4v motor, you've already got the fun stuff, you can pick up a Mach1 motor for <$6k brand new.
shop around a junkyard, and you might find a Cobra motor in decent condition.

RE: RIP stock motor. What now?
I would have to get a different supercharger bracket and my headers wouldn't work. I've thought about a 4v swap but I've gone too far with the 2v now. I like telling people they just got beat by a 2v anyway. If you have a 4v they expect it to go fast.

dude, it's a 4v...go for it. Next time I re-up, my poor little GT is getting a 4v and T-56. if I can swing it, it'll also get the KB 2.1
if someone knows enough to understand what you mean by 2v, then that person will definately respect that you've got a 4v. they should expect it to go fast, you're packing boost

RE: RIP stock motor. What now?
Don't forget to check out Sean Hyland Motorsports :
http://www.seanhylandmotorsports.com/
For whatever reason they aren't mentioned much on this forum but they are definately leaders in the Modular Motor arena.
How much horsepower are you shooting for? That will determine alot of what you are going to spend..
Up to 650HP Parts :
http://www.seanhylandmotorsport.com/...products_id=49
Shortblock :
http://www.seanhylandmotorsport.com/...rtblocks.shtml
Longblock:
http://www.seanhylandmotorsport.com/...ngblocks.shtml
The thing with the longblock is that since you have PI heads, it would be better to go with upgraded heads and cam's, especially with the blower. But you are talking 10G's at that point so be prepared.

*New Forged Manley pistons 3.552 Bore size (High or low compression)
*Speed Pro file fit rings (precision file fit to your application, nitrous, blower, turbo or N/A)

400900
$2799
From what I read they have over 100 in play on boost cars with 0 returns.
But I will let you know I am very green.
My last stang was a 67. That I put a short block in back in 1981
