alright guys,
today i did a very bold thing...i bought a 1996 mustang gt with 42,000 original miles. the guy a bought it from worked at a ford dealership and had the mods put on there. the only thing he did really was put on a vortec sq trim supercharger (which u all know is common for this motor), offroad x-pipe, dual flowmaster catback, a tremmec T5 5sp, and a built 3.73 locker rear end. now i am very mechanically inclined b/c i work on cars everyday, but i was hoping u guys could give me some info on the mods for this car and what some terms mean. ok here we go.....first of all i see you guys talk alot about pi heads or non pi heads and cams and stuff. could you guys explain wut pi means and wut kind of heads i have and wut is better?..currently the car is running 6 lbs of boost. wut is a safe boost number for stock internals and where do i get pulleys to increase the boost if i want to? i plan on taking the motor out this winter and building up the bottom end a little bit with new rods and pistons and stuff. is the stock crank good enough for 500 or so horse or should i get a better one? wut kind of internal have u guys used and have the worked well? any other info would be very helpful and appreciated. you dont have to answer all the questions just the ones you have insight on. thank you in advance. :SNSign:
