Well I have a 68 Mustang hence my username but that’s not the one I’m referring to... I also have a 1974 Ford Capri that my dad owned since new... its ultra rare here but unfortunately came out in an era of pollution control gimmicks and features a 2.8 V6 that puts out like 109hp or something dreadful like that... on the forums most owners are bigtime boomers and go the 5.0 route, but in my opinion that just turns it into another Mustang with a big lump in the front... so I thought something light and high revving and NA was more appropriate to the spirit of the car given its European heritage, rear wheel drive and only weighing about 2,200lbs...

I have seen some guys do the 2.3 turbo and at least one is working on the EcoBoost motor tho
