[V8] when 280hp and 295ft/lbs just aren't enough...

[Jeremy Ward]

Good morning,

 

I seem to recall that some folks with the 4.2 have swapped over the air
intake from the 3.6 cars, as well as the exhaust headers.  Is this real, or
am I dreaming again?  What all is involved?

 

I also seem to recall that the folks who have swapped a 4.2 into their 3.6
cars (and kept the 3.6 ECU) have a little more umpf than the native 4.2
cars.  Can anyone expand upon this?

 

I washed both cars this weekend, and swapped over a few parts.  I plan to
update my website soon with my project, but for now the initial photos can
be seen here:

Note: the hood/grill on the Cyclamen car is a little straighter than it used
to be - more to follow later.

 

Cheers,
