ProChargers?
What does everyone think about a procharger, intercooled on a 3.8l V6 all stock 99 mustang with 50k miles. Never seen a winter.

I'm thinking that you are spending a lot of money and time on a car that will still catch hell keeping up with a gt. Trade up would be a better option. Just my opinion.

For $4500 you can trade yours in and get a GT around the same year. Sell yours out right and buy a GT with mods already.

The only reason that I would do an engine swap is because it is still listed as a V6 and the insurance company doesn't have to know any better.

Not for full coverage. V8 stang any year will be expensive. 6 or 4 is barely listed as a sports car.

How much could it be for a 20+ year old car and why would you fully cover it?
