I'm looking for some advice on what power this will put down. It is a 5 speed 95 gt coupe following mods, .. 88 5.0 engine with new pushrods, roller rockers and a steeda 19 cam, cobra ported heads, cobra ported intake manifold, cold air intake, ford shorty raceing headers, H pipe with cats, slp catback, 3.73 gears, new throttle body, new plugs and wires , shocks, struts, drag radials and the back seat stripped out and few things here and there . I'm guessing somwhere around 230 rwhp 270 rwtq? high 13's in the 1/4

This car has gone best of 14.8@95 1/4 mile pass, with just x pipe and catback and gears, on stock tires with a 2.3 60 foot, with the stock 95 motor and stock everything else.



I'M looking for somewhere around high 13's low 14's @ 100 +.mph


What do u guys think ?

The fox body Mustangs put out 225 horsies stock so in my humble opinion your under estimating what she can do. Although the motor is in a heavier car, those parts you listed should give you closer to 245 rwhp, and with some sticky rubber and suspension upgrades you should hit 'midhi' 13's.

Yeah I'm just guessing, I don't want to guess to high of numbers lol..See what happend was I got lucky, my friend who currently owns it was building up a 306 for the 95 and while doing this buildup, his uncle sold him a 03 mach 1,so he sold his brother who owns a 88 5.0 his 306. so his brother gave him the stock 88 5.0 and he sold his 95 motor and he said hell build it up with them mods for me and sell me the car. so when its done it's my, i cant wait.. but i might change some of the mods to something diff, any advice on what would be the best budget setup, esp for a poor 20 year old kid like me with not much cash lol

a 13.7@102 would be awesome!! lol



see i kno this sounds sad, but this 1 kid i kno pisses me off he drives a 95 sho taurus 5 speed he did a muffler a ypipe and a clutch and it put down 210 fwhp and he brags about smokeing stock gt and bolt on gt's so i want to smoke his ass!! lol his runs mid 14's @96 so i need to beat that lol

Most 5 speed coupe cars with an intake like an e-brock performer/cobra, etc, pulleys, exhaust, gears, and the other misc simple bolt-ons will put down around 235-245rwhp and run mid to high 13's at 101 or so MPH. I ran 13.8 at 98.5mph with similar mods in my convertible which is a good bit heavier than a coupe. With your mods I'd expect at least 250rwhp and even better ETs.
