I reckon my engine was ran in in the 90's and at 120,000 runs better than it ever has.
If you have a scan through the American mustang forums there are guys putting blowers on cars with 120 - 140,000 on them, but you will see they blow a lot of engines probably by revving too high, they seem to rev 6,500+ regularly!

Im not keen on the alloys but thats easily sorted. Its been listed for 7 days now so may have gone at that price. I suppose it could be someones from here?
looks like Vin #073. Looks nice :thumb
Wheels look like proper Apex's to me, but a non standard colour.

We have done cars with more than 80K miles but did give them a leak down and oil pressure check first. We have had no problems with any of them. These engines are good for very high mileages.
Great. Im looking for a 260 for around the 5k mark so i know im not going to be able to get a spring chicken. Then its going to be a matter of saving for the supercharger. I think the car deserves it :p
Ive only just managed to persuade the girlfriend that the V8 is a good idea... Im keeping the supercharger under my hat for now :o
