Because he can. SBC in mustangs are pretty common nowadays. Plus, true hot rodding is working with what you got to go faster.

I'd take a high reving 327 sbc over a 2v 4.6L anyday.

Wow, jesus christ guys!

Like above, people put chevy engines in mustangs all the time!

Looks like you'll have some fun if you get it done.

I think that HX35 might be a little small! How about two of them! (I used an HX40 on my low compression 2.0L...er 121 cu in engine...

It's going to cost you more than a grand to even get it in there and running. Especially turboed...

I'm kinda just using the hx35 because it was laying around off my Cummins truck. I have a 96 chev with a Cummins in it and my dad has super duty. So I figured could just use it I i figure something else out?
