I have a 91 GT Mustang. I am looking to make it quick. Would it be easier to buy a crate motor or to just build one. I dont have too much money though. Also what kind of wires and plugs r u guys going with</P>


</P>

 

id use nkg plugs and plug wire...msd's, magnacores those are pretty nice. Motor wise, id go w/ a 351w seriously. Forget the 5.0 crap. Get one from some place that builds them. I know you can get a full turn key one for 5g's that has like 500hp and 500tq <IMG src=smileys/smiley14.gif border="0"></P>

 

I think I read that Steeda came out with some 10.4mm plug wires that have the lowest ohmage ratings. Cant rememver if it was them though.</P>

 

It would be easier to buy a crate motor, but it would be cheaper to build one yourself <U>I F</U> you know what you're doing.</P>


Usually crate engines have already been tested (the combination of components I mean....to work well with each other) -- If you were to build one, you will either have to imitate a known working one (component-wise for synchronization) or test (trial and error) till you get a good combo.</P>


Sometimes paying to let the pros do it pays off in no headaches, but sometimes the challenge and accomplishment of doing it oneself is worth and lifetime memory/satisfaction.</P>


So think about it, do research and then decide what you think will be best for you.</P>

 

351 windsor... check it out

 

/cough just got my hands on a 351m shortblock...WOOHOO free too<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">

 

hoW ON EARTH DID YOU GET IT FREE.

 

It fell off a truck.

 

If it is a 351M, you might as well toss it in the garbage. 351 Windsor is what you want. 351M and 400 motors are boat anchors. And bad ones at that.

 

Not trying to nag or anything but did it get hurt badly falling off the truck? How much can be used/came whith it when you got it.</P>
