Eventually I will swap gears in the reareand, is there anything special with the getting speedo gear swapped to make it read correctly with the digital dash? Ive only done it on 5spd cars buttstuffog dashes.
Currently is all stock with 113K. My goal is mostly driver with good performance, must have ALOT of torque and stock drivability.
I have most pieces for the HO upgrade, but E7 heads,
Do I 1. Use SO block and put on E7 heads (stock Mustang headers) Do I do some home porting on the heads? Will this benefit with the stock HO cam? Do I do any porting of the HO intakes? Again, will this benefit with the HO cam?
(I will be swapping to a 2.5" offroad H-pipe and some aftermarket lers also.)
Do I 2. Buy a used 5.0 HO motor (notched forged pistons) and upgrade the heads to GT40/GT40P along with Cobra/Explorer intakes?
Should I spend money on shorty headers, or use the stock Mustang?
I guess it comes down to......what is the most torque/dollar way to go? I plan on keeping this car for a long time and dont antite forced induction any time soon. LOL, but I would like to do it right the first time.
I plan on eventually going to 3.27 or 3.45 gears in the 7.5 rear.
I know this thread is long, I just need some advise from you guys who have done this before with these cars. Thank you
