Just wondering how much would an auto/performance shop charge to do an engine sway? I see all these cheap crate engines(308's pushing 400hp+ for $3k shipped)on ebay and my dad and I r thinking of getting a project car for next yr and if it has a lot of miles on the engine, doing a swap. probably getting a 5.0 or older mustang. Just want to know some estimates and see what it will run. And also if u can tell me how much hp each of the transmission could take(5spd,4spd,3spd all sticks) stock and is there a way to make them stronger w/o taking them out or putting in a new one?
Thanks In Advance

a engine swap isnt that bad as long as your going from 5.0-5.0-5.8(or a varient) i dont believe ford ever placed a tranny into a foxbody that i would recomend pushing over 300 ft/lbs on a daily basis, and no there is no way to strengthen it without taking the tranny out. As the saying goes, you got to pay to play.
