why would you want to disgrace a ford by putting a brand x motor in it? ![[BS flag]](graemlins/bs_flag.gif)

How is it a pain in the ass? They make all bolt in parts to do the swap? Its no different than doing a 351 swap or a modular swap. As for putting a chevy in a mustang I'm not real big on that idea. Shit you can go fast in any make or modle car if you know how to build it!!!

haha you guys...so pessimistic all the time its not too bad of a job and hes got a tremec tko for it and yes hes getting the 600 dollar kooks custom headers and the k member and bell housing everything else isn't too bad, i am more of an optimist. thanks for all the hate though, but i didn't ask IF i should do it I asked HOW and what i need so if you don't intend to help then keep your typing fingers to your self peace

The look on peoples faces when you open the hood will make it worth the effort to do so. Im feeling inspired. I think I'll put an LS1 in a coupe too. And I'll make sure its one of those ssp cars that everyone praises while Im at it. lol

what look? most guy's just walk away, Then go look at the stangs with ford motors putting down faster times. Then try to figure out why the guy wasn't smart enough to make a ford run the number?

I am all about keeping it Ford, unless you are putting a LS7 in it or whatever the 427ci ZO6 motor is.
However, I have a Dart Block, Scat Rotating Assembly, Probe Pistons, Edelbrock heads and waterpump, etc. So, can I still say that I have a Ford Powerplant? I did keep the Cobra Intake and stock valve covers!!

Dart didn't develope there own designs. They are patterened after somthing. So if it looks like a duck it is a duck...My 408 is the same way I can not think of one part that is a ford OEM part. I might have to use a factory timming cover bolt. It is still designed after a 351 Windsor and you can bolt OEM ford parts on it.

hey 2 stangs pretty much...your annoying i really could care less how much you want to keep ford ford, but at the end of the day it really doesnt matter, and it has nothing to do with not being able to build a ford motor to be fast... he got a 500hp crate motor built and then decided he doesnt want the camaro so instead of selling it and throwing money in the trash were going to put it in my old car, which was fast enough but what the hell, so stop crying if you dont like it then stop posting
