Roush Bassani X-Pipe Questions?

I BELIEVE the part number you want is 5895R2 (or BX5895R2)... That's what they list for a 94-95 351W car.

The 351 has a taller deck height than the 302, so you can't use the 5.0/302 version without modifying it.

Well I used the 94-95 5.0 Gt Mustang Bassani X pipe on both my 94 S351R and 95 S351 with no problems. I guess you can use either the 5.0 or 351 part

Bill!


Call Joe. He will tell you what you want. Like I said, he knows what you need. He is also hooked up with Bassani. He's a serious dealer. His FoxRod is in their sales literature! No more guessing.



Cheers.

I had the mechanic formerly known as Eric (XMP) put the Bassani on my speedster, but I don't recall which x-pipe is on there. I could always crawl under the car tonight and take a look for you.....

my husband bought me the stainless one for a 94-95 gt for my car because that was the one bassani said was for the car but it hung down awfully low probably due to the setting of the engines so low in the car to get the factory hood to clear. i had him take it off and he marked the pipes about 4 inches down from the header flange on both sides and took it to a local muffler shop and had them cut and flare the pipe so one would slip into the other and took it home reinstalled it got it fitting tight up against the car and tig welded it. it looks 200 times better and i can not see it hanging down and i have alot better ground clearence than i had before.by the way it is on 95 saleen s351#21

You won't be disappointed! The Bassani made a world of difference in sound.

My 95 has DFI so the throttle is response is Instantaneous like having a carb. When you blip the throttle it doesn't come down slow with the computer. I'm assuming that with the Ford computer it comes down slow like a stock Mustang? which would make it sound different.

Anyway, I got a stainless Bassani X pipe, and with the Borla's every time I let off to shift it sounded like very bad raspy worn out glass pack's. I cut it out and welded in a H-pipe and it sounded like it should. No more "Crackling" every time I shifted. It sounded so bad I couldn't believe it! It also hung too low which was fixed by modifying it.

Yea,

Or you could just plug the IAC and get that motorcycle throttle response also. There's nothing like a nice crisp throttle response. You guys that live in the nice Northwest cool climate have it good!

Bill, Just make sure you ordered the pipe with the cats. You won't have that raspy sound with the cats. It's a little more monet but the stainless cats will last longer.

Nice.
