Hey everyone I am new here and am about to purchase my first mustang, it is an 87 notch that has a turbo charged 2.3. My goal over the winter is to build a stout 306 or a 331 and put it into the car. This is my question do you all think that it would be smart to keep the turbo and add it to the motor or should I go all motor? I know that opinions vary on forced induction but I have never had a turbo car and was just thinking it may be fun. The turbo in the car by the way ita T3 with all the intercooler and everything else there. I will through up some pics when I get the car. Buy the way I am going to get this thing for the amazing price of $900.00 off of craigslist. That is when this guy contacts me.
Thanks Shawn

A turbo 4cyl notch is definately different! I would keep it like that. If you want to put a v8 in, just find a roller instead of a car that already runs

Never really thought of that, In my travels of craigslist I did find another 89 notch local that is like $1200 so maybe I will pick up both and have two mustangs. You really know how to put the pressure on a guy to fill up his garage.
Thanks Shawn

yeah if u can afford it id deff hit up both cars.

im currently looking for a 4cyl fox that needs some work so i can use that as my winter beater/dd.
then after i drop the 331 in my 95 i want to transplant the 302 to the fox.

but thats just my plan.

ctgreddy look at craigslist that is where i have had the best luck finding the notchbacks in my area. i found a couple of nice 4 bangers for really good prices.
