Maybe it's because my car is 13 years old. Dont Get It


That's pretty much it. The 3.8L was an excellent engine during its heyday, and it traces its routes back to the mid-late '80's. Those economy numbers are about right for that engine.



well im not really surprised with the gas economy but the horsepower.... thats something else.

a 3.8L v6 should pump out atleast 200hp, thats why i asked him if he has some misfiring going on or a ceased cylinder or some other mechanical power robbing problem with his engine.

Nope. Hilariously enough, before Ford introduced the new Mustang, they got rid of the 3.8, and brought in a 3.9L which brought the HP to a walloping 190HP, and that was around '04. Mr. Green

*me thinks of a furry in an ariel atom* *shudders*

Hopefully, if the guy is willing, I will be getting a 360 from a 66 charger. If that comes in, out goes the stock rear end and diff. And in comes dual exhaust and the biggest drivable engine in our driveway (that can drive, this eliminates the 50 caddy with the 503 ci motor)

Dante, you should have gotten the Charger orange, or whatever its called Dayotona. Still, it is a badass car, but you should have waited a few years to get the Challenger that is coming out this spring. I sooooooo want that car.


Nice find on the engine Smile

Btw, why would i get a 5.7L R/T (Daytona) when i got the 6.1L SRT8 Razz Plus, i like purple.

Challenger, yeah... thats a nice car, but i needed a four door, and the insurance is cheap as hell since it is classed as a full size sedan Smile guess it doesn't matter that your car can do 180+ mph, only that its a big car lol.

what do you classify as cheap as hell?

i just want to know lol.

cause i only know the prices here in Canada, and they rip you off here.

for example i pay around 2600$/annually. for the insurance on my car, and the most i got it to go is 110mph. its a 4 door and older car.

Holy crap.

I didn't know that the daytona only had a 5.7 in it. It is a cool looking car though and they are better looking than a regular stock charger.

EDIT: My dad estimates that with the 3:11 gear ratio in the back, the 6000 puound cadddy is good for about 130. It will also match an early to mid 90s corvette from a dead standstill with 500 lbs of torque at 2000 rpm. Very Happy

Sorry for double post, but Sniper, if your v6 gets 140 horses, feel sorry for me. The barracuda's slant six has about 90 and a single barrel carburator about the size of a silver dollar.(the intake) This is why I want the 360.

My stang has the 5.0 and has done the quarter mile in 11.99 seconds. Not bad for a "ford" Razz

Of course, it's not the stock setup either Smile

TBH though most fords do suck, including many of the mustang models. Probably one of the best fords was the Taurus SHO, and that's because it's engine was made by Yamaha Smile

I've heard no complaints or disses about the newest model mustangs, and the trucks seem to sell well and hold their value. I'm not a truck person though so I don't care.

You guys should also remember that the 3.8L was dead reliable, and cheap to produce.

You can all hate Ford engine, but you cannot ignore that because of its lack of up-to-date technology, the Mustang was a perennial best seller in its class, because of its price. Fuel efficiency is a moot point, simply because the engine was a simple OHV (pushrod) design, and did not incorporate more efficient, and fancier technologies like DOHC, and computerized power management.

The V6 was never about power, or economy. It was about giving someone the option of a cheap, sporty vehicle, which was fun to drive. If you wanted power, you'd opt for the 4.6L. Plus, the 3.8 wasn't exactly a slouch either.

I just stripped my car down to bare metal last fall. Cut out both quarter panels and replaced them. The motor came out in the summer and the rebuild process started. While the paint was stripped I had to gut the interior to get ready for paint. Mounting my new bucket seats. I'll need to order a set of 4 or 5 point racing harness's soon. Dropped my motor off at a city 2 hours away to be computer balanced.

1974 Nova SS
383 Stroker (Roughly 6.0L), 450HP, 500Ft/lbs.
Th350 Stage 3 Transmission, Full manual valve body(shift like manual. You can't put it in "drive" and go.)
Ratchet shifter just to make the transmission worth it.
Posi traction to get both of my 12" wide tires spinning. 295-50r15's.

Hopefully I'll get around to a minitub this summer. If not the tires will be sold and smaller ones will be put in. I'm dropping the car down just below stock height.

Paint comes this spring after the snow goes away.

Pictures haven't been worked yet. Here's the originals:

$2000 sounds pretty reasonable.. I purchased mine for a total of $20k AUD, and spent another $10k on mods..
