Yes ajusaf, the 94, 95 SCs were the better flowing ones, 250HP as apposed to 210HP rated from the factory, there has been several people here on the site put the SC motors in their Stangs but in most of our cases we just like the car itself, it handles well and is fun to drive. It is a luxury car with a sporty package to it. You can't get all the rest of the bells and whistles on the stang that came on the SC.

Personally if you like the LX I'd just look at the aftermarket items available. Mustang aftermarket would probably be much less painfull than trying to adapt the SC motor to your car.

I think my 95 SC comes in around 3875Lbs, it's heavy for a 6 cyl but hey like I said we enjoy the car it's self. I'm sure most of the other guys here would agree that FORD should have make the SC with a blown 5.0 instead of the 6, but it is a challange the way it is.. :D

I like the six, RJ. It puts it in a different class than most. The only gripe I have is the implementation.

A blown 5.0 would have been nice, or a blown big block... :D :D :D

RJ... your HP number for the 94-95 is a little inflated. I believe they were rated at 230 hp. The increase in HP was due mainly to the better blower.
