Hi Craig,

Don't know any one with a PD blower setup on a 5.0 Windsor but I agree that would be the way to go for bottom end grunt. There must be plenty of kits available for them in the US that would adapt up. How about the Kennie Bell kits?

I was quite surprised at the numbers my 5.6 made. Most of the reports I read on the new 5.4 in the BA say they make about 190ish at the rear wheels and they are suposed to be 260KW at the crank. I think the 5.4 is a bit more civilized than mine and definitely gets better fuel economy. I'm generally seing figures up around 20L/100KM ouch! Might have more to do with my right foot and the kind of behaviour the pedal under it encourages.

Cheers
