Default noob here and i was wondering...

hi i just got a 1997 stang from my dad that is in pretty good condition. i wanted to upgrade the engine because it would be pimp! i was wondering if anyone could guide me in the right direction on what engine fit and things like.

First two things that you should do is a PI swap and exhaust work. These are the two most restrictive thing on that stang, and it would be good for about 50 HP maybe a little more if you was to go with an offroad X pipe.

What are you goals/budget?

I think coil-overs, gears, and a nice exhaust would help to make your car "pimp".
