Quick rundown on the naturally asperated CJ engines:
2010 4.6L 3V NHRA rated at 232 hp (probably the biggest "ringer" of all the CJ engines)....it is a "paper -part number" combo.
The engine was never built by Ford. It is a combo of Ford Racing catalog parts.
If I wanted to build a CJ...this would be the engine I would pick. 232 hp...what a joke !!
2010 428 CJ: It is a poked and stroked 351W with F.I.
This engine also never existed as a complete crate setup. It is also a "paper-part number" combo. (Same for the 358 CJ --it's a F.I. 351W )
2012 5.0 4V CJ : This engine is loosely based on the 2011-2012 Mustang GT Coyote engine....however the compression ratio is higher due to special pistons. The cam specs are different from any production Coyote 5.0.
Also, this engine was a bunch of part numbers put together. Ford does not build these Stock Eliminator engines.
I am not real familiar with the Supercharged CJ engines.
