Hello im buying a 95 gt with a stock 5.0L in it and was wondering what will it take to get the thing into a mid to high 13sec 1/4? Its a 5spd coupe.

Do you think a king cobra clutch, mac long tubes, mac pro chamber,mac cat back, 355 or 373 gears, mac cold air intake, pulleys, cobra manifold, and an e 303 cam with new lifters and timing chain will for sure get it into the 13s? How are these cars on the highway? Thanks

Possibly w/ a the "good driver mod." Are you planning to run street radials?

Friggin love it, smooth and comfy. Gas mileage could be a tad better, but not horrible for what it is.

Yeah one thing though, you should always do heads and cam together, just my opinion though.

Why are you replacing your lifters?

You're gonna have to do some fiddling to get an E-cam to idle correctly, whether you play with timing and an FPR yourself or get an actual tune. They don't like our finicky computers. But providing you do get it tuned up, I don't think you'll have a problem hitting 13s with those mods and some seat time.

Jay Allen said it best - The best cam for stock heads is the stock cam.

I have 3.73 gears, off road hpipe, MSD blaster coil, new plugs/rotor/cap, cheapo ebay cold air intake, a steeda shifter, and bfg drag radials on the stock wheels. Disconnecting your front swaybar and getting some softer shocks will help with weight transfer also.

When I can get sub 1.9 60 ft's I run in the 13's every time.
