is there a 86mm Throttle-body for a 96 Mustang GT? this is my frens g/f's bros car (lol)...and he wanted me to help since i kno all over the web

now i believe there is already an 85mm...but id like to kno if there was an 86 cuz hed rather get that lol

if there is a such thing who makes them and for how much you think?
 
head swap kit....by who?...what kinda heads and how bout some specs...how much to cuz money is a bit of an issue for him

i was tellling him mayb like the SVT RAM AIR...or some othewr sort of CAI...and a catback...but thats my thought other then suspenison i mean he already has some Yokohoma Tires...but yeah he wants a bigger TB...but i kno he aint gonnahave the cash for a blower or nuttin
 
Any TB would be worthless on a 96 GT. Even on my 99 Gt the TB didnt do anything.....If he Insists on getting a TB I say dont go bigger than 75mm......Personally I would save up for a Head swap...you Ask what kind of heads...The 99+ heads, cams, and intake can be bought for $400 - $500 and will give him about 30 rwhp....the best bang for the buck for a 96-98 Gt besides Nitrous..

Just curious...How would the new cams work arent they DOHC? or am I missing something?


yes you are missing a lot.

The 99+ heads are called PI heads, Power Improved. The the motors have 2 cams total. Hence the name SOHC(Single Over Head Cam). DOHC(Dual Over Head Cams) have 2 cams in each head. 4 valve, meaning 4 valves for each cylinder(2 intake, 2 Exhaust) while 2 valve means, 2 valves in each cylinder. One intake and one exhaust, like any normal head.

The PI head and intake combo is worth over 40+ rwhp to a 96-98 car. The PI heads, cam and intake flow more air and produce a hell of a lot more top end pull. The cams are, Duration @ .050 192/184 Lift .535/.505 LSA 114.

Do not waste the money on the throttle body on a 96-98 car. It wont do ****.
 
I agree with the other guys. An 86mm throttle body is too much and you should save the money for something else. You can probably buy a set of gears and have them shipped to your door for less than you would pay for a new throttle body.
