After doing quite a bit of research over the past few months, I think I've narrowed down what powertrain choice for the MK4 I will eventually go with. I've narrowed it down to the 5.0 Coyote motor and the 4.6 DOHC V8's, with the possibility of the 4.6 3V as the dark horse candidate. Ideally they would mate to a 3650 from Gforce Transmissions. http://www.gforcetransmissions.com/tran_3650.asp
The rearend gears are still up in the air for me, but I'm open to suggestions. I have 3.73's in my Mustang and 3.27's in my father's SVT Cobra, so I've experienced both. What do y'all think? Looking for a street machine, not a race car.
