Is an engine as strong as it was new if it gets an overhaul? I ask because there's a 1992 Mustang GT 5.0 that I'm thinking about buying and it has about 70,000 miles on a rebuilt motor. Car says about 164,000 miles on it. If I rebuilt the motor with forged parts, would it last another 100,000 miles or so if done right and treated good? By the way, I know you guys are probably going to say, oh no another slow 5.0, but this one has 260 hp at the tires, outruns the new gt's. Has some mods.

If a motor is rebuilt well ("well" meaning rebuilt by a competent person who didn't cut corners to save time and money), it should last and perform as well, if not better, than a stock motor.Wife and a dog, they both think they\'re Kujo.<br /> <br />1999 3.8 A4 Y87<br />Navy Blue Metallic<br />BFG G-Force KDWS 275/40/17s, <br />WS6 Wheels (17x9)<br />Phoenix Transmissions 2400 Stall Converter<br />FRA, Holley Powershot filter, Whisper Lid, Ported Throttlebody<br />2000 manifolds, Flowmaster, WS6 Tail Pipes, <br />MSD 8.5mm Wires, MSD Coils, Autolite plugs<br />Performance Cryogenics treated rotors<br />1LE Sway Bars and panhard rod, 1LE front springs w/SLP Bilsteins, stock rear springs w/ 3rd Gen Bilsteins, BMR STB, KBDD SFCs, 1LE rear lower control arms, 1LE front lower control arms<p>1968 Chevelle Malibu 327 TH350 -
But remember, the body, tranny, rear, suspension, shocks, seats, radio, and glass all have the high mileage.
