sounds like a great engine. stock Numbers 0f 350 hp @ 6,000 rpm and 350 lb-ft @ 3,200 rpm. sound like it would be a reliable motor at that. Its going to be fun keeping the front end on the Ground. Just a ball park Guess. what was the Cost of motor/ adapter and Ford Power system??
big dave, that turbo 2.3 ecoboost runs $2k from the junk yards, around here that is. that changes quite a bit but the 3.5 twin turbo coboost is $3500 or $3k if you know the onwer of the salvage yard lol prob with the 3.5 is i wont leave it stock! plenty of people turn them up to 600 hp very easily! so a 2d wont cut it and thats a big nut to crack now i run a turbo 2.3.......lima not ecoboost. mines a well built 2.3 out of an 88 thunderbird. i too was born with a blue oval on my cheek i know the ecoboost makes more power if not for anyother reason then a quadvalve head! better intake, better head flow as well as variable cam timing. theres more but you already know. that 3.5 ecoboost would be a riot.....just need an expensive trans.

Just a ball park Guess. what was the Cost of motor/ adapter and Ford Power system??no dyno sheet to back this up but many many dyno posts on turbo fod forum that my 2.3 doesnt make peak tq until about 4200 or 4400. we were able to see that reflected in the data log back in the beginning but dont remember for sure. it followed suit with the posts on the forum. if that true then the eco 2.3 is making peak tq 1000 rpm sooner ......thats huge in my book. i hope aprilfools makes a trip to ls so i can see this run in person!
