well I have the money but not as much as you guys think. so I am not rich if thats what you mean. I am inrolled in R-O-P for auto paint and tech. and my tech teacher said that he will help me do the swap after school hours with two other top students. so I have all the tools and help availible so all I need is parts. so that cuts the cost down alot. I am planning on spending 1000 for A donor car just for the rear end and front suspension(I know I might be able to buy the parts cheaper seperate but this way I know I have everything. then I am planning on spending another 2 grand for the motor. and my tech teacher said he would be able to get me A 5speed trans at no cost. and I just got A job(finally) and I have about 7 months to save up. pluss I got another car I can sell so I should have more then anough if I save 3/4 of my checks for 7months. and thats just for starters. once I got the 302 in there and am getting used to the power I can worry about saving for the other mods. probly strocking the engine cuz if I put on A superchrager then every one will know what I got and thats not good. especially with the cops. yung teenager driving A mustang is anuf for me. I dont need every one to know what I got.

ok well I am abviously going to have to think about the gears more. but you guys have talked me out of 4.10's so eather 3.55's cuz my brother inlaw has those and he gets decent MPG. but I might step it up anotch and get 3.73.

well thakns again guys. you have helped more then I can explain.

thanks
ford kid
