If it won't run under, then maybe a converter for the stock 6R80 automatic transmission.
Frankly, I'm thinking of DOT drag tires, license plates, and liability insurance, to avoid the cost of a truck and trailer. It should get at least 30 mpg on the highway. For any race that is any significant distance away, we can rent a U-Haul truck and open car trailer.

Should be able to run index.
I had thought of this combo in 2018 to update from my " Pinto based " 2.3 Turbo.
Buying the car and bolt-ons was going to run 30K. Plus taking out the interior for the roll bar.I think I'll wait.
FWIW....not sure how different the O2 sensors AEM sells for their Wideband O2 gauges are from the OEM Ford versions, but I have been running one for 7 seasons using VP C16 and no issues
