I have had a 98 Tuarus with a Duratec that pushed 265hp, I have had a 99 Taurus with a Vulcan that pushed 315hp and a 96 SHO that pushed 380hp.
The problem is the company I bought the Duratec parts from went out of buisness about 7 years ago and I don't want to supercharge it like I did the SHO and SE.
I am wanting luxury not performance.
As for mods, I have done nothing...not even a K&N.

Or maybe you are reading what you want to read just to bash him. What I gathered from his post is that he had some previous modded cars that did those numbers now he is looking into moding this engine and asked what to do in order to get 50hp.

So if you have a bare 3l engine then a set of MSDS headers, SVT cams, light headwork and intake work in the form of porting, open exhaust, and finally a retune of the PCM with SVT timing tables ought to make the engine produce an additional 50 HP over a STOCK 3L engine.
With an ATX, that may not help a lot though.

Man this site is going down and going down fast.
What is so hard to grasp about 315hp Vulcan considering all the market modifications: superchargers, pistons, cranks and exhaust/intake.?
My Duratec Taurus pulled 265hp but I am not willing to spend the money on this like I did on it, plus two of the companies I bought alot of parts for are no longer in buisness.
My SHO is my project car and I have spent close to 8k on it but it drowned and at the moment it was easier and cheaper to do this swap than to get it fixed.
Now if you wondering why I dont just get a universal supercharger for my contour it is because I am not wanting a street racer, I am wanting a sporty daily driver.

Thank you Warmonger, here is what I already have in my garage left over from another project.
Borla Cat-back Exhaust splits into a dual (Contour)
Helix Cut Cold Air Intake (V8 SHO...I have a pipe bender)
ROSS Pistons (3L Duratec)
Pelican Steel Valves (3L Duratec)
I'll try and keep everyone updated as I go along.

Wait, this 3L is a 96? And you want to put it in what year Contour? ATX, MTX? The motor is not from the SHO is it? Sorry, I'm confused, regardless, read up on the 3L duratec, anything 2000 and under doesn't have a cam-driven water-pump like the Contour does, and IIRC (correct me if I'm wrong) will require 2.5 heads.
'99 Spruce Green SE "Sport" 'Tour, 2.5L MTX...80K and running like it just rolled off the lot.
Tryin' to add an extra .5L ASAP
