Dye4Life 10-30-2007 11:30 AM

so you have a 3.8?
the only problem with that is that the head gaskets are knwon for going out in those motors hence the recal by ford.

how many miles are on the engine and where are you located?

Find a wrecked 5.0....

The 5.0 swap is easy, just get an 87-93 parts car and swap in the motor with the engine harness and computer. If you're good with wiring you can make it run well. I did a budget swap for a guy a few years back and wound up running a speed density computer in a 96.....

Hello I one 04 stang 3.9 v6:wavey:

my_2000stang 12-24-2008 11:48 AM

I bought a 2000 Mustang 3.8L V6 with 167,000 miles salvaged. Major front end damage except for engine. I fixed up the body and suspension and straightened the frame. It now has 185,000 miles and there have been no problems with this engine. It's surprising with all it has gone throught being salvaged. But these 3.8L from Ford are very reliable. All i have heard was good news. ANd that head gasket thing was a recal, but only in minor circumstanes. Great engine.

my_2000stang 12-24-2008 11:48 AM

this is still the stock engine with no major performance upgrades.

stangv6 12-24-2008 11:52 AM

I've got a v6 3.9 2004 mustang engine has 53.000 miles on it it runs great its charcoal gray
