Swap Ideas


i have two options for my gt i wanna do fairly soon...

1. buy 02 2v and cams for my 96 and do a swap

full swap with new clutch flywheel and gears comes to 3200.

2. get a free, mach 1 32v dohc motor from an 03 mach that had been flooded, but shows no sign of water in motor, and rebuild the motor for 1200. put clutch flywheel and gears in for an extra 1100. will also need new guages and ecu and wiring harness (500)

i wanna do second option but ive had some people iffy about it.

mach 1 engine all the way man, if your swapping an engine im sure you could deal with fixing the little bit of water damage that could be problematic anyways..

Mach 1. More challenging swap, but worth it in the end.

Dumb question is dumb Such an easy choice. 32v > 16v so much can be done with that car and it will be bad ass.
