View Full Version : will a 3L give me more power than a 2.5?
i can use the Vulcan engine from the taurus right?
do i gotta use the taurus automatic?
will my hood still fit okay?
do you think my spark plugs will screw into the new engine?
so this is an easy swap right?
hehe.
just kidding.
95% most likely will be joining your ranks soon.

absolutely NOT, NEVER, NOT IN A LIFE TIME... the 2.5L gives waaaaaaaaayyyyyy more power than a 3.0L hands down :biggrin:

I just swapped the 3.0 UIM because the engines are basicly the same minus the UIM. Instant 3.0 w/210hp.

Actually I used a Yahama SHO engine with 6 CPU fans (one on each cylinder) for superchargers. Throwing down 500 to the wheels and only at 5 psi! Can't wait to turn up my fans!
thats a good idea kinger. i was thinking i would do that too. then i would take a bunch of heat sinks and tape them onto the intake manifold.. i'd have an instant, cheap intercooler.

Also run without the hood, in the rain its equivalent to a water mist injectection system! In snow the efficiency of the engine climbs to over 300%!

I swapped in the 3.8L V6 out of a 95 Taurus... for some reason it only dynoed at 128.8HP / 227 TQ, but it feels very quick! I got you all beat! :stupid: :banana:

To late.......... a noob looking for info stumbled in. But it's ok since I have an ATX, speed just isn't in my cars vocabulary.

I kept my 2.5 cause it's faster than any 3.0L...
I hired a 2ft magical dwarf from tahiti where the climate is very warm), and I put min im my engine bay...He sits there and blows into my intake. When he's not passed out, I get a boost of 65hp, better than any N20 kit.
Sometimes I get him majorly drunk and I get some quasi alcohol injection...I love my magical dwarf mod.
