UPDATE! upon looking more into the swap, i have realize dthat this simply isnt realistic. i understang that the gains i would get with the 460 are not that far off from the gains i would receive from a gt swap. therefor i would now like to knwo what would be needed for a gt swap on my 2013 mustang

I read a write up on what it would cost to put a 5.0 into a 3.7 Mustang. If I remember right it was going to cost over $15,000 dollars . It will be cheaper to trade your v6 Mustang for a GT . Or add a ProCharger for $5,000 (est.) and have 475 horsepower

i just got into a minor accident with it the other day (not my fault) and so there will be an accident reported on it which depreciates the value of it so i figured i would just keep the car and make it a drag car. i could loose all the accessories.
