golly theres a lot of debating here, i know very little about either engine being only 19 years old and into fords for about 2 years , but i like people doing diffrent things, yes this conversion has been done before but not many times and im sure the engine cat be too much heavier, plus if you wanted to be really fancy cant you use the 2.3l bottom end from the galaxy? what kind of power gain would that give you? along with headwork etc?
