I found an explorer engine for about $400. i was thinking it would be worth it for the heads and upper and lower intake. Just wondering if you guys think it will fit in the trunk of my stang, unfortunately i don't have access to a truck at the moment.

i would strongly suggest not trying that. my friend sat a 4banger in his hatch and went forward, busted is back glass out. not to worry tho guys, that car was on the way to the junkyard. it was a 4banger itself anyway it was time for it to be put to rest. RIP 4banger stang.

oh wow, that really sux, i did not think it could be that bad...., guess i will have to find another way... Do you think 400 for an explorer engine is a good deal?

motorman524

what mialage is on it and what year? it sounds good to me.

dj1203

80,000 and its a 98

motorman524

those are gt40p heads. 80000 is pretty good. id say its a good deal but gt40p's require different headers.

dj1203

wait so its the earlier ones that don't need headers?

motorman524

the sparkplugs get in the way on the gt40p's, the gt40's sparkplugs don't

motorman524

so yes the pre 971/2 dont require special headers.
