Dang guys, I don't know what sort of parts make it over to your island but here the aftermarket has really stepped up on the modular Ford engines with some of them like the 4.6l supercharged Cobras (Mustang) reaching almost legendary status (nicknamed "terminators") and running the GM competition (Camaros and Firebirds) into extinction. After the retro looking, and modular powered, 05 Mustang came along and kicked everyones ass here the other big 2 (GM and Chrysler) have come running with "me to, me to", retro styled pony cars to try and head off the Mustang stampede. But the momentum has already swung the Mustang way just as it did in 1964/65 and the aftermarket has jammed it into high gear as well. Over here the quick way to serious power with the mod motors is with a supercharger. Smog approved, 1 day install, in some cases double the power. The only down side that I see here is the extra plumbing!

2 cents from across the big pond, Steve
