    Welcome
    -- James

    Favorite thing I’ve said that’s been requoted: “"40 year old beercan on wheels with too much motor"

    My four eyed foxes:
    "Trigger" - 86 Mustang GT - Black with red interior. 5.0 T5 built as Z. Original motor ~1/2 million miles. 18 yr daily, 10 a toy
    "Silver" - 85 Mustang Saleen 1985-006? (Lol) Rare 1E silver GT / charcoal interior. The car is a little bit of a mystery. Current project bought as a roller, tons of Saleen / Racecraft pedigree

    Also in the stable - my son’s car. 1986 Mustang GT Convertible. Black/Black/Black conversion. 93 leather. VM1 ECU. T5Z

    past foxes -
    1989 Mustang LX Sport 5.0 AOD white/tan black top. Once I ran this one down I caught a wife.
    Wife also had a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe in the 90's.

    I'm a four eyed pride supporter, are you? Become one today!

    Sorry fellas for taking so long to get back to yall. The car is already 5.0 5 speed swapped. It has a weiand carb intake and summit 600 cam carb. Supposedly it has an e cam also but it really sounds aboit like an H.O. cam to me. It has a nice set of bbk longtubes and so pieced together H pipe and flowmaster40s. I also installed a steeda tri ax shifter with a long hurst 10 inch arm. The suspension on the car right now is shot. The passenger front strut is frozen. I have all new struts and shocks. 5 lug swap with 97 cobra wheels and new falken tires and a GT sway bars. Im going to buy the axles to finish my 5 lug stuff before i start it. Also im going to get some steeda lowering springs.

    Sweet! Kind of sounds like my '87 Mustang. I swapped the engine/trans, but the suspension and tires were VERY old. It was a scary ride!
