Rebuild or get a new longblock

[016erstang]

I got a 01 with about 115,000 on it, I plan on going N/A on the engine but don't know which would be better I was looking at rpm-mustang and saw longblocks from 4800-5600 and that with port and polish everything as well, or would if be better to stick with my engine and just get the machine work on it.

You mean rpm outlet? They don't carry longblocks, but whoever that is, $5600 for a P+P overhauled longblock doesn't sound like a good deal. Supersixmotorsports has P+P head and intake sets along with a cam for $1900 and up, and if your engine is getting tired, you should be able to have a local machine shop freshen it up for a lot less than $5k. Making it a 4.2 stroker along with the P+P heads should make plenty of power with stock internals and keeping it N/A.

I'm thinking about the SuperSix setup myself.... http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/pdf/SSM2007catrev3PowerPaks.pdf

That what I would like to do I was thinking of going with the 4.3 Stroker kit and get the stage 3 power pack. My goals are to see how far I can get the car while still be able to be street drivin I want to show people that you can take a V6 and still have some fun with it alot of people here either have a GT or imports for now with the 4.10 I get a quick jump off but that's only good for the acceleration want to get her higher in the HP range as well, also plan on putting a procharger on her after the rebuild.
