    What are your power goals for this build? That V10 would be perfect for my Lamborghini Diablo replica, maybe throw a gt40 trans to it.... Man the wheels are starting to turn up in my head! I can wait to see how this turns out! V10 = too sweet!!!!

    Looking Good! :2thumbs: Too bad all that extra motor does not add more cubic inches than it does. I might have missed if you mentioned the weight difference between the V10 and the 4.6 or old 5.0. Did you look into how much the V10 weighs?

    There's alot more room in there with the V10 than I thought there would be. Looks good so far.

    Sweet build!! I remember following your thread on v6power. Those were some pretty headers you built. I swaped in a built sc 3.8l when I blew my stock motor. Mine should be good to 600rwhp, you must have some very high goals to swap in a v10.

    You may get by with a 3", or you could cut a hole in the stock a run a scoop on it. You could also polish everything and just leave it exposed as well.

    Where did you get the parts to build those headers? I'm running 2 94-98 pass side headers on mine, one flipped and one turned upside down. I'd like to build a set like you built if I can find a good price on a header kit.

    This will give you an idea of what kind of numbers it will put down and sound.

    the v10 motors are junk without forced induction. suck the gas, and make weak power.

    the build is cool as hell though im sure with some boost it'll make a lot of power

    keeping the louvered area clean is a PITA
