i know where theres a 69 mach 1 428 4 speed car. roll over, but like 40,000 miles. that engine would look good in my engine bay....D.Hearne said:Or what we used to suggest in doing it with ugly girls ( the old bag over the head deal). Give me "real" parts to show off and make a butt-ugly motor look halfway decent that you can lift the hood for. Ford hit a home run with the car, but blew it with the engine compartment. One thing's for sure, the 331-sixpack that's in my 89 Ranger now WILL go into storage to be transplanted into either the 06 GT Stang ( I'll have one day ) or an 05-06, V6 Stang ( I like sleeper's) And it'll be something I'll be proud to lift the hood for.
Yea, and a breeze to swap in that humongous engine bay, the one redeeming quality there. With the V6, looks like there's room for two of those, side by side. Or maybe a three or four valve V10bigcat said:i know where theres a 69 mach 1 428 4 speed car. roll over, but like 40,000 miles. that engine would look good in my engine bay....

I never said I let the uglier than **** 3 valve 4.6 affect my decision, and I guess you're in a different age group than mine, back in the old days, we were proud to lift the hood at any opportunity to show off what it had.05MGT said:I wouldn't let the engine compartment sway my decision on a car. You're not even looking at it most the time unless you drive around with your hood up.
