What exactly do you mean by a "Roush motor"? Is it just a motor out of a Roush mustang GT ? If its a v8 there is going to be alot involved in swapping it into your v6. You will need the computer and wiring harness out of the engine doning vehicle, not to mention the v6 trans cant handle v8 power for very long. Give us some more information and I will try to help you out.

Is it just the 2000 stock motor, with no blower or anything? If so, I'd suggest you just get a crate motor from Ford or get a cobra motor from www.stangparts.com

The only cobra ford made in 2000 was the Cobra R, and theres no way in hell that the motor from it would be going for $3,000.

Just because he is mexican he knows? lol:rolleyes:
With only 300 Cobra R's produced (some of them not even making it to the public) I seriously doubt that a person who paid $54,000 for a rare car would leave it hanging around long enough for someone to even breath on, let alone steel.

never the less, putting the v8 in your mustang with v6 components will be very costly. There will be a lot of things to replace / upgrade.
