    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    Well I won't hold the Purdue thing against you and I will write down that number. I want to get through the summer with this car as a driver and when the weather gets cold it will be time to play. This is my first V8 so I will enjoy and probably abuse it a little while the weathers nice. The...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    I only go on Nitrous night. I however did go last year to see the jet semi and bus. It took a couple of days to get my hearing back. I will be on here all night surfing to find set ups. A link that is on this thread helped me get a pretty good idea with changing a cobra motor in for my stock GT.

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    I will have to check them out. I kind of like the Cobra motor idea as well. My current motor has 63000+ on it so maybe a little fewer miles would be a good foundation. I'm assuming you can still get the heads improved on the Cobra motors along with intakes? I need to know how they will fit...

    where to get tuned

    I read on another board that there is a place in Indy but good luck. I'll see if I can find the name for you. Like I said before-HOW DOES THE HOME OF THE INDY 500 NOT HAVE A GOOD GARAGE WITH A DYNO??? We have race teams for IRL here and several race tracks and one of the best drag racing...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    Oh ya and the cops love to write tickets-I have a stack of old ones. So Paul's could do an engine swap or head swap and tranny mods pretty well? The rear end I'll get done here but whoever does the motor work will have to be able to tune so I can drive the car back. Do they go by the hour or...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    I'm from New Castle. I go to Ivy Tech and start Ball State in the Fall. I work in Muncie also, just don't want to move there yet. From what I've been reading on the boards you have to go to Ohio for everything. It seems that nobody in Indy does Mustangs very well or aren't rip offs. I...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    I have an automatic not a manual. I want to keep the automatic. I don't know about that VT motor although I would be interested in checking it out. What kind of power would that 03 Cobra power put out and how easy for the installation? Also, are there a decent amount of mods that can be done...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    How hard would it be to put a Cobra motor in my 96 GT? Does anywhere sell a complete motor that will go right in that is set up well or even just a newer cobra motor? Little more help please. We have a place in town who does machine work and magnafluxing on motors and have a good rep for...

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    I'm thinking a head and cam swap with a P&P. I like the VT cams but I need to know whether a Stage I or Stage II set up would be better. I want to be streetable and probably won't go to the track much. I drive a lot of highway also. Also, is the Bullit intake worth the money or is there...

    port polishing at home?

    Thats probably not a good idea. You will never get each hole 100% accurate with a dremel. It may hurt you later on. Just my opinion.

    Cobra engine in a Gt???

    Okay, stupid question here. Would a cobra motor go in a 96GT? This is for future ideas. Thanks

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    Is the 5.4 really that good? Now would a lightly decent 5.4 put you in the same area as cams, heads, chip, and tune on the 4.6? I'm lokking to spend between $5000 and $8000 on the motor and tranny. Most of the simpler mods I can do or have done cheaply by a relative. The engine work and...

    Exhaust Isn't Loud Enough!!

    I've got Flowmaster 40's with a magnaflow x-pipe on my 96 GT and it's okay but still not loud enough. If you have an automatic you can't use BBK long tube headers. I believe hooker makes some however.

    Hypothetical motor question, let's dream!

    Okay, say I have a 96 GT-which I do. Also, let's say I want some awesome power that will light up LS1's and hopped imports. Would it be better and more cost effective to purchase a used 4.6 and then mod it or one already built from a dealer? Also, could you get big power by staying NA or do...

    1996 GT Audio question for Newbie.

    I have had my 96 GT for a little over a month and have done wheels, tires, ehaust and need a stereo system bad. I want to put in an Alpine head unit with type R interior speakers and subs. I keep seeing that my car has a 1" DIN-what does that mean? Can I use any regular head unit or do I need...
