so wat ur sayin is, if i throw a 500hp 302 in a 4popper stang, its gonna hold it, i dont think so, from wat i read about doin the 5.0 swaps into 4popper stangs, u have to change out the 4popper k-member. maybe all those guys who wrote those books were wrong, never know.

I would assume that if you plan on making 500hp you would spend the money on tubular K member.

A quick search and all I found was someone saying the stock K-Members are the same... I doubt ford would take the time to make two different types when one will work for both.

This is correct, there is only 1 k-member. It is the same for both 4 and 8 cylinder cars.

pics will be up soon. im loading them now. it is a little bit of a hand full but it will at least keep me busy. i am having a brake issue though. i was told they needed to be bled so i did just that. well now there not that strong and my left rear wheel locks up when you hit the breaks. and i will need some help. things like dash, seats, stupid stuff like that. im almost broke again but i can work in trade for parts. and now im really kicking myself in the ass for getting rid of all my gages and msd stuff.
