anyone with a Mustang 5.0 engine for sale

I am looking for a Mustang 5.0 engine because mine has a slight knock. my motor is stock with BBK shorties, off road h-pipe, American thunder flowmasters with a short throw shifter. My engines giving up so if anyone can help thanks. I'm just trying to keep up with those f-bodies but not with no knocking motor. Thanks Joe_88_fiveO :)

There is a whole 89 5.0 GT on Franklin Park in Sterling Heights for $700.00
The car is a POS but he claims it runs and has a rebuilt trans.

OUTCOMES

knocking stang vs. f-body = stang < f-body
strong stang vs. f-body = stang < f-body

:think: maybe its just me but the outcome doesnt seem to change :rolleyes:?...sooo to me you dont really have a problem do you, if youre gonna LOSE regardless then why not save some money and have an excuse as to why you lost? :lol: J/K

seriously tho i think the problem maybe within the ignition system, not something inside the engine b/c when we started it up right after the header install it had not been driven b4 it started the tapping noise. maybe a full tune up will help; distributor cap and rotor, wires, you already tried the plugs, and if that doesnt help then the next culpret i can think of would be the pcm. maybe its just running crappy b/c the computer thinks you still have them junk headers on there and its going haywire (needs tuning)...just a thought?
