2003 300A - Terminator swap - 14k

[Jon01]

03 300a
52k on car.
Terminator longblock with ~40k on it. Stock motor was replaced by me with intentions of putting big boost on it. It was sold in perfect running order to another MM.net member.

Mods other than motor:
Lowered
4.10's
PI 3200
Nitto's
Zack tune
J-mod
Tint
Pro-Guard
Flowmasters
Silverstars
Dynotech driveshaft
CF Clutches in t-lock
Real gauges
Car cover

No ticks/knocks or anything. Always been an adult owned and garaged 2nd car so never beaten to death or neglected.

Also have a nearly complete Eaton swap that could go with the car for another 1500 - Steg VI, Intake/I/C, CAI, 60's, BAP, etc...

If you're looking for a good place to start for a big hp build this is it.
PM for more info.

Can you post pics???

[Jon01]

Pics are pre-tint and lowering. Looks the same otherwise just lower and with darker windows.

Click on the thumbs to blow them up.

As you can see by my sig, I know my way around a wrench and I don't mess around with junk. This car was built to run for a LONG time safely in the high 400rwhp range.

[Jon01]

Will not sell Eaton swap seperate from the car.

[sailsmen]

Please clarify what engine is in the car. :confused:

[Jon01]

03/04 Cobra longblock - forged crank, manley rods, forged pistons. Same motor people are making 1000+rwhp with in turbo Cobra's.

Good luck with sale. Nice car! Are you replacing it with anything Jon?

[Vortech347]

So its running 8.5:1 compression instead of 10:1.

Thanks! Yeah, always something coming or going in my garage. :)

Yes, which is why I stated it's perfect for someone wanting to do a big HP build or to live comfortably @ ~500rwhp for years.
In the meantime, run 87/89 and enjoy no pinging. It honestly is only down 12rwhp from what the stock high compression motor made so it's hardly a slouch.

[Jon01]

Nobody wants a Marauder that has nearly all of the hard work done and is ready to make some serious HP?
I'm open to reasonable offers, ready to move on to the next thing...

[babbage]

free bump, again nice MM

[345HP87SSAC]

How much is missing to complete the T swap?

[Jon01]

Gortsch brackets are the only major components left to put the Eaton on it.

[Jon01]

Back up. Nobody wants a car with a built motor for the price of one with a stock junk internal motor?.

Hard to believe this hasn't sold.

Not everyone wants to spend the extra 3-4k to take advantage of it. You can find Eaton'd MM's for 12-14k.

Maybe with 80-100k that have been daily driven.
You won't find a low mileage garage queen like this car for that kind of $.

"....stock junk internal motor"? Nice. :shake:

[Joe Walsh]

"....stock junk internal motor"? Nice. :shake:

I kinda agree.....look at the fairly weak stock internals of our Mod motor vs. the current 5.0L Mod motor.
With boost, people are getting ridiculous amounts of reliable HP on the Coyote......and it puts out 420 HP stock.


BTW: GLWS....nice Marauder!

Sorry, did I hurt your feelings stating the obvious?
I can't count how many folks have turned stock motors inside out after trying to make more than 400rwhp. They just won't do it, stock pistons and to a lesser extent, rods just aren't up to the task.

You won't have that problem with this one. I've seen plenty of people make 1000+rwhp with stock Terminator motors. This thing should handle enough power to propel the car well into the 11's which was my original goal with this car.

I couldn't agree more, I have a friend with an auto '13 GT that's stock other than a ProCharger. It runs 7.20's on street tires. Bone stock car otherwise.
Another has a stock Coyote motor+Novi in his Capri with a T56. He just did Drag Week, clicking off consistent low 10's at 140+mph.
Thanks for the compliment!

I'm open to reasonable offers, I'm ready to move on to the next project.

[345HP87SSAC]

If I didnt have my ly6 aerocoupe I would look at yours to match my wifes vortech Marauder.

glws ttt

[Jon01]

Thanks guys, I've had a couple lowballs but it's still here.
I'd like to move it before winter so I can have the storage spot back but I'm not going to give it away.
This is a no ******** car - no broken trim pieces, no melted harness, no dents/dings/scratches - nothing wrong with it at all.

[jimlam56]

Jon,
How did you lower the car? One pic of the new stance would be nice ;)
What's the history of ownership?
Winter/salt use?
Are the pictures of the engine the new one or the original?
Thanks,
Jim
