Hey everyone, I just joined so i can expand my mustang knowledge. Here's some pics and details on my Fox, it's an early 89, T-5, so far the mods are Longtube headers, 3.27 rear-end, short throw shifter, ES Trans mount, Convert to Mass Air, BBK CAI Fenderwell. Over winter there is ALOT being planned, but for now it's a secret Let me know what you all think!!! Hope you like it!















And a little fun...

nice man, real clean. i love my 327's so dont let anyone tell you they arent enough gear, cuz they are perfect especially with the gas prices. And if its an 89 there was no Mass Air conversion...lol.

No, it was and early 89 that got through with the speed density, so i had to convert it over.

Um if it were me to do all over again, i'd throw all that into syspension mods acordingly to what your going to use it for? You can have all the power in the world but if ya cant get it to the ground what good is it? Then whats left go to speed mods! Nice stang, where are you located at? peace

1. Suspension
2. Brakes
3. Wheels and tires to clear the big brakes
4. Power

Throw a beefy rear end in there somewhere in between and you'll be set.

Great lookin' car BTW!

I have alot of different things that i'm debating right now, the trans has ben giving me some issues so i might get a new one or something, maybe a S/C or a fabbed TT kit that a friend and I would do over the winter, or maybe even a crate motor, i really have no idea what to do. right now i want to get the power done, then other things will fall into place i'm sure.
