I guess it just depends on how quickly you want a properly running motor. If it were me, I'd try to get my hands on that Exploder motor and sell the current motor in the Mustang. Later on down the road you could sell the Exploder heads and motor for decent money so long as they are in good shape. Remember you could get a 302 in an Exploder up to '98...I would think those late model 302's will be more and more in demand in the future. Just a thought.
