last edited by FordFan86; 27-06-2005 at 09:18 PM. |

I've seen a standard EA 3.9 with a 2.77 lsd run a 17.3, so my guess would be around mid to high 16's. That's if everything is running as it should.
Take it to calder or Heathcote park and find out. |

yeah the diff will let u down. I ran a flat 16 with 2.77 single spinner, 2.5" cat back exhaust and a 5 speed. Mind you that was my best time, my other times were around 16.5.

being only a stock 4 litre with only extracors and exhaust it wont be a rocket. VR and especially VS will no doubt beat you. get a decent cam and diff gears and you will have a good chance.
