Bob, no appology required, it's like you said - kind of a forced love affair. If you were a Ford guy here in the 80's & 90's, you had no choice but to be loyal to what was dished up, and make the most of it, and that's what we did.

Back on the point of the original thread, unless your building a very close "replica", you should feel free to use what suits yourself. Because of our limited choice due to emissions laws, some guys have even had great success with 4.0 litre Lexus engines, and even better with turbo's.

I've got a 302 Windsor in mine, pushing about 310hp. Does me just fine.

Dave
