Really? thats it. That's not a lot of power concidering they are pretty big engines. I thought the Cobra had over 360 horses. is there any other engines in mustangs that are more powerful that i could swap in?

Wasnt the 94-98 bodies the same?So my question is why cant he throw a 5.0 in anyone of those?The only thing that changed was the motors!What he may have to change motor mounts?He was goingto do that anyway.

Explain if someone could why he cant puth the 5.0 in a body style that came with the 5.0?

The supercharged 2003 Cobra engines do.

I don't see why 100th is saying you need to put in a 5.0 or a 4.6 for certain years.

He can put in the 5.0 engine. Friend put in a 5.0 into his 94. It should fit right in except for he had to sand some of the fender down. Can't remember why. If i was p stang i would either put the 5.0 engine or put in the 4.6 4 v engine from the cobras.

I am not sure about the 2000 coupe having a v8. I will do some research and tell you later

you could put a 5.0 in a 4.6 year, but youde have to get a new tranny. the t45 will only work with 4.6s...as the t5s will only fit 5.0s...it also would be alot harder to do, ie wiring harness crap...when putting in a v8 motor in a v6 car from the same year, its just plug and play.

This is damn near the dumbest question to ask when you don't even know what V8 was made in the year your stang is.
