ok. it finally happend. motor is blown. I got a quote from the ford dealer for a brand new motor for 5500 bucks installed. They will not warranty it if the vortech kit is on there. so im deciding to have them take it all off.

I have a vortech s trim kit for a 2000 mustang gt with a autologic and a superchip ecm module plus a week old fast track intercooler on it. asking price is 3800 or best offer. Let me know if anyone is interested.kit comes complete with 30 lb injectors but u will have to get a highflow intank fuel pump

The strim has 14k on it and is in great condition, and the intercooler is brand new, with probably 400 miles on it.

I bought the strim kit for 3700 and the intercooler was 1700 originally so its a great deal. have all paperwork.

Also, I have a spare tremec T45 with 8k miles on it, 350 or best offer.

Steeda sportline springs for 99+ mustangs 70 dollars or best offer.


any takers please call me at 510-299-2937.

thanks everyone,

Neeraj.

maybe you should think about a motor from SHM and keeping the blower, probably would cost the same

if so just keep your stuff and get a short block for it

Damn> a lot of motors are blowing lately on this board! I wonder if this Ca. 91 gas is contributing more than what we think????
Sorry to hear about your motor> but look on the bright side! Now you can go faster

im guessing it definately has to do something with the 91 octane crap..well, i just want to return car to stock and trade in for 2003 cobra later on.. if anything im getting a brand new factory motor with brand new warranty =)

charger has 14k on it, intercooler was just put in it has 400 miles on it.

Sorry to hear about the motor. Thats the reason I got out of my old car. Too much $ to be throwing away. By the time your done, add anothe 2K to your total. So you are going to leave your car stocK?

the steeda springs drop it about 1.5 inches, try to do some research on finding out if the sc unit will fit your car and if it does, make me an offer buddy.
