AustunXXI Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I've been studying up on the 3.8, and all my ideas will be ::raspberries:: if I'm wrong... I've read the 3.8 is a 5.0 minus two cylinders. With that being said I'm going to be supercharging one but while building up the heads to be able to withstand high revs. I cant find any light weight cranks but as far as pistons and rods, and the entire valve train I think I've got it covered. Just buy the the things I'm wanting under the guise that they're for a 5.0, just buy 6 pieces instead of 8. All ^that^ crap being said, are the 3.8's really the 5.0's minus two cylinders?can't think of a whitty signature... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallblocksn95 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 not at all the ford 3.8 is actually very similar to the original GM 3.8. Maybe corporate espionage lol. check this site out for more infohttp://www.enginebuildermag.com/2001/09/rebuilding-the-ford-3-8l-engine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
