Im a stang guy...ive got a 96 GT with a 4.6 v8.....but I honestly have no idea what your asking here.

There is no way to convert a 3.8 or the new 4.0 v6 mustangs becuase they are pushrod engines like people have said.

The 05+ 3v engines respond better to bolt ons than the 4v engines IMO.

If you want a fast v6 buy a 4.0 and turbo it.

They can be made fast but you might as well start off with the GT and put a blower on that.

The new GT's can run 12s with very little work.

Gears, intake, tune, exhaust with some sticky tires can get those cars into the 12s.
