Can I convert my V6 to a V8 GT?

kobebryant · February 6th, 2007, 07:31 PM

How much work would it be to put a 5.0L engine in my v6 96 Mustang. Or even just a V8 engine like the ones that are in the GTs. Thanks!

Umm too much to be worth it....just buy a supercharger for your v6.

u can put anything in anycar u want...its just the money...it wouldnt be worth it unless u got the engine for free

exhaust, gears and v8 swap...most common questions

you'd need a built rear or an 8.8 rear end.
a tune and someone to reprogram the computer n wat not for the car.
a tune
and an engine of course
in then end it'll be cheaper to sell your car for a v8. or it'll cost you like $4k

you'd need a tuner and pulleys probably. and your headers better be long tubes

waste of money for a engine swap ... just switch cars or mod the shiet out of the 6 ... and your asking teh wrong guys =] we want you to stay as a fellow v6er
