Ok, I know for a fact that mustang engines are built that can get up too V-8 7.5 L, but I have never actually seen or heard of it being done before. Im trying too figure out what years(83-85) one could swap the 5.0 in a GT mustang for any engine higher than 5.8 L. If you know of any website containing info on this, plz post it. And if you an answer too this, plz post the year, body style, and maximum engine capacity. Thanx.

At this site we go by CI (cubic inches, cubes, etc.) not by litre or cc's... you can put 351's (CI) and 389's into 5.0's, im sure someone will go into more detail on the subject

That's the way ANY REAL engine is measured.

Which is why I measure my saturn in 1.9L, not 116 cid.

Here's the thing dude: Those 7.5L motors I garantee didn't start off as little 5.0's. Probably more like 426 or 427's.
