I had a 03 Gt, it was a beautiful car, but I was disappointed with the power, it did not seem to have the guts of any of my 5.0s, so I traded it for a Mach 1, the rush was back! I would try for a Cobra or Mach 1 engine. I am NOT putting down 4.6 GT cars, I loved mine, it just did not give me that rush.

i also wanted to know if i will still be able to use my 96 mustang clutch on the new engine, the production date on my engine says 6/02 so its a 02 not 03.

You need a bigger clutch then...I forgot what the size was.
