Talking got me a v8!!!

well i looked into an ls1 swap for the camaro.....and it was obvious to me that buying a v8 car would be a lot cheaper...so i went on the hunt...and it turns out my cousin was selling his 94 mustang gt....so i took a ride in it....loved it...and bought it

right now the only things done to it are the x-pipe with no mufflers and k&n filter....i'll be adding more very soon...

oh and its a 5spd dont worry

i also still have the camaro for now so dont look at me as a traitor from chevy to ford....i'm still a chevy lover at heart

Do the free mods such as removing the air silencer and bumping the timing. March pulleys are also a good cheap mod. Good luck with the new car.

i used to own a coupla stangs
get a pro 5.0 shifter
get 3.73 gears
get some shorty ceramic headers used
I used to go to the corral.net
but not sure it that site is still around
I got all my parts second hand and as long as people were well known or had references I didn't worry
gt-40P heads are cheap upgrade but you need special headers.
problem is that car is heavy and weak on hp factory. Look at high 14's in the 1/4 even with your mods. The fox body cars were faster similar mods taken into account. But your car is nice and is screwed together a little tighter
have fun
and hopefully it has the mach 460 sound

Oh yeah, remove the screen from the MAF, clean the TB and the IAB valve and at the track run a 70 1/2 inch short belt to bypass the power steering. Ice down the intake and you should run at least mid 14's no problem.
