several people have. i know of several on another forum. its not hard, its just not cost effective. a vortech = cheaper and a hell of a lot faster than dropping in a stock 3v.

my buddy is going to do everything for 500 so thats going to allow me to do longtubes and cams. Plus i can hopefully sell my stock motor,PP TB and plenum and pullies.

Heres my calculations.


05 GT motor $1,500
Logan Motorsports kit $350
Misc & VVT lockouts $600
Tune $300
Install $500
Clutch $400
hood $500
Cams $950



$5,100

My brain is in a pretzel.

itll be pretty cool cant wait to see it when its done. just remember for under 2500$ you can vortech your car and rape a stock/cammed 3v. at the end of the day, that 3v has the same RWHP limits as the 2v. same exact internals.

and make sure you use actual cam gears and not those little aluminum wedges to lock out the VVT. the wedges are crap and i forget their RWHP limit but just do it right with some adjustable gears.

do the 3v's have a 6 bolt cast or 8 bolt forged crank?

MU71L4710N

6 bolt....same internals as us.

Thats kinda gay lol (the internals part).

Good luck on the swap though if you do it! Sounds pretty darn cool/ unique.

ehh maybe. requires a huge cowl hood..my car would look stupid with one.

mustangmancp

Huge cowl?? How big? I think it would look good w/ like a 2.5in.
