5.0[&:]why would you consider a straight 6?

Ummm, I guess I'm confused.. Seriously, why would you even consider a straight 6 over a V-8 5.0? I don't even see how this is a question.

I guess I would pick the straight six- If I happened to need a new engine for my minivan lol!!

Aren't Concorde's tranverse mounted FWDs? How ya gonna make either one work?

my mom's intrepid is a v6 mounted regularly, but it's FWD

Ok does the concord have anything to do with this story? It makes the story confusing but if your building the mustang Id go with the 5.0 because it fits? lol and the straight 6 is for a pickup or full size bronco not a mustang

b/c the straight 6's will last forever and have more torque than our beloved 5.0's. that being said they have no power, the 5.0 all the way
