I also do not see why a LSx would not propel a lighter Mustang to those times when they are starting to do it with aheavy as hell F-body. I mean really it only took BMR 6 months to put the 04 GTO steet car in the nines and it is WAY heavier then a gutted out mustang.
What is the problem with dumping a much cheaper(per HP for sure) LSx into a 80s Four cylinder car? Hell we have had four of them GIVEN to us in the last year! Strip it, weld in a cage and buy and E-bay engine to start! $500 N2o kit and $250 used cam with $300 valve spring kit.
I really do not see what the problem is. They have been doing it on different cars since they start making them. Caddy engines , Hemi engines BBC engines Ford 400 engines you name it if it is cheap and light some one will put it together
Just think how fast your car would be with a turbo and a LS2

The LSx is a great engine, but its just not the end all be all. And as far as putting a turbo LSX into my car all I would do is save a little weight on the front end. The limits of a stock block LSX are about the same as my forged piston 302 due to its Hyperuetectic pistons and powdered metal rods. And my forged piston 302 was all of $300. Thats bang for the buck.

But I digress. And me calling the car, not the person retarded was still just my opinion. If I was closed minded I would vow to own only one brand of vehicle, my Astro van says Im not, so there.
And on that subject, even picking the fastest baddest 4.6 Ford motor wouldn't interest me in an F-Body since the LSx motors are significantly larger (cubic inch-wise) and therefore will make much more power and torque, mod for mod, then the smaller motor regardless of the brand.

I just cant believe how you guys can toss out the basic laws of physics...
You know what I was doing in 1992? Beating the **** out of new mustangs with a god damn four cylinder Shelby Charger! Mod's? A SINGLE Across the Dodge parts counter piece. A Shelby ECM.... 18PSI.... 240+HP and only 2,100lbs with me in it.
My point? At least I can hear the reasoning

To quote what a wise man once said on here....HOW LONG CAN THIS GO ON?
Now for my input - I thought GM was toying with the idea of bringing back the Stingray for the intro of the s/c'd LS7. And I can't say I see much difference between an LS1 or 2 with FI. The 2 would have a few more lbs of tq, but that's about it.

\Stage 2 ECU 14psi
2 1/2 inch exhaust
Bigger Fuel pump and the one size up injectors
Car Hauled for what it was... im guessing just as fast if not faster than any of the mustangs ive owned.

But anyway if anyone in here is boost friendly its me (obviously). I dont care what it is, if its boosted its cool.
So, are we just gonna go for the record of longest thread or what? What is the longest thread for the NW section anyway?

2.2L Turbo I4 Non-intercooled
They made the GLH-S models of the chargers in 1987 only like 1000. All black 2.2L Turbo 2 Intercooled(forged internals)
they made a GLH-S Omni in 1986 I think only 500....
It couldve been the other way around 1000 omni's and 500 chargers... i cant remember...

I remember back in the early 90s when these two Fairmonts were in a couple of magazines. One was a fastback with a Boss 429 and the other was a sedan with a Cammer. My first car was a fairmont (it was cheap) and even then I thought, what a waste. Why didnt they go find an old fastback Mustang or torino or something.

My first car was a 71 Mustang Grande' with a 351C
Moms ride at that time was a 70 Merc Marauder with the 429, I would switch cars with mom on occasion
