How long should the engine last with this package? I want it but I put 25,000 miles on the car this past year. Everyone i ask said it depends on hard you drive it but who gets this kind of package to not run it hard? I've heard that 100,000 miles is alot but at this point It will be there in 3 more years.

Looking forward to your feedback and that of other members.

[Dennis Reinhart]

That's a fair question, and that depends on the driver, no matter who's kit you buy this car still has 10.2 to 1 compression on Hypertectic Pistons and marginal rods if the car is maintained and kept with good Gasoline and driven properly there is no reason why it won't make a 100k with 8/10 PSI.

Now if you are going to race this car every week and beat on it I have no Idea, how long it will last, I don't think any one else does either, so this kit as good as they come, and it makes no difference who's kit you have, with out the proper tuning, the kit is worthless and the engine won't last, a N/A car can lose an engine with an improperly setup chip.

If you want to remove all doubt and make a mid 11 second car. You can take a stock Marauder motor and put billet oil pump gears and a good set of Rods and bearings and Main bearings and 8 1/2 to 1 forged pistons and put 13+ PSI on this motor, and its about Bullit proof with + 475 RWHP. I am curently putting a package together using a 03 Cobra motor, and the Vortech SQ T Trim with 15 PSI, this car will make 550 to the tires run low 11's or high 10's still get relativly good gas milage and make your heart flutter. Call me any time I will be glad to answer any questions you have.

That is a question that has no answer. I know for a fact I will rebuild my engine with stronger parts long before anything happens. But even that statement could be wrong. There are guys on this forum who have lost motors for unexplained reasons without superchargers. The same statements apply to cars as do people... "when its their time to go, they go." All the S/C kits marketed currently have proven safe reliable horsepower. Be an optimist like me, live for the moment, enjoy the car and the parts you buy for it, and leave your worries elsewhere.

Zack,
that's a great theory but this is not my other car, it's my daily driver. Lets asume the car does make it to 100k. What are we left with at that point? What could you do with it then? Are there people buying cars that have beeten up for a 100k? Is it worth anything in trade or resale at this point?

Do people buy new engines in anticipation that their's isn't gooing to last much longer?

I realize everything is a calculated risk however I feel i need a little bit more information before I can make that decession.

[Dennis Reinhart]

Again I nor any one else can tell you if your motor will last to a 100k with or without a super charger I cannot tell you what the resale value of your car is, Frankly I don't care what they say the car is worth, I love this car, to me its priceless. I built a kit to make safe proven power, I have installed blowers on cars with 75 k on them they ran fine, and many still are, again it depends on you and your driving habits that determines the longevity of any Motor modified or non modified.

[Marauder57]

First off I spotted some stuff you missed on your list Dennis....the kitchen sink! :D That is not a kit....that is a serious assembly....Zack I REALLY look forward to hearing how you like this bad boy.....

As for an SC and longevity....this is a tough question really....I mean there are so many variables on engine life with just a stock MM....I think it is fair to say that most of your vendors or pretty much all have taken the time to make what they feel is safe power....but I don't think anyone including Ford will say "Hey I guarantee you will get "X" out of your car....I do think the "depends upon the driver" is a big variable....

But I must say I admire the "Let's get it on" attitude that Zack has and that is guy who will really get the most enjoyment out of his car! :D

I've said this before, it applies here again. This isn't just any old automobile, it's destined to be a classic, another '57 Chevy, and we still see them out and about, yes?

This car won't be passing away anytime soon, own one, build it right, and drive it forever. The bone yards have a 10 year supply of panther parts, you're not going to run short anytime soon. The aftermarkets are chock full of options too, a supercharger is only part of it. Whole motors are available under 3K.

Longevity isn't predictable, a lot depends on you. But, I think this car has a shelf life longer that you expect. The Lord knows it will out live me.
