Default Re: what do y'all think

Buy a car with the 5.0 already in it. The 5.0 car was built for the 5.0, a 4 cyl car needs not only the engine swap, but you have to consider the suspension, brakes, wiring, etc. You could easily spend more on the 4 cyl car before its done than you would buying one with a 5.0 in it. Not only that, you can buy the 5.o ready to drive, Engine swaps don't always happen in a weekend, and you are left walking or begging rides until your car is done. Then there are the follow up problems that go with any time you remove an engine and put it back in. Buy a 5.0 complete!
