as stated above trying to find out if the explorer iron block is a direct bolt in with no needed adapters for mounts. I can get much better deals on the aluminum blocks for the stang to go into my adrenalin that im building and the weight savings and the quadruple digit power it can hold make it my engine of choice if it will just bolt in. either way the new motor will have cams, DOB450 kit and other supporting mods. hoping to hit 600+rwhp and shoot for low 12 high 11s.
