    T-5, i'm about to give up....

    Well that isn't too bad, It might take me a bit longer but to expect any power from the 6 at all...I would need a manual tranny.

    Engine swap

    You got some money? Rear end, five lug all around, all around new suspension, new/used trans, and motor mounts. And If you go all new, that adds up to more than selling this and buying a V8 car. Most guys here will say the exact same thing. They saved me a lifetime of troubles and money. If you...

    T-5, i'm about to give up....

    I only have about that much to spend, and that is without a rebuild...plus there is the bellhousing, crossmember, and so forth....maybe this will cost more than I thought...?

    4 cyl T-5

    I am reconsidering the aussie head too, 600 for a used head is way too much...if I can find a good deal I might try it but 600 is too much IMO.

    4 cyl T-5

    People usually go off of fads, the biggest one out there is to have a huge stroker engine laying out high 3 digit HP numbers and Gobs of torque. But truth be told, it is getting old, and more expensive. For the price of one souped up V8, you could have possibly 2 I6's that could beat the hell...

    4 cyl T-5

    4 cyl T-5

    What setup do you have? Do you plan on using the V8 tranny or a 4cyl tranny? This may be a swap that is too expensive for me. But not long ago my father said, "I would think about putting a manual in it" So i might can remind him of his statement and try to take advantage of that....parents are...

    4 cyl T-5

    Money is the all inclusive factor....I have $200-220 for sure and the rest is with the parents.......the engine rebuild for now will be next to free and I was hoping to find a tired T-5 and have it rebuilt..for cheap of course. Yeah the thing I like about the 200 is that it is different...I want...

    4 cyl T-5

    Well will a turbo be too much for a 4 cyl tranny? i thought the V8 trans would be too much for the non-turbo and the turbo might be too much for a 4 cyl trans..quite a predicament, but the turbo and newer head might not be a sure thing so i will go for the 4 cyl tranny i guess. What do you think?

    4 cyl T-5

    I will be keeping the six as the sig says and I can only do so much to improve performance. In the future I hope to have a 203ci with an aussie head, bigger carb, a turbo and a T-5. The T-5 is in the more immediate future and while the guys at fordsix.com are helpful, they don't reply as...

    Can this be considered a classic car?

    I just thought it looked like another attempt to not only be different.....but to boldy go where nobody wants to go. Wouldn't that be weird though...went to lowes today, got some 2 x 4's and put 'em in the back of my mustang....anyway i thought some of you might enjoy that.

    SRT??

    Just a thought, but maybe the $3000 is spent on the biggest bottle of nitrous that would fit........just a thought

    SRT??

    I am a little late getting into the conversation and I don't own a latemodel but My friend has an SRT-4 and he cannot stand it....better gas mileage yes, but factor in the premium gas, which is very expensive now and you will be paying about the same as you would for a V8. Now why the hell would...
