Do you plan to modify for performance?

    I've had a TGP a year now. Definitely want to a larger turbo than the old T25. Would maybe consider internal engine work, but I don't think the gen 2 motor is probably the best candidate for that, even if there's even anything offered or swappable.

    Going to LX9 swap and F23 swap a 2000 malibu ls. Hopefully by spring I will have acquired all the parts to get it started.

    Hoping on transmission work this fall/winter. Also maybe some port work on the 3100 heads and toss a turbo specific cam in.

    im not certain how your state works, I do know here I can drop the car insurance down to a storage policy. It can cover things such as; fire, theft, damages (break in & glass) / flood, & have replacement or stated value return. All in which will keep the registration valid/renewable preventing lapse.
    It is far cheaper than your typical policies. Just I know here its inflated more so than other areas due to being no fault.

    So it will be spring before it all goes down anyway
    Just don't get rid of those castings and patterns for the mount etc

    Haha, wait till I put another one on here, need one more for "proof of concept" or something like that.

    Anyway, the mods, probably all of the above, keep chipping away.

    I am getting a cam but since I sold the SC
    I don't know if I am going to get a MP90 from greg or go hi compression
    Depends on back pay and how long it takes
    And have 4t65e-hd that needs a rebuild too

    I think except for tuning, I'm pretty much done.

    I said cold air intake because there was no option for snorkel. Right now I picked up a second trooper that has no rust problems. So I plan to get a bunch of work done to it and then put the goodies like my lockers and drive train into it. During that time the snorkel and cat back will be done.

    It'd be pretty easy to source a 3.42 rear end but I'm torn between 3.23 and 3.42 if I went that route. I could always use the 3.23 disc LSD rear end from my Firebird as well.

    Well......thinking that is a better idea. That hollow cam scares the piss out of me.

    I am definitely saying no, and sadly saying that the Mustang will most likely be getting sold soon. Too many bills starting to pile up and not enough income coming in. And then of course, there is having 2 growing girls that are involved in several activities each. Hopefully some day in the future I'll be able to mod another 60V6 (Beretta revival?). I just can't see holding on to the Mustang much longer, considering its already sat stagnant for almost 5 years.

    Anyone interested?

    Compare the MPG of cars and trucks side-by-side. Compare the gas mileage and greenhouse gas emissions of new and used cars and trucks
