What is the chance to get new 4.7 stroker parts for something around 10000Dhs

:?: :idea:
10000 might be a little too less, i think with 12 to 13000 you should have it installed. That means all with a used engine, the parts and so on.

And Btw,i would always do it again. The engine is exactly what the car needs. High torque from idle and very responsive. I should once try mine with normal sized tires, i think that would be amazing.

I have the 31" tires on and still have full wheelspin in the first gear from zero up to second gear.

And the sound, hmmmm.

The 3.8 V6 is a completely different engine from the 4.0L I6 so the I6 stroker kit cannot work on the V6. If you want more power from the 3.8, Hesco have a supercharger kit.

He he, here's Hesco's supercharger kit for the 3.8 V6:

At $5000, you'd be better off swapping in a V8 instead!

5000$..! 8O ...Yes it'll be cheaper buying another engine...so i guess i'll stick to the 3.8 for now

Not at all.

I had to change the Automatic Transmission but this was not because of the new Engine. Before i got the Stroker in i had already problems with the shifting of the gears. The car had about 210000 km that time so the Transmission was worn out already.

Since i have the new one in the car runs very well.

You can damage the best car if you want to. If i abuse the car always it will go damage much quicker than if i use it properly. :wink:
