lq4 mustang? I have a 6.0 out of a hummer im guessing its a lq4?
It was free so im considering putting it in a fox coupe.
I will probably start off by buying a ls swap roller with decent stuff. (full weight car)
This will be a low budget build!!
IM new to the ls engine so sorry for any stupid questions.
Im wanting it to Be extremely streetable and run low 7's on motor on pump gas and be capable of handleing a 150 shot.
what would have to be done to the engine to get this?
what size carb?
intake?
cam?
Heads?
Would it get good enough mpg to be really streetable?
Thanks for the help

Did I place this in the wrong place for build advice?
I'm new to the ls family but I would love to learn with some help.
I need to run low 6's on either a 150 shot or a 70mm turbo
Which would be better?
What Heads?
Cam?
Carb?

It seems to be in the right place to me but could try gen 3 internal.I understand your frustration, when I post I get few responses also. It is alot of mustang swaps on here if you search I guess you could mimick one of their combos. I will reread your post and search and see what I can come up with. Actually I would start off with the weight of car and figure out how much power you will need to be competitive. Also what is your budget?
