Ford Repair: Parts used in Rhino engines., mustang engines, stock motor
QuestionI am planning to buy a 4.6 L engine for my 2000 GT mustang from your company. I'd like to know if you use forged pistons, forge cylinders, forged connecting rods, forged crankshaft, moly rings and E cam in your Rhino Mustang engines. I just want to make sure that the parts will hold up for a turbo charge. Thank you very much.
AnswerKahn-
Unfortunately, I don't actually "work" for this site. I simply volunteer my time to answer questions. I get questions about parts sold via this site all the time and to be honest, I don't even know where the link is that leads people to a parts vendor. That all being said, I did a quick search for Rhino Engines and had a look at their specs. As far as I can tell they simply remanufacture motors to OEM specs with OEM parts. The motor should hold up just like a stock motor under boost...that is, it'll probably handle around 6-9lbs. with a good fuel system. Oh...and a quick side note...the "E" cam is only for use in older style pushrod 5.0Ls. There is a growing aftermarket for performance cams for overhead cam motors, though. Hope this helps.
