I'm very big into mustangs and I don't think it would be a problem. I would call advanced adapters and ask them about it.

Sounds like a lot of custom wiring and work. Why wouldnt you just supercharge and tune the 3.8? Do you need that much muscle in a tipsy 4x4? If you have money to burn go for it...

I guess there is no comparison between SVT engine and SC a 3.8.....I have the engine already and the transmission..as one of the guys stated, It requires a lot of wiring etc..But I'm still thinking about it..I hope someone has done it so i'll follow the same foot step.

Anything is possible but I have a feeling that would be a very expensive and labor intensive swap. I would just go hemi. Proven success and there is enough knowledge about that setup if problems arise
