Corvette Online isn't exactly going to build an equal Coyote now are they?

You can go further on factory parts with a Mod motor than any factory LS engine though. The factory engine blocks can live with power levels that would wreck a GM casting. Dart's catalog has LSx blocks, none for the Modulars, simply no reason to cast new blocks when the factory ones can handle 3000+HP. Same with heads, can flow like crazy with 4 valves to use. Cam profiles can be more agressive. The motors aren't as bolt-on friendly but with a power adder it becomes a much different game.

From a true blue oval guy, an LS motor is s great motor but not made for a Fox body. It would take all new electronics plus a world of mechanical issues that are opposite of Ford engineering to make happen. There’s way too many Ford options that work with Fords blueprint to make it a beast.

I’m a Mustang guy and I couldn’t imagine putting a Chevy engine in a Mustang.

A Coyote 5.0 engine with a little tweaking will get you 600 hp.

Get you a t-56 6 speed with 3.73 gears and you’ll be good.

I'll see your 580hp/445ftlb and raise you to 650hp/650ftlb for 14k. LINK, and thats with a 2yr 50,000mi warranty.

The all-new LT4 supercharged 6.2L V8 is the latest high-tech small-block crate engine from Chevrolet Performance. The perfect balance of performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages the technologies introduced on the 2014 Corvette Stingray's LT1 Gen-V small block, including Direct Injection and continuously Variable Valve Timing. The LT4 is based on the same architecture as the LT1 engine, with several unique features designed to support its higher output and the greater cylinder pressures created by forced induction. It includes the Rotocast A356T6 aluminum cylinder heads that are stronger and handle heat better than conventional castings, lightweight titanium intake valves and stronger forged aluminum pistons. While advancing the supercharging technologies established with the previous-generation Corvette ZR1's LS9 engine. This engine features the more-efficient, more-compact 1.7L Eaton R1740 TVS supercharger, which spins at up to 20,000 rpm. That's enough to generate more than 9 pounds of boost. The result is a surprisingly efficient engine capable of producing 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. This LT4 crate engine is offered with a wet-sump or dry-sump oiling system. A controller specially designed for retro-fit application is available. There are also all-new transmission installation kits specially designed to match the LT4 and its 8-bolt crankshaft flange with Chevrolet Performances 4L-series four-speed automatic transmissions and the T-56 Super Magnum six-speed manual.

Why would you buy a mustang? Even if you put an LS engine from a Chevy, your Mustang will still suck.

Cargurus 1989 Mustang GT

Figure this would be a cool weekend car, but price is a bit high.

Maybe I am over my head on this car project.
