Guy Sticks Mitsubishi 4G63 in a Fox-Body



Honestly? I think this is pretty freaking awesome. Fox-bodies are definetly the only body style of Mustang I think I would be okay with this in only because it the lightest one (and already came with a horrible four-cyl). The 4g63 is Mitsubishi's best engine, probably ever. It's the turbo-charged lunch box that they used to power the Evos and the 2nd gen eclipse. you know, the one that didn't suck.

What do you think? Heresy or a good choice? Check out the video on the blog.

Is this the fate of the Fox Mustang, doomed to bastard motor swaps because they are light weight and good at drag racing. A truly ignoble end to an important part of Mustang heritage. At least it wasn't the usual trite LSx swap.

I just threw up a little in my mouth

The only thing better is a Nissan Skyline motor in a first gen Mustang

Pick any Ford engine you want and put it in the car but I loathe putting other manufacturers motors in any other manufacturers car.

But hey it's their car
