    From 5.0 to 2.3T

    The easiest bet would be for you to grab a complete 87-88 turbo coupe and you'd have to swap the entire engine management system and re route a fuel line i think. Im not sure, but i would bet that all the mounts and everything could swap right over from the thunderturd. Im not sure if you would...

    If i remeber right, the 5.0 swap in a fox body is one of the few engine swaps the requires you to remove a fender ? :scratch: fuel lines or something i think

    93 Mustang LX 2.3L

    :hail2: you can swap in a 2.3T for less then half the cost of a 5.0 swap and $2000 less then buying a used 5.0. If you find a good deal on a donnor car, you could be boosting for less then $600 easy.

    Yo "Mr.Woodster"...

    you guys sound like two little kids on the playground kicking sand at each other and screaming. If i had a bottomless cash supply and friends at big time race parts company's, I could build a model T that would run 7secconds in the 1/4 but i dont. You say you own this super car that makes...

    Ahhh its starting already!

    :shrug: I have rubber hoses and grounds connected to everything in my engine bay. It looks like a big spiderweb. I think the car makes about 1000hp since I added them all :D No motor is invincible. I asure you that every 2.3L can be blown up. If you've ever worked as any kind of Tech, the...

    2.3 N/A tear down complete, Taking suggestions on what to put back in it

    exactly :D If this is your long term project, and your planing on making this a drag car, First you have to set a goal for how fast you want to go. If you only want to make 350hp and run in some weekend warrior bracket class, the parts you need will be different from a 500hp set up. As...

    i think they sell kits to stuff the v6 motor thats in my mustang II into those cars. Never drove a british car like that, but they are supposed to be a blast aren't they?

    what could go wrong with a 2.3 to 2.3T swap???

    Once you get it running good and making some good power, suddenly you wont be happy with it. You will want more and more power. It happens to all of us :D

    Looky what I got

    2.8L = $150 :p Im not sure if the borad is still up or not, but there used to be a board called the ranger station i used to post on alot before it changed servers or something. The emmissions control setup (especially the carb) in those is really funky. Theres an easy conversion that uses...

    what to do?5.0L or 2.3T?

    So you saying with a self ported head and manifolds, with a gutted upper, 3" downpipe with a decent exhust and FMIC you couldn't make 300hp at the flywheel?

    what to do?5.0L or 2.3T?

    Somewhat. I've rebuilt engines "the right way" and i've done back yard shade tree rebuilds that make respectable power too. I haven't done the 2.3T swap yet, but if you can score a running 87-88 TC for $300 ( they are around here for that much), and can do some porting yourself, i dont see why...
