For a few years, Ford sold mustangs with a turbocharged 4cyl. There is a guy
down here in Miami that put one into his B. A friend of mine saw it at a car
show. I have also heard of using the buick turbo V6 with an automatic
tranny. Can't tell you much more than that about it...

HOWDY THERE
I WAS WONDERING IF SOMEONE COULD GIVE ME SOME ADVICE ON CONVERSIONS..
I HAVE A 64 ROADSTER WHICH IS BEING RESTORED,AND I WAS ASKING IS THERE ANY
OTHER ENGINE OPTION BESIDES THE 4CYLINDER OR THE ROVER 3.5 V8?
DUE TO WHERE I LIVE AND THE COST OF FUEL, I WAS
WONDERING IF AN EFI ENGINE IS SUITABLE,PROBABLY SOMETHING LIKE A BUICK
3.8LV6..
IS THIS A GOOD IDEA,THE ENGINE IS ONLY 18 POUNDS HEAVIER THAN THE 4 CYL & IS
FUEL EFFICIENT WHILE GIVING SOME DESCENT POWER AS WELL
PLEASE HELP
