    Best Suspension For A 1989 Convertible Gt 5.0?

    What is the best suspension to put on a 1989 convertible GT 5.0? The stock suspension is a little lower in the back than the front, so it doesn't look just right. It should be a little higher in the back.

    Has anyone done business with T and L Engine Development in NC

    I havent purchased an engine from them, but I almost did. After looking into it I decided on another place. I was told that they build good engines, but it takes them a lot longer than they say it will. And also, when you try to call and find out what is going on, they dont hardly ever answer...

    Fuel pump question

    For now its naturally aspirated, but in the future it will be supercharged. I'm also wondering what size fuel pump? Also, when it gets hot the starter drags, do I need a high torque starter. Thanks for any help.
