Has anyone reached out to various performance shops or have information in regard too
1, super charger ported? GM EFI Magazine (gm-efi.com)
2, Darton sleeves creating a closed deck
3, Crank work such and knife edged, micro polished and balanced Technology | Winberg Crankshafts

I know some shops/companies offer services such as custom work as reverse engineering crankshafts, and engine internals. The link for the supercharger is showing a CTV having the same supercharger being ported along with the throttle body. Darton offers a range of sleeves, and Winberg will take an existing crank to build their high-performance model. Is there more out there for our beloved F-types or is it just a dream?

Certainly do whatever you like with your car. As it relates to the items you laid out here, I am not aware of many or any doing any of this. There was a member on here some time ago that was doing the porting/polishing, but then dropped off (Boom??..Don't know).

Based on the platform here with the 5.0 L, Eaton S/C (1900 TVS), ZF 8HP 70 HIS Trans., etc.. I think the bolt ons and tunes many have done get this platform about to it's reasonable max. Also, these cars are portly...So if you are looking for a rocket, I might start with a lighter base car.

To get these cars much past where you can with all of the Bolt-Ons/tunes, I think you have to start considering a built engine (Connect Rods, Heads...or at least head bolts, Pistons, Fueling, etc.).

Anything can be done with enough $$ and effort. Not sure what the goal is? And if the goal is a rocket...a lighter base platform is likely a better start (Like my 911 Turbo...Power - Weight ratio is insane, and can beat most any car or even motorcycle).

Good luck with whatever you are shooting for.

DC,

Thank you for the reply. I know the F-type will never be the fastest on the street, but it sure would be something to see a fully built engine pushing higher boost. I am surprised that the block is not a closed design from the factory as it can reduce many issues provided by increased boost. My main goal is to make improvements in weight reduction and power where possible I am going to start working on weight reduction such as carbon wheels, anti-gravity battery and brakes. The 911 is one of the ultimate all around platforms and then there is always 9 second GTR builds but in my opinion The F-type is work of art and the pure look of the car is second to none.

I will have to see where is takes me as far as the build goes and will continue to research options. Have a great holiday and thanks again for the reply
