You could create a spoof car.

We live in Virginia Beach with no emmisions laws, all we have to do is put some cats on there and a dummy EGR.

momo, ya better get up and do that big bad swap, if you don't you'll probably regret it later, what'da ya got to lose? (not races)

PS
Despite how disturbing it sounds i love that horrible thought of a mustang driven bird/maro but i'd much rather see someone in a mustang stomp someone else in the mustang and when the guy in the losing mustang asks to look under the hood of the other one, the guy shows him the LS1 he swapped in. That'd be classic, heck even throw corvette valve covers on it. LOL.

But just think about racing everyone under the sun with the aro and everytime you lose, you can laugh it up with them and not even feel bad when you point out the ford drive train. Go to the track every night its open to hear them announce this next aro up to the line is ford powered and lose every time.

would the ford guys blame it on the GM body???
