Actually if he's willing to put a little work into it he can make the 4.6 a pretty decent motor. I still have to find out what happened to mine as far as this flood but if it did flood I'd have an NPI motor for sale LS motored cars are gay, plus a lot spendier than a rustang.

The stock engines (Except for 03/04 cobras) can only handle 400RWHP safely before you have to worry about the toothpick rods and wet paper pistons starting to blow. If you get forged internals you have a motor good to 800+ HP...WELL more than anyone would really need unless they're making a track car.

400 on a 2V if you have a perfect tune ~maybe~...

There are many guys running mid 400's for decent amounts of time that have yet to blow their motors...it all depends on the tune.

I personally am not a fan of the mod motors either but depending on what his intentions are to do with the car it can be a decent platform to go off of.

I myself like the mod motor

[ruthless351]

LOL you can keep it kelly!

[ruthless351]

What do want to do with it JN? Daily driver?

[JN210]

Super charge maybe, turbo, most power I think id ever make out of it would be 400hp, then maybe later on closer to 500hp. I want a DD (although ive already got one) but I want some power behind it....I dont want to have "just another mustang" ya know?

If 4-500 is your goal you probably don't want a mod (4.6L non 03/04 cobra) motor then unless you'd be willing to put the money into forging the internals.

so a SN95 5.0 is my best bet?...if im gonna get a mustang, it has to be the one with the balls.

It will more than likely be your best bet as far as responding to mods while still looking decent. I am not a fan of the older fox body mustangs 93 and older but they are easy as hell to mod and make quick.

Chris (CMK) has a sn95 with the 5.0 and I know he knows the cars like the back of his hand almost.

^^^FIXED^^

That is correct, 5.0L is easy to work on, and parts are dirt cheap, by far the better choice. Just look for rust

[JN210]

ok, now that ive got my mind made up....can anyone find me one? lol

[ruthless351]

Are you looking for a auto or 5spd?

There was a sn95 on bismanonline.com with a ls2 in it.:icon_salut:

I dont think this is the one you are speaking of Christian, maybe it is

Off of NA

But look at this thing.... one word... potential

I am abandoning this project, easy finish for someone.
It needs to be measures for a driveshaft and then order. An aluminum one is about $500 max.
The ECU and wiring harness need to be put in, simple plug and play with the power wires etc all labeled. I sent off the wiring harness to be modified for this application to the tune of $800.
Then the power wires for all the guages are all setup, all you will have to hook up is the wires that go to the sensors.
The rear pipe of the driver side header needs to be modified to clear the steering shaft, then obviously install the steering shaft.

I think that is really about it other than small odds and ends like radiator plumbing and a tranny cooler. Exhaust also needs to be put on, have headers, mufflers and xpipe.

Here are the mods.

AJE Tubular cross member, motor mounts, tubular a-arms, coilover setup, upper camber plates. $1300

LS6 and a 4l60e auto trans $4000

Autometer guages $900

Kooks Headers $750

Walbro 255 intank $110

2 Flowmaster 40 series mufflers and an xpipe $350

Steering rack offset bushings $50

Flaming river manual steering rack $310

Flaming River slim steering shaft (to clear headers) $420

Aftermarket throttle body (cant remember brand) $300

Probably forgetting alot of things

Anyway with the purchase of the car I have almost $11k into it as it sits.

Ill take $7500, cars with this setup are known to break 11's rock stock motor.

This was before the Flaming river rack was installed.

[z31]

I would love to Mod out a Mustang like that as soon as i win the lotto.:icon_cheers:

[JN210]

^^ya no shit.

holy....god I need to sell my car quick....I need a stang lol

[PSiedTSi]

Wow, $7500? That seems like a fun project. Did notice he has the 4L60E, though.
