'98 Explorer motor in a '91 stang

stanger8172 · 04-09-2002, 08:08 AM

My g/f's cousin can get me a '98 Explorer motor with only 30k mi. on it for $800 bucks, plenum to pan, with throttle body.

How much horse/torque do these puppies have?

I am thinking that I would have to get full exhaust for it and he says all I would need to do to the motor is put a different cam in it. Anyone know what this motor would need to be around 320fwhp?

My combo makes 300 fwhp. I have mildly ported heads, 65mm t-body, and 19lb injectors.

The Explorer 302 came with the GT-40p heads, you will need to get headers designed for the p-heads. $800 is a good buy.
