Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Duratec Performance SVT Parts swap

I have done a quick search and found nothing so I am askin if I swaped Heads, UIM, LIM, and throatal body all for SVT parts what kinda power am I looking at or is there a better way of going about it?

Yeash, swap in an entire 3L motor it will be cheaper than buying all those SVT parts and having to rebuild the engine with the SVT parts, only to end up with the same amount of power.

The only other thing I would suggest is do a 3L PLUS use the SVT cams.

10HP, maybe 15HP if you had other supporting mods. (intake, exhaust, chip)

Add another 10HP for the SVT cams if they are included in the "SVT heads" part.


The SVT UIM, RLIM, and SVT TB are all good upgrades after you have intake & exhaust.

I'd skip the heads & save the cams for when you upgrade to a 3L engine.

yeah i've added the svt parts your talking about,minus the heads and cams..cams i do have just waiting to do something with them....anyways there isnt alot of power to be felt with the manifolds,tb,etc...until i did the custom chip..go through adc,it works nice,minus the premium gas at 2.35 a gallon ..i have the apex'i unit,just waiting for a nice day,and a dyno tune..
