Has anyone ever heard of a diesel engine swap into a mustang or any other car for that matter? I am talking about a Powerstroke or soemthign, not the semi ones. Wouldnt it be sweet to see and hear that thing roaring downt eh block? a lot of potential are int hose engines.

5.0's sound better
And why do a hard engine swap. If you have that kinda money You would be better off modding the 4.6

As for why to do a swap? 450 RWHP and 1200 RWTQ
... plus a large shot of nitrous and propane injection and you'll be at 600 RWHP and WELL over 1200 ft/lbs of torque (they pegged the dyno)... Was on HorsepowerTV or something recentlyYou simply CAN'T beat the torque of a diesel engine.

And you think it will drop right into a stang, with no work on the suspension,coputer,tranny, brakes,etc. Oh and there will probably fitting issues too.
