Default Engine swap?

Alright,

I got a new job. My income is going up significantly, and I want to drop a new motor in the car. Any suggestions? Its a 96 GT with about 110,000 on it.

EDIT: Before anyone asks, I already have a new rear end, as well as a TKO 600 for a tranny...

4v 4.6 is the only way to go!

I don't know, in another thread he was talking crap on the 4v so I don't see why he'd want one, so I guess he'll have to find something else[>:]

Its not that I was talking crap, I just cant justify spending the money on a new motor, and only getting 263 to the wheels. If im going to do it, Im going to go big, or just buy a new car. I dont want to part with my mustang, but its starting to **** me off that I have to dump a **** load of money into it just to make it hang.
