Ls swap it
You must not even own a car, shut up ! Your opinion doesn't matter !!!!😢
@asscowboy Hell yeah bro I’d put a LS2 😁
Yea that sounds dumb asf the whole appeal of these cars is for the motor… and why put a ls in something where the motor/trans/ecu/wiring and everything else would be 2-3x the cars value. If you knew anything about these cars you would know he could direct swap a 5.4 2v from a navigator or f150 straight in, 3v direct drop in, gen 2 5.0 direct drop in. And all would leave him with money to still do cams, injectors and even force inj on some with a ls budget. And then it wouldn’t be a pos junkyard Chevy powered car it be a proper built ford.
@@whadup8178 Regardless of the automaker. You still need to change the ECU, TCM, wiring and etc. A LS engine is far more reliable then your junk ford motor. Statistically speaking on behalf of LS sales vs fords. The LS has way more sales then your average 305 or 4.6. I’d rather go through a far more headache putting a LS in my mustang then swapping it with a junk 5.4. Because in the long run I know it’s going to do me very well.
@@goodmfvibes8821 spend a lot of money for the same result only thing you’d have to change is the ecu and wiring and that’s pretty much just for the 5.0 and 5.0 would still be more reliable cheaper, and better in every aspect. Also wouldn’t be putting a Chevy motor in a ford like a hillbilly parking lot cruiser. If you think a 2v 5.4 is junk that’s speaks on how much you know
Did you have to get different heads in order to fit the stage 3 cams ?
I did not but I did have a valve job done just to have them fresh, don’t quote me on this but I believe these heads can support .550 lift cams, and these max it out
@@ajwiley1348 I was gonna put stage 3 cams on my car but afraid of clearance issues
@@jaydenscott5028hey bro prob already solved this by now but I’m doing the stage 4 from comp cams (274s) and don’t need to do any notching or anything I think if you stay under the .500-.550 lift your good with any cam other than 278s but don’t quote me on that
What kind of injectors are they and do you have a MAF
Been a while since I got ‘em so I can’t recall the brand but they’re 30lb injectors, and yeah, still runnin the original MAF
Damn good video surprised it doesn't have more views! Great info man, do you still have the car?
Yeah man! Just stopped making videos, realized I prefer to just mod and drive it rather than worry about getting views. Only change I made recently was swapping to a trick flow intake, and swapping the interior trim to all black, other than that the car is pretty much the same
@@ajwiley1348 Good to hear, I like your build you should definitely post more. Inspiring me to get my new edge, just waiting for the right price and then I'll be going for something like yours.
I see them maine plates. Me to
I just see that too. From Maine to!
Really smooth for cruising as well
Sounds about right, considering what was done.
So 320 to the wheels means around 370 at the flywheel.....with those bolt ons no way
Peep my Instagram for the dyno sheet, probably just had a really good tuner and the right combo of mods to be honest, no one believes it haha
Not too hard too believe
Not to bad .
That's an aggressive cam
AJ, thanks for stating your height and weight. I'm considering getting a set for my mustang and was a bit concerned that I might not fit very well being 5'11" and 220#. Now that I've seen your video, I'm feeling good about getting a pair of Braum. Thanks again!
When you did cams did you get me valve springs? Or anything else
Yeah I got the beehive valve springs and retainers that were recommended to go with it. Also had a valve job done prior to the install cuz it had like 95,000 on it or somethin, and I recently had my heads ported
@@ajwiley1348did you uave to buy new cam gears too?
@@ajwiley1348 im currently having issues with my heads , apparently I have low compression on one of the heads , you think I should get them rebuilt and install beehive valve springs , retainers and do a cam job while im already in there?
Yeah you might as well, much easier to just do it all at once, it’ll save a bunch of time and money. And as far as the cam gears go, it was so long ago I can’t remember, but I’m pretty sure I did change to adjustable ones
How fast would the 0-60 be on that thing I’m wondering
300 hp? If he can hook up the launch I’d say 4.5-5 seconds. These mustangs are fairly quick despite having “low” hp by today standards. 😊
@@angelgjr1999 that’s still good in my eyes hahah
@@angelgjr1999 so he dropped a whole 1.5 seconds. Only thing it needs is a vortech & slicks
im running 320 whp, and 380 lbft. the key is gears and a proper intake, plus get your car tuned FOR YOUR PARTS. good tires help more than people think as well. it is not hard to make power out of these cars
im also running a fatter throttle body, intake manifold, and its tuned on e85.
@@Septagrim mod list? Also whats some good front tires brand , im going with 315 toyo r888 for the back
@@Marios2v for a good street tire id go for a Michelin PS4S up front, good in all weather conditions and they seem to corner well
How much would this cost if I wanna do it ?
I’m actually gunna do a video on this at some point breaking it down piece by piece once I actually get it tuned and to 100%. I think my final bill altogether was close to $12k but I did a few extra things too, motor alone was probably around $8k
@@ajwiley1348_A 4v termi swap be a little cheaper, but it's fun to build things knowing what your did to it._
@DoctorRickSanchez Yeah I looked into that too, but at the end of the day I don’t care about hp numbers much and would wanna do a big cam stroker with the termi motor anyway. If I ever get financially set I want to buy a bone stock Cobra and swap over all the good parts
Is this whp or crank?
To the wheels!
@@ajwiley1348 My 03 GT runs at 40 psi fuel. Is that normal? Idk what mods previous owner did. It has full bolt ons and 4.10 gears.
@@angelgjr1999 after a bit of research it seems normal but I would ask a professional just to be safe. Not gunna lie I know a bit of the ins and outs of new edges but as far as stuff like that goes, I leave it to my mechanic and tuner haha. Trying to learn more everyday but still have a ways to go
That's to the crank my dude and your definitely not over 300hp
That's crank horsepower no way that's wheel horsepower
Nice build!
i love jdm cars always have and will but this car i have always wanted one as a kid hopefully i can get my hands on one of these in the near future for my first car. Any things to look out for these cars especially a 2004?
That’s what’s up man. Not really anything too special to look for unless you live up north, they’re pretty rust prone. There’s a huge aftermarket selection for these cars and a lot of people that know how to work on them and tune them, so as long as you have a clean body as a starting point, you should be fine
@@ajwiley1348 sweet thanks for the advice man i live in so cal so rust isn’t really a problem unless the car been park over grass for years but what mods would you recommend i do to the car first? or should i focus on better steering and handling then performance mods?
I personally would set it up with coilovers and wheels/ tires first, makes it look more aggressive and sets it up so it’s easier to handle more power. Then probably intake/full exhaust, then heads and cams. All up to what you’re goin for at first tho
They are so old at this point there is very few left… you just might be better off looking for something else. If you do get one it probably needs a whole new suspension. I mean everything.. control arms and all new bushings.. you’re talking $3000 to do that…
@@keithbellair9508 yeah i kinda came to this point already. I know a few of my neighbors that have them in pretty good/ decent condition but they wanted like 15k+ for it as much as i love the new edge mustangs i already bought my 2014 infiniti q60
Quick question, is it better to buy a catback from borla than to have a muffler shop custom make the piping for the catback and weld in the borla mufflers? 🤔
Or will it be the same thing
I would say to buy the cat back, unless you’re looking to do something extra special like quad tips or something. If you want good work done it would probably end up being much more expensive than just buying it and having a shop throw it on
So I have plenty of experience with the mod motors. The over 300 rwhp claim seems a bit high without some added compression or cubes.
Not a “claim”, ended up finding the dyno sheet after this, it’s posted on my Instagram. Just had a really good tuner I guess
@@ajwiley1348 Nit trying to bash you man, but it is easy to manipulate dyno correction factors. I had the 270 AH Comp Cams in my GT as well. Factory PI lower, Accufab upper with 75mm TB, Mac LT’s, Bassanni catted X, Borla catback, ported factory MAF, Densecharger CAI, Steeda UD pullies, .30 over with flat top pistons, stock heads. This ended up with the motor being 12.5 :1 compression. Car put 330 down running out of injector, maybe 20 left on table, maybe. ProDyno in SC tuned the car. He has tuned plenty of cammed 2V cars and was a sponsor at Mustang week for years. Pretty standard to see 270ish on cammed cars with exhaust. 99% of the mod tuners with good reputations will tell you that you won’t break 300 without compression or cubes with our mods. Even at that, the factory plastic intake is a choke point, which is why Trickflow developed there own version of a Bullitt style intake. At 5700 the factory intake is done so even our cams weren’t fully benefitted with the factory intake. Just some info from a bunch of years messing with the mod motors. I have been through good tuners and shitters. There are definitely folks out there who will be you to get you money. But when the motor cracks up, they will take ZERO responsibility for a crap tune or crappy setup degree job on cams. That is why I learned to do as much as possible myself. And when I get something tuned, I am there watching what is going on with the AFR, CF, fuel table, spark table, etc.
Can you put all current mods in the description
Where do you buy your stroker kit
I got mine off of ModMax.com, they have a few different options and their customer service is great, ran into a few issues with parts though but im pretty sure they fixed them
@@ajwiley1348 the website doesn't pop up whenever I click on the link it just sends me to American Muscle
That’s weird… try just googling it, think it’s actually modmaxracing.com now
I’m doing the same thing. Gonna swap in a 4.6 to 5.0 stroker into my v6 new edge
Sick dude, you won't regret it! I thought it was kinda fast with just the cams, but now this thing MOVES
Working on a 2v na build now. I’ve experimented with maf’s and an 86mm is better than the 80mm and 90mm. A ported crown Vic intake elbow is actually better than a trick flow. So far I’m still stock longblock with ported gt manifolds and a ported pi intake 75mm tb steeds pulleys 3.73’s with a 10” convertor. The 10” is 13 lbs lighter than a stock convertor and it made a lot of difference. It’s an 03 vic. I’m tuning with a delta sniper and those dudes make it easy to do. Ported heads and cams with more compression are next on the list. But there’s always something else getting wrote on the list to…
Damn dude, sounds like you’ve got quite the build goin on. I’m still waiting on my intake, ordered a trick flow back in March and it probably won’t get here till November haha. Heads and cams definitely make a huge difference, but I also just went built motor which made it a whole new animal. Got a couple videos on it if you want to check them out, still trying to get a dyno tune though
Awesome build brotha..👍
Sounds great🔥🔥🔥
What up Bushboyz??
@@NewEdgeDesigns I’m good bro keep making great content
I would say this is a respectable build for someone who isn't too deep into the SN95s. No over the top stuff like fuel systems, boost, ported heads, tubular components, etc, just easy to do bolt ons. And while it is very true that the build isn't really anything special, it is clean and it does what you want it to do. Good job for just being content with what you wanted!
Ditch those iridium Spark plugs for some brisk silver plugs a step colder. Iridium isn’t better cause it costs more. It just prevents the Karen’s from having to pay for service for 125k miles. For performance you want copper or silver.

How are you fitting stage 3 cams on stock pistons without interference?
Probably sheer luck tbh haha, I did it like 5 years ago and knew nothing about engines back then
The stock PI pistons have a small dish. Couple that with factory 530 lift and not to much worry. I had same cams in a flat top piston 4.6 that made considerably more at the tire. Just degree them in right.
@@gr8whitestang613 the dish doesn't help the piston still has the lip where the valves hit. always good to check em.
@@joem3970 not sure how you have PTV contact on the edge of the piston. They are canted in the stock heads which cause the valve to contact closer to center if not timed right. The angle of the intake and exhaust ports have some bearing on the angle of the valves. I have smiley faced a few in my SOHC adventures, every one has been closer to center.
Hey bro what kind of exhaust u got
Check out my other videos! I have a whole video dedicated to my exhaust and why I got it
@@ajwiley1348 oh ok thx
300 is good for a n/a 2v. Love the car, I’m hoping to build mine to around 300 n/a

@@ajwiley1348 Ti ho sentito parlare…… Parli italiano?
Hey man I got about the same built pi heads and intake and cams the pi heads are ported with an tune I think I’m getting a little over 300 hp
That’s what’s up dude. Just ported my heads as well while the block was in the machine shop, interested to see how much of a difference it makes. Stock intake manifold for now tho
Don't know why so many of you guys are clowning on the man. His car is clean and makes more power than a stock mach 1. And could potentially be cheaper than a clean mach 1. Sounds good and that's reliable NA power without doing a motor swap. Solid build.
Appreciate it man! Not many people can appreciate a clean “reliable” built car which is what I’m goin for
Even as an SN95 owner, the Mach 1s aren't a good power benchmark lol. Nearly the fastest trim you could get on these cars and still only on par with a regular Chevy SS of the same decade
@@ForeverDrivin I don’t agree there. My 2001 GT stock went 13.60’s @ 100 flat. Much of what happens to the GT’s are guys rev them to the limiter, and the PI’s are done at 5700. They loose power after that pretty substantially. So just flat foot shifting at 5700 got me 13.60’s at Darlington. The car wasn’t a freak, it put down the standard 230ish stock. I raced plenty of Camaros and Trans Ams when it was stock and ran similar times give or take a tenth depending on who was driving. I could get 13.20’s in a stock Mach1 manual. The autos had the slush box in them and were slower by a lot
@@gr8whitestang613 Yeah those older slush boxes are not optimal lol. Need manuals in older cars for speed. You're running 13.6s on stock? Most stock 3Vs run 13.5s at absolute best, with an extra 40-60hp so idk if you're exaggerating or if you're just one hell of a driver! Get yourself in a 3V and maybe do a comparison 1/4th lol
@@gr8whitestang613 Do you recommend changing the PI? If so which ones are best
Five-and-a-half minutes to say, "I swapped cams". I didn't click for a tour of your suspension.

Save your money and just boost it
You realize the 2V needs upgraded fuel system and your gonna need more airflow to run boost, so long tube headers throttle body and intake. U need to do most of those mods to even run boost reliably

Holy cow! That sounds so good!
What part of Maine are you from
Currently in Biddeford
For anyone wondering, it's a lot cheaper to grab an on3 turbo kit, and you can safely make 400-450 at the wheels as long as your tuner keeps the torque in check. Run 9lbs of boost, get your turbo noises, and gap stock s550 mustangs for $2500. 2v engines don't do well with bolt ons so just save your money. If you want N/A power, get a 4v or (Ford forgive me 😭) LS swap it.
Costs more than $2500 for the turbo swap. Need a k member and a tune on top of the $2500. Close to $4000
@@sategllib2191 i mean, I wasn't really counting the tune and extra parts since you could dump money everywhere when making double the factory whp, but regardless my point still stands. You're better off spending 4k (or more, because more power means more failure points) on a turbo setup, rather then 4k on bolt ons that you'll be lucky to see anywhere near 300 whp from. Right?
@@blkspec9973 yeah, you could get 300 wheel with bolt ons, cams and npi pistons. But still gonna be damn near the cost of the turbo anyways in the end, unless you do some serious bargain and used market shopping. All just depend on what you want to do
