Have everything else be electric, and upgrade the alternator to one of those super efficient types. But as for engine replacement, I guess the stock engine would be needed as a parts donor. I see what you mean about getting a brand new wiring harness though, and I would certainly do that. Not sure what to do with the remains of the old engine though, when it's all over. I guess just spray that oil all over it and put it in a plastic bag somewhere. In case the new engine dies outside of warranty.Next question!Is it worth it to "upgrade" to a Tremec T-56 manual transmission? If we look at the gear ratios of that transmission and the T-5 that comes in the mustang, would be any benefit to have the 6th gear?</blockquote>
