Crazy Idea

[Mr 5 0]

This works and has been done many times before.

The problem is the extra weight of the Crown Victoria kills the power. You'll go from a low 14-second Mustang to a very high 15-second Crown Vic. No sleeper there.

Along with the 5.0, you need a 4.10 rear, worked AOD and usually a power adder, all of which would give you a high-13-second Crown Vic.

For the same money, you could have a low 12-second Mustang.

If you just want a better-than-average Crown Vic then a H.O. 5.0 is cool, but don't expect much more than passable performance.
