5.0 or 4.6 into a 3.8
Hey , I want to know what would fit into a 95 mustang 3.8 ? Would a 4.6 or a 94-95 5.0 fit in there ? Please let me know. Thank You

Im not to sure if the 4.6 will fit but if you find out it does then I would definetly get the 4.6 over the 5.0, unless you can find an all out built 5.0.

go with a blower or turbo. swapping out the engine is expensive. it will probably cost more to swap it out than a poweradder

94. 94 and 95 302s are the only engine that will truely bolt into your engine and be plug and play.

Just drop a 5.4 into it and have 350 torque at the rear wheels. (stock)

Screw it, just throw a super charged lighning engine in and get a four inch cowl induction hood. Will that work?
