I've been working on this project for over a year. Most of the hold up was waiting on parts, however, last week I was able to finish building the motor and install it into the car. It is about 99% done with just a few little things I need to finish. I'm expecting parts today, so I'm planning on starting this Saturday.

Anyway, this is for my 1995 Ford Taurus SHO (MTX). It's been rebuilt with forged pistons, reworked rods and crank, brand new heads fitted with bronze guides and larger valves, stiffer valve springs and stage 1 cams. It is now a 3.2L along with MANY other things I've done to the motor.

Here are some pics, I'll get video as soon as I can. Let me know what you think!

It's taken me a long time, so I'm almost scared to drive it hard... But we all know I'll rip on it every chance I get.

Once break it in about 1,000 miles or so, I'll will swap on my smaller, Reichard Racing pulley for more boost. Last time I was at the dyno on the stock block, I made 381 whp at 9 PSI. Now with this forged motor that is bored out to a 3.2L, I'm looking at running about 15 PSI (not exactly sure wha this new pulley is going to get me, but I stepped it down to a 3.2" from a 3.6"). I'm expecting anywhere from 450whp to 550whp.
