the rule of thumb ive always been told, an older car like that, if it was made for a V-8, the factory wouldve put a V-8 in it. the 4cyl cars were made for 4cyl.... body mounts/chassis/drive-train etc will all have to be switched out to do it right... :-\ and if you are gonna do everything you say...i would consider a different platform. IMO if you wanna go turbo on a mustang, build the 2.3ltr. they are already bullet proof...and parts are cheap. those 2 combos make me ;D |
Re:Any 87-93' 5.0 HMT guys ??
to answer my own question... turbomustangs.com has a few junkyard turbo mustangs running stock blocks and 10's...
I own a civic, and TT stealth, and I'm a former 89' LX 5.0 hatchback owner... Each has its advantages, and disadvantages.. I hate it when people are "car racest"... I like them all, if its a good car, I don't car if its made in africa... On the flip, I've seen POS Jap., german, and U.S. cars... The fox body mustang is a legend, and your just dumb/uninformed if your going to deny its race worthyness... Keep in mind I'm a avid honda supporter, I wouldn't buy anything new except a honda, toy, or nissan ( my non-raced 01' focus is a POS forsure !! ). |
Re:Any 87-93' 5.0 HMT guys ??
you guys can dis the mustang all you want. there's just something bout the 87'-93' mustang gt that i like. and if you slap twin turbos on there, get ready for 480hp +.

Re:Any 87-93' 5.0 HMT guys ??
actually the easiest platform to get a 10 second car is out of a 87-92 stang. they stopped putting the wide rear ends in '93.

Re:Any 87-93' 5.0 HMT guys ??
I just think that they look like ----, but then again almost everything from the 80's looks like ass.
Do up the 2.3 Turbo, the block was cast in brazil and good for anything you'll want it for. |
Re:Any 87-93' 5.0 HMT guys ??
I love that body style. I think I would rather have one of those than the newer ones.

i have a 88 LX 5.0 hatchback
i like it, its stout and stable... it has aftermarket springs and shocks and handles awesome... i went around a really sharp onramp corner, with a acura 3.2 type s in front of me, i had to slow down because it couldn't take the corner, it was about to roll over and was weaving into the inside by the guardrail... my stang doesnt roll at all... |
