trans go shift kit w/manual valve bodies (clutchless manual)
high stall T/C

SFC and LCA along with some springs
http://autobadges.com/

find a motor out of a thunder bird supercoupe, with the supercharger, it will go in with minor mods, and will put you at 200 rwhp and 300 rwft/lbs

HCI from http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/ will net you around a 30 rwhp gain

4.2 stroker kit from http://www.moranav6racing.com/catego...?CategoryID=16

detroit true trac and gears http://www.drivetrainspecialists.com...-75/index.html

not sure if it will work on the stang but i know on my maro, (once i get the chance) you can wire up a switch to lock the torque convertor, and then what, all you use is second gear so just leave it in 2 or manually downshift into 1

Mustangman: please understand the question before throwing out info. We already established that a skift kit wont do in this case.

Nismo: Tightdogal is right, you will need to search around for that info because as far as I know no one has done that swap yet in this section. Be sure to update us is you find anything and if you have any other questions feel free to ask.

yeah? well good luck. you act as if you are a drifting guru (even though you crashed your old car but uhhh anyways) so you if you know what you're doing, then that's all that matters. it seems that the main you want is a tranny swap but unfortunately, you may be better off selling your car for a 99+manual v6. i think a 99 manual v6 shouldn't go for more than 6 grand right now....
