SPARTAN VI

Are there any plans for power adders or a swap? I'd really love to see a 4.6 or 5.0 in there.

Not currently. It's an idea I've toyed with a lot, but it's still an automatic which I'm not a fan of. After I'm done restoring it, depending on how much it's cost me at that point I may look into super charging it, or even swapping for a 4.6. The other option would be to sell it and use the money to buy a manual GT.

I guess on that note, I will just wait and see what happens.

I've been watching this off and on... great job, all the way around. You took on something not many would want to touch, after someone literally ruined the car - and you brought it back to life. That is the ultimate pleasure car, one you've done things to nobody else has... or in this case, would touch with a 10 foot pole! I think it is awesome!

Thanks a lot. What I want to see though, is more pics of that 06 in your avatar.

I suppose that could happen. I frequent the vintage Mustang forum for threads on older Mustang topics. I just like to see my "40 year apart" girls together.

I think it's really cool personally, seeing both of them together like that, old muscle, and new muscle kind of thing.

New issue arose, it rained pretty heavy yesterday, when I got into the car last night I looked over and noticed this. Bad news is, that's water leaking from the place the ECU is located.




I haven't actually checked yet but I'm about 99% certain this is the issue.

I would suggest, show in the diagram, to check the cabin filter and drain hole.

What drain hole?
