Mustang Engine Upgrades
WHAT IT DOES
Engine upgrades for Mustangs are about pushing the performance envelope, whether you’re chasing top-end horsepower, track reliability, or quarter-mile dominance. From internal builds to bolt-ons, it’s all about unlocking the full potential of Ford’s legendary 5.0L Coyote platform (or the older 4.6L/5.4L mod motors if you're running a classic).
Most builds start with proven bolt-ons, but when you're ready for real power, Whipple superchargers and supporting engine mods take over.
WHY IT MATTERS
Whipple Superchargers: Big power, big reliability. Easily adds 200+ HP and transforms the car’s entire powerband
Forged Internals: Pistons, rods, and cranks built to handle boost and high RPM without flinching
Cams & Valvetrain: Custom cam profiles wake up top-end power and deliver that nasty lope at idle
Oil Pump Gears & Crank Sprockets: A must-have for boosted Coyotes; prevent high-RPM failures
Ported Intakes & Heads: Improves airflow and lets your engine breathe at higher RPMs
Cooling Mods: Oil coolers, upgraded radiators, and thermostats keep temps in check under abuse
Whether you're chasing 600 HP with bolt-ons or building a 1000+ HP street car, Ames Ford Performance builds Mustangs that don’t just pull hard — they stay together under pressure..
F-150 Engine Upgrades
WHAT IT DOES
Truck engine upgrades are all about torque, towing, and throttle response, but that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice speed. Whether you’re building a show truck, a workhorse, or something that can handle both, performance upgrades to your truck’s engine can bring power and confidence under any load.
From 5.0L V8s to 3.5L EcoBoosts and even diesel Power Strokes, we upgrade the entire drivetrain to work harder and last longer.
WHY IT MATTERS
Superchargers for 5.0L V8s: Roush and Whipple kits bring insane torque and low-end grunt for lifted or loaded builds
Tuners & Programmers: Tweak shift points, add throttle response, and calibrate for tires/gears
Intake & Exhaust Systems: Let your engine breathe easier and improve low-end torque delivery
Turbo Upgrades (EcoBoost): Bigger turbos = more boost, more towing power, and quicker throttle snap
Oil & Cooling Systems: Keep EGTs and oil temps under control for heavy towing or off-road use
Diesel Performance Mods: EGR, intake manifold, injectors, and intercoolers built for serious torque
We build trucks that run like they’re on a mission, because yours probably is..
