Ford 8.8 swap?

Ccrussell said

Thanks for all the replies. No i havent purchased anything yet. Am liking the 8.8 option , essentially due to its cost, and durability. I am liking the mustang GT option even more.
While i would obviously like to keep this all mopar, cost overides that choice and Ford will be the way to go in this case. (I have been looking for an 8.25 with limited slip but have not found anything affordable )

Just curious, what happens if the slant six lays down after the turbo is installed... Turbo small block mopar...? I lean towards over builds when it comes to the drivetrain. I put a Dana in a 318 car for my wife, reason being once she gets bored with a car running 8.50's I will get to build a 408 to replace the 318. It's all about "your" long term goals with the car. Will be interested to see how big a turbo you slap on the slant and how well it runs. I also thought about a small turbo on the 318 after a rebuild vs a 408... So I'll be watching this one, good luck sir:happy1:
