Just out of curiousity to see what you guys think with experience with the 5.0
As you can see in my sig, I am putting a EFI 5.0 in my 65 Mustang. The car weighs close to 2800lbs with an engine and tranny. It's a 1994 engine, but I have converted everything to Fox style electronics including an A9P computer, which should be worth a little more power as the A9P is much better than the T4MO. I know that the heavy 94 GT I took this engine out of would flat out haul ass and would turn sideways with a little excessive throttle. So, what do you think it would perform like in my light little '65?
 
Stock cam, the reason it has 30s is because the guy who had the engine in his 94 was going to build a 347 stroker out of it. I am trying to get the stock injectors off of him and then I will have the 30s for a buildup.
 
Anyone have a 1/4 mile estimate maybe? I have 2.80 gears in it right now.
What do you think I would run with the 2.80s and what do you think I would run with 3.55s?
