The sleeper theme is cool, and available mustang parts for suspension are a big help. However the 5.0 is no power plant even with mods. there is nothing like the look on a mustang owners face than when they get left at the line by a 3/4 ton 4X4. If $ wasn’t an issue then I would say go Diesel. Dollar for dollar you will get considerably more HP from mods to a diesel than a gas, not to mention longevity. Just my 2cts

the car is using slightly more oil than normal. With just over 300,000miles the car was using a qt every 3-4000. Recently replaced the Timing belt ,water pump and radiator. The coolant hadn’t been flushed in over 100k and looked pretty bad. flushed the cooling system and within a week noticed oil in the coolant reservoir. Now having to add a qt of oil every 1000-1500mi. Car still runs good and never overheats. Will move the head gasket forward with the head gasket replacement and have the head checked. Will keep you posted.

And thank you for the input.Thank you. If you could, please enlighten me on the block test. Can this be done with the engine in the vehicle or removed?
