    For @#$%'s and Giggles another HP ?

    How much HP would a stock EFI 5.0 SD gain with an off-road H-pipe, No cats, 2 1/2 inch pipes into flowmaster 40 series mufflers. The only mods are a CAI, and timing at 14 degrees and no smog equipment. 15-20 maybe??

    parts from a 95 5.0?

    It's too early for me... I didn't see motor and transmission??? What did her 95 have in it??? 94 and 95 GT's are "THE" perfect parts car for older foxes. I say hoard the parts......sell the shell and sheet metal to a salvage yard.

    Stock Engine??

    I'm gonna pull the motor before it hits 200,000 miles. It has 165,000 on it now. Sounds high, but it's a 20 year old car so that's a little over 8,000 miles a year. I'll replace it with 87+ stuff. I may need to do a compression test on it. It "feels" fine, but I have a feeling the valve...

The TB, EGR, both intakes, Valve covers, and heads have a blue colored sealer. Is this stuff original?? Or has this stuff been off?? The water pump looks to have...

    Seats Compatibility for an 86 mustang gt

    The 86 GT Halo Headrest Seats are great seats. The 4 banger front seats will bolt to your 86 frames with no problem. I will be happy to accept the 86 seats if your giving them away!!!

    3.27 traction lock rear possible in 1993 5spd GT?

    I too have never heard of a 5spd from the factory with 3.27's. I thought they were 2.73's or 3.08s. AOD's had 2.73 or 3.27's I believe. My 86 AOD came with 3.27's. Going with a lower than stock profile... 50 series, 40 series etc... has the effect of making your 3.27's act like 3.55's or...
