I have a 86 4cyl that's on it's last leg and found a fully running 97 v6 (minus the front end) for cheap. How hard would it be to swap engines. The seats and 5lug stuff alone it worth more the the price of the car, so I figured why not swap engines and jump from 88hp (actually far from it) to...

Well the '01 I was looking at is gone now so I'll have to keep on looking but thanks for all the help.

I wish I could keep the '05 but due to my recent situation (new baby and a pay cut) I can't afford it. I need to cut my payments in half or all together. Also in my area and probably every area, there are alot of small dealerships that won't deal with me cause of the negative equity and they...

I'm currently in a 2005 V-6, 5-spd and I'm looking at the 99-04's 5-spd. Besides the paper data, how do they compare? Driving, handling, breaking and just general SOTP feel. The 05 is my third stang previously having a 86GT auto and 97GT 5-spd. I've done searchs but didn't come up with...

Thanks everyone for the help but I learned alot but I was mainly concerned with the top not having any vert experience. I don't know about checking the latches, seals, motors, etc. Please keep the info coming.

I'll be looking at a 86gt vert manual in the next few days but I have no idea what to check for as far as the top is concerned. I've had an 86gt hatch (auto), 97gt coupe (manual) and now a 05 V-6 manual (which feels as strong if not stronger than the other two). BTW, it's listed as stock...

Yes I want to mount them behind the bumper. I think I understand what you're saying but if you can take a pic that will help a million, hopefully I'll be able to knock it out this weekend. Thanks:nice:

Here are 2 more pics.

Bigcat, i thought this post was dead so I haven't been keeping up. I got some pics of the lights, I'm just having trouble resizing them. They are APC Road Vision driving lights 3"x5" (505010c). They are sold at Advance Auto, Autozone and I think Wal-Mart. Thanks for the help.

I found a pic of where I want the fogs but I still need help trying to mount them.

Our old GT's

With a fully hooked up system and bottle closed, how long can a full nitrous bottle be stored in your trunk? The car is almost 2yrs old and has just over 8,000 miles and is a daily driver. I may not use it for brief periods due to traveling from time to time (military). Thanks

For those who have put fogs in the lower grille, where and how did you mount them? I had a set of square lights to mount behind the lower grille but I couldn't find a way to mount them so I took them back. Several months later, now I want to try it again. Thanks

Are all 4.0 heads the same and interchangable? Are there any documented gains from port and polished 4.0 heads?

Thanks for the info. I'll just get the tuner and save myself some trouble.

Thanks for the reply. But could you explain a little better the reasons why a drop-in filter would work and basiclly taking the stock air box off and using a cone wouldn't. And the CAI I have is speed density system (from my old '86 GT) that I was going to modify and try to save a buck or two...

I've read that you have to reflash if you get a CAI but not if you put a drop-in filter. Is this correct? Is the reason you have to reflash due to a new MAF? Could you use the stock MAF with a cone filter and different intake tubing instead of the stock air box and not need a reflash? Would...

From what I saw about GT dyno results and it perhaps being underrated, it makes me wonder if the V6 could yield similar results. And I really want a NEW stang but can't really afford a GT any time soon and I still have my 86GT.

Thanks, I was just wondering.
