    My motor is on the way thanks to Blue Oval Industries. But there is more to it then just the motor. You need the control pak, mass air and alternator set up. We are having Jones Racing Product do a custom drive kit to include the power steering and AC as well as the alternator set up.

    Price

    1986 Mustang GT was $11.1k
    To adjust for inflation, multiply by 2.05
    So that will be almost $23k

    Now compensate for increased amenities, peformance and quality improvements, maybe airbags, today's Mustang is a better value then ever!

    I'm a bit of a drive but I got a coyote 5.0...... I'd be happy to ditch the payment and I'm sure we could working something out..... :D

    But you think you can bring yourself to hit something so damn sexy.........

    The only Capris that had 5.0 rollers were 85 and 86.

    The one you got has the SROD 4-Speed and the 175 HP 240 LB/FT 5.0 motor. Still a good motor :)

    where would I find physical dimensions for engines, specificly the 3.7L Ti-VCT V-6 Engine from the 2011 mustang to see if it can be placed in a maverick without a strut tower shaved.

    I am sure you can find the dimensions out there. It is a 60 degree V-6 so side to side should not be a problem. As for height I don't know.
