Build story
I bought this car used when it was a couple years old for my wife to drive. She drove it as well as my kids. Ultimately the 4.0 blew-up. I decided to look for a GT donor car to swap a V8 into it but after researching the 2011 and up 3.7 Cyclone I decided to go that route. The 2011 and up V6 cars had the GT size, brakes, 8.8 LSD rear axle and other upgrade over the 2010 and older S197's. The 3.7 6 speed was rated with more HP than the 3 valve 4.6 V8 in the GT and the weight was quite a bit less than both the 4.6 V8 and the 4 liter V6 auto combo. Pretty much everything had to be swapped over but the platform is nearly identical so the swap went pretty well. Since the swap, the car has been my daily driver. I have begun collecting parts to put turbos on the 3.7 next.
