[QUOTE="ChenZhenFromJingWu, post: 16858257, member: 204337"] I'm in the same boat, kinda. Bought an 01 for sort of a project for me and my son. Found out it had an iron block, cast crank and a bunch of stripped aluminum bolt holes in the heads. It eventually spun a bearing. So we got a shortblock. It was used but fully forged with a teskid block, arp bolts/studs and the orignal kellogg crank. Wanted to give the car back some of what makes it a cobra. Me and my son pulled it apart. Checked clearances/tolerances. put it in and replaced a bunch of stuff along the way. Car runs great now, but its forged and has 4.10s. If i put FI on it. Im going to want to swap the gears again. Im not looking foward to [I]messing with the rear end right now. Just put the 4.10s in about 6 months ago. So I went to the junkyard and got some 05 aviator heads. Gonna build em up outside the car and eventually swap them out with the stripped out, high mileage OEM heads. It makes sense to do that before thinking about FI anyway. So ill be ridin around on full forged, N/A engine for a while. Got a little time to figure it out.[/I] [/QUOTE]
