I would like to hear more about this as you progress through the various stages. I am looking to do this possibly as early as this summer.
Good luck.

I take it you're using the Taurus short block and the SVT heads/cams?

Keep me posted! I'm looking to do a swap when my 2.5 SVT gets tired (75k now) I wonder how much work the heads will need at that point(and how much it will cost!)
TIA

Hey chow give me an estimate for the 0-60 time, even if it's a very brief estimate. I've been in my friend's 98 cobra and that is a 5.5 0-60, so what is the 3.0? 5.7, 5.9? Stop teasing.
I hope you are serious. I might be coming down to LA soon so maybe I could meet with you guys, if that is ok with you guys of course.

Hey there British Banger I didn't have a stop watch in my hand(and even though I did I still would want BOTH hand on the wheel) But I can tell u this, in 1st gear after 4 grand u still need to baby it or u get wheel spin and then when your in second still have to careful, In a way I can under stand why there really not that may front wheel-drive cars what have like 250hp@ the wheels its sooooo dam hard to STICK. Never the less I wish there was a buy-now, pay later program Vadim could offer, this is one mod that puts a grin on u in a sec. WOW REAL POWER!!! I felt like a Mondeo Touring Car Driver

I am extremely interested in performing this mod, especially since I found out how to get a Quaife for about $650 bucks in england. (wait a minute I'll be going there soon woo-hoo). Any info you guys could get to me as to price, phone #'s, amount of installation needed, would be extremely helpful. thank you.

Hey KC2000SVT, where in England are you going to? I lived in Chievely (spelled wrong) when I was a child, and have visited Cambridge many times, what a beautiful area to drive in! Don't suppose you could pick one up for me! I was going to go to England this summer, but have decided to get a summer job instead to pay for things done to my car. Send me an e-mail.
