If your 2024 GT has been eyeing what the Dark Horse is making, this is your answer. Or maybe you need a head start on that Coyote swap.

This Gen 4 Dark Horse long block is a direct drop-in replacement for the Dark Horse and a straight upgrade for the GT. Aluminum block, 12mm head bolts for higher clamp load, cross-bolted main caps, 12.0:1 compression, a forged steel crank, and a 9.5 quart oil pan.

Rated at 500 horsepower from the factory, and the architecture to handle a whole lot more. Coming in at $6,900, comparatively speaking, that's a great deal.

Godzilla swaps are gaining steam. Here's how you get yours off on the right foot.
Ford Performance's 7.3L Control Pack includes the standalone ECU, the engine and body harness, throttle body, accelerator pedal, intake assembly, MAF adapter, and the pigtails and grounds that actually let the engine run outside of a Super Duty. Without this kit, you've got a 430 horsepower paperweight.
The Godzilla is the swap engine right now and for good reason. Pushrod V8 simplicity, a bottom end that just won't die, 475 pound-feet from the factory, and aftermarket support that has gone from nothing to everything in three years.
If you're building a Mustang, a Bronco, a Falcon, an F-100, or any Ford that needs torque and reliability over revs, this is the platform. Come talk to us.

Six hundred fifty-five horsepower. Seven hundred ten pound-feet of torque. Pump gas.
This is Ford Performance's 572 cubic inch big block, a modern revival of the 385 series motor that gave us the 429, the 460, the Boss 429, and the original Super Cobra Jet. Same family. Modernized. Aluminum SCJ heads, forged S**t crank and rods, Diamond pistons, Edelbrock Victor intake, an 870 cfm Holley sitting on top.
This is the motor for the Galaxie that's been sitting on jack stands for three years. The Torino your dad never got back together. The Mach 1 you found rough, but worth fixing. The F-100 you've been collecting parts for.
If a big block Ford is on your build list, come talk to us.

New Edge in the shop. Lift's up, hood's open, decisions to be made.

If this one was yours, what would you do with it? Freshen up the stock Two-Valve and add a blower? Drop a Coyote between the rails? Go full Godzilla and never look back? Terminator swap and keep it modular? Maybe a single-turbo Two-Valve and let it eat?

There's no wrong answer with a New Edge. What's the move?

There was a time when every Fox at a car show was rolling on Pony wheels or a set of Cobra R replicas.
The Fox crowd has stepped its game up. Kenny Meade's coupe is wearing a set of Forgelines, and a Motorcraft livery that looks like it just came in from twenty hot laps at VIR.
The Fox Mustang is enjoying a second coming, and we're here for it.
What's the best set of wheels you've ever seen on a Fox?

Boss 302 Laguna Seca purists may want to turn away.
This one has twin turbochargers under the hood. We know such an extensive modification might be frowned upon in some circles, the Boss 302 engine was born for boost. Ford built the Road Runner motor with forged internals from the factory because they knew where these cars were going to end up.
Some did. Some didn't.

These are rare and desirable cars. Would you boost yours?

There was a time when this was the dream engine bay. We say those days aren't over.
Hot small block Ford, supercharger hanging off to the side, Edelbrock intake up top. Every magazine from back in the day featured builds just like this one. We still build them like they used to.
What's the build you've been dreaming about since high school?

This Grabber Lime is anything but a sleeper.
It might be one of the brightest hues Ford has ever sprayed on a Mustang, and that's saying something. Six decades of Mustangs and Ford's never been afraid of color. Poppy Red, Calypso, Highland green, Grabber blue, Wimbledon white, Twister orange, Ruby red, Velocity blue. Every era has its hue.
What's your favorite Mustang color of all time?

Never be late for church or bingo ever again.
We swapped a Terminator combination into this 1962 Fairlane and now it makes 650 horsepower at the wheels. Supercharged 4.6 DOHC out of an '03 Cobra, sitting where a 100-horsepower straight-six used to live. In stock form, no one's looking twice at this thing in a parking lot, but we changed that.
What's the best sleeper you've ever seen?

Mic check. We’re well underway on our 2026 season with events to prepare us for our 2026 NASA Nationals down at Sebring International Raceway.

Our Technitron, Inc. home-built GT350R runs in NASA’s American Iron Xtreme, GT and Time Trial GT with a Coyote-based engine with a tialsport turbo, Quaife Engineering QBE69G transmission and a Torsen differential to help plant our Hoosier Racing Tire tires to the ground with help from an APR Performance GT-2000 rear wing and custom aero.

We’re hoping to add to our 9 NASA National Championships in this car this year at Sebring!
