Hey! I gave him the correct google info to search on!

It's just super charging a 4.7 with a plastic intake manifold is a little like adding rocket boosters to your daughters Pink Barbie Power Wheels 'jeep'. Just a little overkill that's all. LOL

I could just see a pink power wheel roasting down the road ways....... LOL..

I don't think that the poor thing could hold up OEM.... You would have to build that motor from the bottom up to handle that and also include custom trans work.

Why does everyone now overlook N.O.S.?------I'm mean I always got megaboost when I did whipits..........Put a cheater plate and some 80 hp nozzles,fill up the bottle and go scare some import vaccum cleaners on the freeway..It's cheaper and the worst you'll have to do is use a power programmer to rich up the fuel curve and ya won't wrappin it around a telepole on a rainy day...
Now where the hell did I put that Readywhip can....

Them 4.7's are not made like the 5.2/5.9s. They trimmed the fat for weight/economy/etc.
