Why would you put a complete fucking turd motor from a 94 Cobra in that car? Go fellate a rusty fishhook.

And if you want one its big $$$, Relatively speaking. The mark VII had the HO motor the 86 up mustang did and some cougars and t birds as well. Beings the car is carbed buy a 351 from a mid 80's van or pickup, do a budget rebuild with a hot cam, intake and headers and you'll be making around 280 crank power. To get to the next level you need better heads, a used set of aluminum ones can be had for $500 to $700 and will put you around 320ish crank hp depending on the cam, intake, carb, and compression you go with. That said even with good aluminum heads you could build a nice 351 for around $1500. The carbed big block is a little pricier but with just a cam, intake, carb, and headers will make 350 to the wheels.

then he'd come on here either trying to whore out his camel or trying to figure out how to make it faster.

That of course wouldn't be until after he tried to talk someone into giving him a camel for half of book/scrap (for meat) value.
