uhhhhhh it would cost more to fabricate something to put that BIG modular motor in that car than it would to just build up a 302 based stroker......There are SEVERAL people getting 500hp from 302 based motorsenyawix said:What is the biggest engine I can fit into a 5.0? mustang? Will the 6.8L v10 from a ford truck fit? I want 500hp+. I will NEVER get that from a modded 302.
:Word: The V-10 with a tuner and some eshaust work is a real strong motor, especially the 2005 with the 3v heads, they area bout 350 hp factory. But it wouldnt be cost effective to put one in a 5.0. Cool, yes, pennywise, no. Ford put a modified one in the Shelby Cobra car that they built, and it screams. IMO, the most cost effective way to build a reliable 500 hp Mustang is a boosted 351W.sbftech said:my big POS V10 in my dually pulls my big POS 38foot scarab boat like a walk in the park. The V10 is not geared towards this industry, but to say it's junk makes you look foolish. 500+ at the wheels on a stock block is a ticking time bomb, I dont care who has what, or how long they have had it. It will split sooner or later, Ill bet my house and all my toys on it. Been there broke that. N/A 302-306's take a nice amount of work and cash to make 500+ at the tire. Dont kid yourself. Too much magazine and internet racing

Oh now your comparing a gasser to a dieselSTANGateURlilSS said:before i had the the powerstoke.. i had a v10.. that thing was a pos.. would not tow the 40 foot box trailer i have even empty.. at 45000 miles had to replace the head gaskets.. and it was a pos.. the powerstoke is much better.. and as for a stoke block 302.. yeah 500 at the crank is even a ticking time bomb... he was asking about 500 out of a 302.. if it could be done.. and the answer is yes..

its got a long fuse90lxcoupe said:unless your getting the motor for dirt cheap its not worth it.
im assuming that you have a 302 in the car already, and if that's the case just get a good head/cam/intake combo and put a supercharger or turbo on it and have a nice day.
and as for ticking timebombs... my car made 480 to the wheels, and i still have a one piece block a year later.
