Lets not let this sleeping giant wake. Take the advice of others who have 10x the experience you do.. You say you know boosted motors blah blah blah.. The truth is you dont. Im sure there is a lot more hidden expenses you not figuring in. And the motor was rebult but never ran i dunno if i trust that either. Who rebuilds a motor and then lets it sit for months? just my .02 * retires back to winter den*

one of my friends was building a race car at the time...i talked him out of using the 3.8 SC motor and using a 5.0 with heads/cam/intake....me and him built the motor in Feb and put it into the race car...it was driven around the block and then parked.....the motor runs flawlessly....

want to hear it run? you will have to wait till its in the mustang....only problem i for see us having in with he gauge cluster...although..water temp/ oil pressure/ and boost gauge will be mech. i not sure if the RPM gauge will work with the SC harness...may have to wire in a new tach..

we will have the motor in Friday....in about an hour after he gets home im going over there and were going to get the new clutch/flywheel/pressure plate on the SC motor and swap the motor mounts on.....on grab a few pictures...
