Tired Of Being Slow
i need to do something, i have a kind of limited budget and need some serious gains. im considering a swap, i feel like the whole cammed stroked blown v6 is just too much work, or am i wrong. i'd like to find a good crate engine, how bad would a swap be.

how much money do you have. you are probably better off trading in your car as a down payment on a GT

here it goes.
if your looking to upgrade to a v8 and you dont want a 4.6 than it would be worth it, If you just want a 4.6 than jus ttrade it in for a gt. |

the only way it would be worth just swapping the engine is if you have done some major body mods and u dont want to spend the money to create the same look on a different car(ex. body kit, custom paint, shit like that) otherwise if you have a stock looking mustang itd be easier just to get a GT and if you dont want a GT then get a Cobra or a Mach 1 and if ud rather have a v6 over a Cobra or a Mach 1 then u have issues

swapping to a v8 and not telling your insurance company is you looking for court time.
if you want something fast dont screw around with BS bolt ons. i know a guy selling and upper intake ported for $225 SHIPPED. thats the cheapest you'll find it i know a guy in our area that does GOOD tuning too. if you want get the intakes let me know or PM me if you cant install it i can. you have to live close anyway ive seen you at 7Eleven. the lower intake is about $300 fron rpmmustangs. i can talk to the guy for you with that too. if you wana gain more. or gears. 4.10s or the tune can help you out to from the guy in our area. or if you really wana quit screwing around with the smaller stuff. serious NITROUS. $500 will get you a good kit and you'll see 13s theres a guy a lil north of us running 13.34 at moroso. his is a 96 v6 or depending how much your budget is i can show a you a turbo kit $3800 shipped.if its not sold yet. if not theres VMPs procharger kit. with bolt ons and 11psi procharger and a tune should get you in the low 13s depending on your gears. PM me |

YES if you do a swap the last swap should be a stock GT engine...its a waste unless the engine is free
