: Mark,The engine I'd like to see in a Maverick or Pinto is the 3.8 supercharged engine and AOD from a T-bird, That's the one I'd like to see, That would be a screamer, aftercooler and everything would be a nice compack little kick ass take names vehile, anyone out there trying this one, give me a yell.
I have nothing against the big blocks, I have a 65 longbed with a 460 and am looking at building another 65 shortbed fleetside with the 428 in my garage. I just like the different ways to make power and I would never run a big block in a small car I wanted to drive every day, to much of a handeling compromise in my mind. I like the turbo 4 even better in a pinto but a maverick would be cool to. All I was trying to say is that there is a million ways to make power and this is just one possible way of doing it. Plenty of people do run T3/T4 hybrids but not in mavericks.
