Howdy Y'all
I'm Jinx. I've been a member for a long time. I don't post too often cause my car has been sitting for like 3 years. I was hoping to do some work on it this summer. As usual though my plans ain't going like I thought out

Yeah eventually. My goal for the time being is just get it running. I have thought it over and decided to buy a cheap stocker. Throw that in it and build the 514 over time. I have talked to prokiller maybe? Or one of the guys on here about buying his block with the b cam and throwing some parts at it. Probably just swap all my stock stuff over. Maybe get a set of gt 40 heads or something cheap. I wanna be able to play with my car again till the monster is done.
The Ram is still the first priority though. I HOPE when I call the shop today he's ready for the rest of my engine parts. I wanna get it running. I miss driving a big truck. I feel like a sissy driving my explorer lol

You could always look into something like an Explorer/Mountaineer swap. You get some GT40 or GT40P heads, a GT40 based intake, and the same shortblock you had stock. Not a bad way to go, to get back on the road and pick up some power along the way.

Wouldn't swaping a stock gt 40 for a Trickflow be ass backwards ?
Adam I was wondering the same thing.

Hey all
Like a couple of other folks here, my name is Matt as well. I have been trolling through the forums here for the last couple of months, gathering info, just checking out everyone's thoughts.
I have a bone stock (except for a crappy Sony CD player), black, '95 GT. Its in better than decent shape body wise. I have an issue on my passenger door that i will need to address at some point (thank you jack a**es in the parking ramp at school) and the hood has the usual stone chips. My AC has a leak. Everything else works like new (including the AODE, which is just as slow shifting as the day the car rolled off the assembly line).
So, I started poking around here (and elsewhere) trying to figure out what to do to make my car actually get up to 35 mph faster than I can by foot. I had heard a lot of different people say a lot of different things, and I just did not know who to believe, so I started investigating for myself.
As of now, my plans are as follows:
1. 4.10 for the rear end
2. Dallas Mustang Speedcal thingy (I wanna know how fast I am going, so I can argue should the need arise)
3. Something to "spruce up" the shifting of the slushbox
In any event, that is a little info on where I stand. Glad to be here and thanks to everyone who takes the time to put out the wealth of info that is available here.
p.s. I need to get some pics taken, but that entails a decent wash and wax, which ain't gonna happen 'til at least this weekend, so when that's done, I will post some.
