How much power (hp/torque) to wheel stand a SN95era Mustang? An inch or so off the ground is all I am looking for here?

The T5 gearing is awful in my SN95 5.0. 4th and 5th gear are way too close, it feels like it should have a 6th gear.

The old V6 Mustangs used to be complete trash. The new V6 Mustang is basically an American Nissan Z and there's noting wrong with that, but the V8 MUSCLECAR sigma remains.

A new V6 Mustang would walk my SN95 5.0, but at least I GOT A V8.

I can't find a reliable answer for this one.

The Coyote family of engines is less wide than the Modular but the engine mounts are interchangeable somehow, or are close?

If the mounts on the block are the same I am going to be very pleased.

Get the June issue of Hot Rod. There's a big section on Coyote engine swaps that has info on the other mod motors and stuff too. I think it said the mounts are the same.

Ordered! $8.99 for the issue shipped to the shop. Not bad.

Other option is a 351w or a 351c.

I am swapping out the 302 in my STANG to a 351w. 351w is the way to go, hands down.

I love how this is going from a "little more oomph" to a built 351w. Next stop is a turbocharged 460. It'll fit, too. :patriot:

If you are going to do a 302 you might as well do a 351w. That's my logic on the Windsor series, your mileage may vary.

It took me FOREVER to find a GT in manual and I paid $500 as a premium in the end to get one. The T5 sure is the grindiest transmission I've ever had, that's for sure.

I am getting a lot of varying information here.

Can you put the FWD DOHC Modular on a RWD transmission?

Q_res posted:

I'm not entirely sure what would be involved in that swap to be honest. But I don't see why it wouldn't be possible, it should just be a matter of how much work is involved. That said, I'd suggest looking for a Mark VIII like this one http://orlando.craigslist.org/cto/3739253586.html instead.

Yeah I've already looked in to those Mark VIIIs I just want to start thinking about odd-ball options that might roll in to the shop.

I thought about DDing a cheap Mark VIII for a while and pulling the engine later.

DEAR MUSTANG BROS: I want a 15:1 power steering rack for my '94 GT. Didn't the faster rack come as an option in Foxbodies? Can I use that or something?

Edit: I want fast steering in my SN95 but the power steering on this car is trash.

It's basically a cheap new 350Z if you can't afford the cash price to get one used.
