The new mustang is going to depress me. I won't be able to hang with it unless i were to put LOTS of money into my car

JohnC · January 12th, 2010, 01:21 PM

You can. Swap in the new 5.0 in your car. It can be done as it reads - the trans bell and engine mount bolt pattern remains the same as the 4.6L mod motor had.

How to control the cams variable timing might need an after-market add-on, though.

P.70

"Rods are more than enough for n/a and 7k rpm's, but will not survive forced induction."

Seems the only flaw I've read so far...

ModMustang97GT · January 12th, 2010, 02:37 PM

So its the same as the 4.6 only flows way better and puts out way better power stock. Sounds like a solid platform for some 351 rivaling power.

JohnC · January 12th, 2010, 04:34 PM

What it sounds like to me is a killer engine swap for us!

ModMustang97GT · January 12th, 2010, 05:04 PM

Plus aluminum block, plus smaller size so it doesn't absorb your entire enging bay.

I'm pretty excited. Bet its a year before enyone can get one for a swap though.

97Dustang · January 20th, 2010, 12:15 PM

why try to disable the variable valve timing? swap computers/ harnesses yea its gonna be a while until anyone of us can find a wrecked one.

HBK_2007 · January 21st, 2010, 01:04 PM

Agree.

They did a super good job on that article. So much more detail than I expected any of the mags would do. I had to go out and buy that issue after I seen these scans!

that kinda stuff is why i like that mag, they seem to do more tech than mmff while mmff does more car show-cases. ive read that article like 4 times already.
i wonder if id have to swap the computer along with the engine
