Thumbs up FOSTANG

i dont know what all the b/s is around here! does it actually make a difference if he even put a hamster and a wheel under the hood? WTF? you guys i dont understand. its not like he is backstabbing you personally, or calling one of your family members names! why so mad? i dont understand! you should encourge people to try something different and with some ingenuity(dont know if i spelled that right)for a change. does any one have any FACTS why a LS1 motor is junk? besides your preference in liking the three-oh-two, what is so bad about this motor? they a pretty damn durable, or they wouldnt have used them in police cars over the years they had them in it. personally the FACT is they are great motors! just like the 5oh motors. you can run over 200,000 miles on a stock block! i dont see any FACTS on why it is a "bad" or a "junk" for a motor. all i see is opinions, which by the way i think is getting confused for facts. i think FOSTANG has the courage and the guts to try something new and different. anyone just about in this forum can bolt a windsor block into a Stang! of course, they are supposed to! to me its an art when someone changes the "rules" and makes it equal, if not better. its like being your own engineer. make something fit and work when it wasnt designed to. thats called inginuity(i dont know if i spelled that one correctly, again!) some say put a Cobra Mod motor in it. definetly kewl. but you know how much a used Cobra Mod motor goes for? i seen as little as $2500 all the way up to $4000! so will a t-5 out of a 5.0 bolt up to a mod motor? i dont know if the pattern is the same. then after you get the Cobra motor, try finding a harness! for a $1000 he got a deal! yes it is very kewl to see a mod motor in a fox body, but someone wants to try something different and use his head to try to make it work, then im all for it. come on guys, he never said the Chevy motor was better than the Ford, just asked opinions on how to go about it. remember, their is more than one manufacturor than just Ford.
FOSTANG, if i lived closer to you, i would give you a hand on your project. hey, if it makes your heart beat faster and your adreniline flow, then i think he accomplished something, satisfaction and a goal. SRV1......
