Thanks

Without spinning out, that depends on you as a 200,000 mile 220hp stock 5.0L can cause the car to spin out if you floor it. Rousha and Keithcraft both build killer engines, but personally I prefer the 302/345hp ford, or the 351W/385hp Ford crate engines(not affiliated to the web site linked, just easy to read Ford specs listed), simple, effective, plenty of torque and HP and they both run on pump gas. No need to get exotic with stroker kits when simple inexpensive power is available. Again, you asked, I answered, take it any way you like. In the end though, I do hope you find it helpful.

Sincerely,

Bill S.
