yea i have currently a gutted interior, and hatch so that saves me 150 lbs. while doing the swap id like to relocate theh battery for better weight distribution and get rid of the AC compressor. I love the styling and looks of the cougar it just needs more speed and power. i know many people on here will tell me to go 3l but i dont want to spend the 1000's necessicary for thats. if anyone else could give me some estimated power or 1/4 times id appreciate it.
