Hey guys,
I think we are about to start working on the 89 Coupe we have here at the shop at StangNet.
The car body wise is in great shape and probably does not need paint. But rather trim replacement and interior upgrades.
Question is what to do about powertrain. The 5.0 in there is a solid motor but is stock and has the late miles on it (100k plus).
I am wondering how far to take it and what to do.
Should we go for a crate motor from FRT? or put in the 4.6L Cobra motor I have here that we pulled from our Mach1 racer? It has less than 200 miles on the motor and it's a SHM built block and has Mach1 heads and etc.
I also happen to have an entire Mach1 interior, seats, trim, dash, console etc etc.
Could do one of those crazy conversions?
We also have a new rear end for it, 3.73 gears, a TKO500 in a box and more.
What ya think!
