because unlike the oil pump theres nothing you can do about it . its the exhaust ports that are the problem try to go big on them and your into the water ways. that imo is why we have never seen 700-800hp from them.

no lol, just a big shame ford left the exhaust ports same as blacktop when they cast the ST170 head with perfect inlet ports for really big boosted power

Nope - 4wd. Fitting the engine and box only too a couple of days. Sorting the rear suspension and diff cradle has taken a lot longer
