experiment!! 3.8 v6..how long will it last at WOT? results soon...
OT to anything import related but it'll be fun!! and since alot of you dislike domestics, i figured you'd be interested in one dieing.
im doin an engine swap in my 95 v6 mustang to a 5.0 starting TODAY..the engine has a warped head or something(i ran it hot
) and i dont want to spend anymore money on it when i have another engine that runs just fine.
SO, were gonna blow it and slap the 5.0 in.
question is..how long will it last? 1 min? 5 min?
i think around 5 mins. ill post pics if a rod slings through the block or the intake or something nifty like that
so, post your times!

IS IT A HONDA? NO
IS IT AN ACCORD? NO
the 3.8L blew a head gasket and it would normally last indefinately at WOT since it has a rev limiter built into the ECU. so holding it WOT won't really bother it since you will hit fuel cut off at redline. If it is still leaking coolant then it would run until it seized.
