Probably don't make them. I would say that there is ZERO demand for them...

Shorties are your only choice. Try Gibson.

You can use mustang LTs but they do need a tiny bit of persuasion with a hammer to clear the starter iirc.

If you want more info check out either www.v6power.net or www.v6f150.com.
You could also check with www.supersixmotorsports.com.

Truely, unless you have a 99-03 5.4 f150, shorties are about the only way to go unfortunately.

Mustang 3.8's might work, but I would save that money for a V8 swap.

I'm not going to lie, I had a good laugh after reading that! Happy with a V6 that's a classic!

i dont see why EVERYONE HAS to have a v8...if you dont tow much or want to race then leave it be

a guy i work with talks down on every v6 half ton that comes in because "they get the same MPG as a v8" true they do...but they are also cheaper from the dealership

Yeah, the guy likes his v6, I don't see what the problem is? I'd own a v6, almost bought one last year 99 v6 reg cab. As long as its american made its cool imo! lol

I mean i got a 97 nonPI 4.6 V8, his 4.2 would have prolly out pulled mine before my LT's/exhaust, programmer, CAI. And i got 35's on with 3.55's, he might outpull me now.
