Iv got a sohc stock 96' GT engine that I want to replace with a more soup'd up motor (the car has like 120k on it and has blown head gasgets and so on) where could i get a good crate engine with possibly a warrenty that would coem with better heads and so on. ( I would get the heads upgraded but ppl dont like working on those engines and then im afraid the bottom end would go out) So please help me find a good deal on a fittable crate engine that would be easy to install (will i need to switch the cpus and stuff?) plz help, thanks, -Kev

Well... what does upgraded mean? VT sells great stuff (highly recommended), but I picked up a brand new factory Ford '02 2V engine (w/ all accessories)from the Corral e-store for $3300 shipped to my door. Either will be a noticeable improvement from a tired '96 2V. Warranties will be tough to come by. You're looking in the performance/racing aftermarket, where warranties typically don't exist or mean much.

Almost enough said. Do some research and you'll find that other people's experiences with KK weren't so great. ModDepot thread re: KarKraft
