I am thinking about buying a 4cyl mustang. How would swapping a 2.5 in place of the 2.3 affect performance? They are the same engine from what I can tell, only the 2.5 has a bigger stroke. Would this even be worth the time and effort to pick one out and bolt the other in? Any weak points in th 2.5 that I should know about?
