Don't you think you could build something better for that kind of money.

Yes but it depends on what type of Mustang you are working with, not everybody wants a 9 sec car. Some people like driving these things around.

this is my next project and just cant decide on which way to go. Half of me wants to just go and build my own and the other half is saying just to go that crate motor. I guess the whole smog thing is looming above my head and thats why Im leaning towards the ford racing crate motor. Im not going to be drag racing my car however I would like a decent amount of HP at the same time. So I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on this motor.

water boarding is pretty similar though.

According to your comparison, choking a chicken ain't far in terms of similarity.
