well im getting another stang and im not gonna spend alot. my ? is what will be less work, buy a pos 5.0 and redo the interior and do body work and paint, or i can buy a very clean 4cyl notchback for cheap and put a 5.0 in it? i already have a 5.0 parts car from a friend i could buy for the swap. any sugesstions will help a lot! thanks i n advanced

I just bought a real nice 87 5.0 to put a 347 into, cost me 1800 bucks. A friend of mine just bought a 90 4 cylinder that he has a 460 already built for, cost him 700 bucks. I don't know which way is going to be cheaper, both of us need new transmission and rearends etc to do what we want at the strip. I think it's a toss up.

do the 4 cyl's have a t5 tranny?

fastang5.0

this is out of the topic but.. do the 4 cylinder sound like a riceburner?? and do they make aftermarket for it?

91lxstang

yea they have a t5 but its not as strong as the 5.0 t5 and it has a diff input shaft

and they only sound like a riceburner if u put riceburner exhaust on it....

Put a nice set of flowmasters and an Xpipe on a 4cyl. It'll be an adventure!
