Ok i tried to stay out of this one but all this v6<v8 crap has really made the shit hit the fan.
1st off i would like to say that Lethal is a good shop that stands behind their work and if you are dissatisfied with it they will take time out of their schedule to make sure things are fixed. Next the whole v6<v8 bashing is just plain annoying. Yes we know that out car is slower than the v8 version, but the stock blocks and cranks are a lot stronger than v8's. In fact, the factory 3.8/4.2 block has yet to be split from the abundance of power; and the 4.2L crank, a $200 piece, can support 600+hp. the 4.6 block is good until what mid 500?

A stock v8 isn't much of a challenge compared to most of the F/I v6's, a simple supercharger or turbo and you will see yourself arround the 300hp mark, a bit more than the stock GT which will put down arround 240-250hp stock. With that said it does not take much to beat a stock GT. And the money, ohhh that is what makes the world spin these days. It will take less money to get more power out of a v6 than a GT, i have proved it before over on mustangforums, go look if you care.
Greg, if you need any help/parts i have a 02 motor in my garrage, let me know if you need anything.
Just had to get all that off my chest.
