I'm really into Aerostars, and I'm considering finding one with a manual transmission and then massaging around 210 hp and 275 ft·lbf out of the 4.0 ohv engine (did they ever come with the 5-speed AND the 4.0?)
What I wanna know is if the transmission would be able to handle that. And if not, is there anything that could be done? I guess theoretically I could put in the HD transmission, but then the shifter would be way too far back, right? Or maybe I could put the internals from the HD into the Star's stock transmission casing? I dunno! Help me out!
And also just for kicks, does anyone know if the SOHC 4.0 would bolt into the Aerostar?
