diesel mustang??? hmmm

pistonhead351 · Sep 23, 2006

ive been thinking lately, well more of exagerating. but would it be possible to put say a powerstroke diesel in say a fox mustang? i know with money anything is possible. but would it physically be to big to put in there. or maybe a v8 duramax!!! i just think it would be cool as hell to do this. 500 horsepower and 1100 ftlbs of torque would be cool!

A powerstroke in a Mustang would be nearly impossible. The 7.3 weighs about 1000 lbs. Say bye bye to your front springs

i saw a v10 in a 94-97 before

yeah, how sick would that be! think about it, you'd have (like you said) a 500hp and 1100lbtq monster that gets 25mpg and only needs a rebuild every 400k! daddy likes!

What about the old 6.0 Powerstrokes

25 MPG? You smoking crack boy!! My 7.3 makes ONLY around 300/600 and gets like 14 MPG. Im sure it would be more in a smaller vehicle, but not even close to 25.

good idea... wrong motor choice I'd go with a smaller diesel, I wouldnt mind throwing a Cummins in an old school 57 caddy or 65 impalla or some other boat.

im not doing anything i just thought it would be badass!

There was a diesel in a Fox chassis before......

10 points to whoever knows what it was

i was honestly thinking of swaping out a Jetta TDI front transaxel diesel into a 4cyl coupe. It would get about 40 mpg. But then I got lazy and havn't persued it since. its a great idea though

6.0s are the new ones, the old diesels which they stopped making in 2002?...were 7.3

Darkwriter77 · Sep 23, 2006

Ooh! Ooh! I know! I know! *waves hand excitedly*

The '84-'85 Lincoln Mark VII came with a diesel option. If you find one nowadays, they're considered, like, gold for some reason. Not that they were fast, powerful, and/or economical in any way at all, but just because they're so extremely rare.

So ... do I get a cookie?

Mustang5L5 · Sep 23, 2006

Nah i can't afford cookies. You get a stamp

Damn tony quit hotrodding that damn thing, when I drive my neighbors truck I get 19 in the city.

edit:7.3L turbo diesel 250 BTW

mustangjoe87 · Sep 24, 2006

I wanted to do that a few years ago, it would be fun but costly.

Tonys96Cobra · Sep 24, 2006

Well mines got a 6.5" lift and 37's so that doesnt really help the aerodynamics
