Default Figured it's about time.

Hey everyone. I've been a member on the Forum for a little while now, but never got around tointroducing myself. I figure it's about time. I picked up a '95 v6 3.8 last fall, and I have yet to drive it. A guy at work had it and the block was milled wrong, kept cracking the heads. He bought another Mustang and was just going to scrap the '95. I couldn't believe it, as the car looks like it's straight off the dealer's lot, so I paid him the $500 he would have gotten for it and now I'm putting in a new engine in my spare time. The old one's out and I'm currently hooking up the new one. By the end of the month I should have it on the road. Any mods I do are going to be geared more towards getting every last bit of fuel ecomony out of it. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

Sounds like a project, and a great deal once you get it all running.
