Default How hard would it be to put a 460 in a 1994 to 2004 V6 Mustang?

Hello everyone, the wife and I are looking to make a street/strip. Big Block 1994 to 2004 Mustang. I figured it would be cheeper to go with a V6 sense we wouldnt be using any of the V8 parts.

I want a low 11's or high 10's car on motor. And to be able to drive it to the local car show. I thought about a blower for a 4.6. But for the price of the blower. I can have one tricked out 460 making 500+hp.

Besides nothing turns heads faster than a high compression big block comming down the street.

So my question is, what would it take to stuff a 460 into a 1994 to 2004 mustang?

Your also going to need suspension to get all that power to the ground, can't over look that.

It's possible. Years ago when the sn's first came out I remember reading a article in a mustang type of magzine. Dont remember which but know it was done.

You can swap a 460 into a Smart Car if you have a deep enough wallet,, anything is possible. How much do U want to spend? Can you do some of the work yourself our do you need to hire a garage to do it all?

Here's a Stang getting an Aston Martin V12 coversion!
