Just for fun idea - Ecoboost drivetrain swap into an older Ford car

I'll third this idea.  A rwd Fox can easily go low 9's and high 8's with only minor suspension.  A good friend of mine has a '88 coupe with a big inch Windsor single turbo going 8.70's at 165 with surprisingly minimal chassis.  It's a well proven platform and cheap in comparison.  Here's a pic of the love of my life back in '94.  1.30 60 fts with just slicks and Lakewood bars, which are really outdated now.

Did you learn anything from this? Was thinking about the same, but an f150 application.

I pontiac fiero with the 3.5 would be cool or a MR2.

I have been thinking about ecoboosting my 97 ranger.

I'd skip the awd and just go rwd. Or some how fit the 3.5 to a subaru awd system. Now that would be cool.

I want to rwd and 5.0l my Flex. Hell they sell a bolt in kit to do it to a Focus!!
