Mine never has spun them in reverse, but I wouldnt do it anyways cause once its hops its horrible.I am waiting to get mine dyno'd soon. I just got done rebuilding the stock 3.8 from ground up. Its basically all stock for the motor cept for the pistons they are hypereutectic. Stock size but lighter and I put a remand crank, new timing gears/chain, reused the old cam, and piston rods were good still. Put another set of heads on it, should be stock, but they were gone through by the guy I had put my short block togehter and I did the rest. I also put NGK radium spark plugs and new wires. also has a Accel ingition coil on there too.Toss on an aluminum drive shaft from ford racing and 3.27 gears with T-lok. Plus it has a all new cooling system from the radiator to the heater core. I picked up a Canton cooling resevoir for it. Had to pull the bracket out a bit so it would fit on it properly.I still have to fire it up for the first time since I pulled it apart over a year ago. I just need to wait for this snow to leave the roads and I'll start her up and drive down the road a ways for once.There are some ideas you can do to yours too. I still need to get a cold air. I got my other 3.8 to build now, but its not going to be stock at all for the motor.I spent a good grand on the complete rebuild for the red stang I bought for 600 bucks with blown heads.</blockquote>
