Both GT's. I'm selling my '90 and have BBK lowering springs on, but it sits way too low and they rub a lot. A woman wants to buy my car but she has yet to drive it. She is older and is getting nostalgic so she wants a old 5.0 like she had back in the day. I have my stockers from my 2004 laying around and figure it might sweeten the deal if it doesn't ride like a tank. So, will they fit?

Are you positive? I can't seem to find a definitive answer on this.

Yes they will fit, but it is going to raise the nose of the car into 4x4 territory. I have 01 Bullitts in my car, they fit with no problem and lowered the front a little.
