Hello everyone! I've been a frequent visitor to the forums and I recently decided to purchase a 4.6L Mustang. While on ebay the other day I came across a mustang that appears to be in beautiful condition with a supercharger (can't maske out the brand). Anyway my concern is that it has very high millage and I am curious about the condition of the motor. The seller stated that it runs perfect and the interior and the exterior of the car are in great condition. I do not doubt his claim but I am just curious about the experts (forum members) opinions about this deal. What are the things that I need to have checked out and what aftermarket parts does everyone see? Thank you all very much for your help!!!!!! Heres the link to the auction>>> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-Fo...QQcmdZViewItem

I probably would have bought it and painted her black

Were you the high bidder? All I see is the blower, and I'm guessing exhaust work has been done, as it can't pass the smog test. Oh there was an aftermarket ignition box as well.

Looks like a Vortech to me... I am very very iffy about high milage souped up mustangs personally... God only knows what the seller did to that car. I just know that if mine was s/c for a lil while - i'd sell it to someone i dont know if you catch my drift... It's a decent price but with 150k miles on a s/c motor - i just dont know, i'd be careful of that one. and that would definatly be at a mustang shop where I knew the people before I bought it.

You can find cherry 01' Cobras for just over 10k if that's you're market... Besides, I have loved building my car from stock. It's more fun that way . Again though, personally I am very inquisitive about used sports cars in any reason, not to mention this one is 150k on the odometer w/a s/c

Looks like you got her for a good price. It does have a lot of miles, but it's hard to tell if that's the original engine. I'm guessing Western Motorsport would have some info on the car.

That's a centrifugal S/C.. KB are all roots, aren't they?

IWinULose

Yes. That's a Vortech.

your right bro I was kidding but it is hard to tell wtf it is and the dealer is vague

yeah... because they don't know, haha... If I were buying that car, i'd have someone that I knew, that works on Mustangs for a living look at that car before i drove it home, haha - not to mention the home address of the person at the dealer that sold me it, hahaah.
