60 sounds more realistic and even at that they are to big.you wouldnt even get above like 40% on those.60 are good for 700-800hp on the 4.0 specs even with lots of boost.the 4.0 block cant handle but 15-20lbs of boost so there is NOOOO WAY you will make over 400hp and pretty sure they say the block is only good to 350hp. Im making about 330ish at the crank and i have 36lbs injectors running 9.9lbs of boost and they are no where near 85%.but thats what your using so good luck,sure they will work but are over kill

I thought he was running a 460? I can't find the post where he said he was building a 4.0... now I'm confused.

Sweet Explorer project though!!

If Trick Flow made a set of heads for the 4.0 that would improve power even with a mostly stock motor, then yes, I'd be interested in buying.
