Sorry bud but im already doing a turbo 5.0 swap. Man I already claimed that.
Plus shaun, it's called do a search or read swap conversions b4 you post. There's a noob asking this same question everyday. If it was up to me and i was a Admin I would erase yours and about a thousand other posts with the same question. But then again Jason likes showing the media how much bandwith his site takes up for popularity reasons.

Right now im contemplating on CARB or EFI. Both have their faults and benefits. Plus its not a Turbo 5.0 FD project only, it's a complete rebuild project so it'll take me a little longer.

Yeah, you're on it. But you haven't pulled it off yet. And no one has seen pictures of it, so it could be like the big bomb shelter that I may or may not be building under my house.

Hey, why doesn't someone try putting an '03 Cobra engine into an FD?

Yeah, for when the Russians invade us.
What's that you say, the cold war is over? I don't believe it. Twint78 will have a 302 in his car before that ever happens.
And yeah, why doesn't someone put an '03 cobra motor into their FD?

The point is that you'll probably move on to some other "flavor" next month. I mean one week it's a 20B, thenext an lt1, the next a built 13brew, then a 20b, then a turbo 5.0 You change your mind so damn muich that I've stopped paying attention, and I've never seen you post a single picture to support any of your swaps.

Me changing my mind is how i've always been. Sorry, but I'm not changing it anymore. I've been sticking with the turbo 5.0 project for the pas two months now.
I had the built 13b b4 I did my lt1 swap. I went from a built 20b to gn to 20b all the damn time, couldn't make up my mind. Then I said **** it, talked to mechanic who is 5.0 partial and let him talk me into it. Then I couldn't make up my mind whether I wanted turbo, supercharger, or naturally aspirated. Then I couldn't decide between carb or efi. I have chosen efi. Just the nature of the beast. Believe me it irritates the **** out of me too. And my own brother doesnt believe until i do it too. He says to me," I'm sure you'll change your mind again. You do not even want to know how many paint schemes I've planned and charted out.

So you are like a fart in a hurricane??
Just kind of going everywhere!!
How about this though a 03 Cobra motor in an FD? Why hasnt anyone thought of that?
Honestly though I think a GN 3.8 would be super badass
