hi,
I have a 1983 mustang glx, that I have had several years, but my old tired v6, has just about, used up its last 9 lives. was wondering if a 1994-1995 v6, would bolt in, or if not what complications would I might run into to.

Putting a late-model motor in your car would be an expensive,time consuming waste.The differences between your 3.8 and a late EFI are so great it might as well be a GM engine.If you want to change it,you CAN modify the 3.8 2V to get some more out of it,but doing a 5.0 would be easier,cheaper and more effective in the fun department.

Its probably better to drop a 5.0 in it than anything else.
