I love the the looks and performance of the 1996 mustang, but this is the second problem with the engine and its just really a pain in the ass to keep dropping money into it. might as well just put a brand new mustang engine in them. god, that or like a minivan or something. won't be as quick as what those 3.8's put out, but at least it won't sh*t the bed
