a 4.2 is possible if he has a 5spd. MM&FF tested a 5spd stock 99 when they first came out and with practice they got it to14.97.
a 4.2 can do it but even at low 15's it alot better than 17+sec times.
i agree with lilroush though the supercoupe swap is the best but if he can't find one the 4.2 is next in line

Hes not gonna run high 14s from JUST a split port swap. Low 15ish ...

this is what he asked
what is the easiest and cheapest swap for a 95 v6.......
not what's a swap for mondo power.
even at that swapping in a 4.2 makes the 95 far more reliable because you no longer have to worry about the headgaskets popping and it will take it from a 17sec car to a high 14 sec car. that's pretty substantial for only $1000 or less
what engine are you getting for $3000 right out of the box with all kinds of power???

If he wants something with power right out of the box, you're not gonna get anything for under $3000. Even a 4.6 V8. I don't see the point in swapping a whole motor for 40 hp if he goes with a split port. I'm just saying if I were gonna go to the trouble of an engine swap, I'd go with something making crazy power right out of the box, which you can't get for $3000.

????????????????????????????????????
for god's sake he can have a 4.2L low mileage V6 for $1000 and that would include all the parts needed to do the 4.2L splitport swap
MPS has 99+ 3.8's for $600 for god's sake. what planet are you from

if you can't find a supercoupe engine look for a 97+ 4.2L F-150 engine. you will need a 99+ mustang upper intake along with the 4.2L flywheel and balancer and use an 01+ 3.8 oilpan. i can give you links for that also
