i have a 1997 3.8L v6 mustang, 5 speed with the stock 2.93 gears. current mods are NGK iridum plugs with msd wires, in the next couple days will have bbk cold air intake, pacesetter exaust adapter with dual magnaflow exaust, accel super coil and bbk underdrive pulleys. My plans are to rebuild a t-5 world class tranny out of a 95' cobra and the rear end; then install them into my mustang. they'll be fully done with ford racing parts as well full front and rear suspension. i want to pull the motor and do a full rebuild also but with comp cams internals and cylinder heads from supersix motor sports, then pro charger supercharger with vibrant intercooler and chip it....how much power can i put into my engine before i have problems, ive been told roughly 400+hp due to the fact ther 3.8 has a 2 bolt main? what can i do, or what should i do...im hoping i am able to do what i have planned as ive been working on it for over a year.

im planning on replacing all internals with comp cams parts. and yes that would be the part. and also i am running full amsoil synthetics in my car with colt body kit and redoing the whole interior with full comp. stereo.
For exhaust just get muffler of ur choice and let a exhaust shop fab u a true dual kit. Have you looked into getting your internal parts from supersixmotorsports?
ive looked into the exaust from a few shops and they both wanted double if not more the cost then what i paid for the adapter kit and magnaflow dual exaust kit.........nope i don't have a link but when your on their site u can search for 4 cyl & 6 cyl parts and they list everything with some different stages...... yes ive desided to purchase the upper and lower intake with heads from super sixe motor sports its callled their super pak im pritty sure, im looking at the stage 2+ kit maybe the 3....but im still worried about having a 2bolt main.
yes thats true my bad the internals are from supersixmotor sports...all forged pistons, ring, connecting rods, crankshaft but all the valve train and etc. for internal wise are comp cams
