Lets say you got $20K..... How would you spend it on your 5.0? Basically what would be your dream build?

And you got all the money at once so you get to do all the mods at once and not have to "Save Up" for them. Sure you could take that money and go buy a New Mustang, Cobra, Saleen or whatever but lets say you want to make your current 87-93 5.0 a Monster.... what would you do?

i would spend 19,500 on getting it lifted, putting it on 24's and putting advertisements all over it.





































then take the other 500 and pay a crack head to shoot me.
but 20k on my mustang. man i would have to sit here and type all day long.
it would deffinatly be a 1000hp d.d.

Drop in a built 2007 cobra motor with all supporting mods, and make the exterior look nice but sleeperish. Possible? IDK?

I'd pay off my credit card and school loan with it, first, and then see if I still have enough left over for something like ... ummm ... an oil change.
