mustang or camaro?
 
right now i own a 94 chevy camaro Z28 6spd and i wanted to the fix the car mod the car for street racing ,by putting in a new 383 motor,twin turbo, posi differential,and other stuff.Now i just got a 89 ford mustang 5.0 with a 94 motor in it.So im thinkin i will make that into my racer and trick out my camaro.What yal think?

While the Foxbody will be lighter the engine in 1994 was still the 5.0 which just isn't fast. If you want to make the foxbody fast put an LS1 or the lastest Cobra engine in there and you'll blow everyone away.

Trust me, I saw a foxbody with an LS6 and he blew the doors off everyone.

Yea make the fox body the race car, it will be lighter and yea you should change the engine unless you want to dump a *** load of money into that 5.0, i had to think about that for alittle bit i forgot 94 was the last year for the 5.0 i kept thinkin 93 was when i was reading this, i guess cuz of the body change

'94 was the first year of the new bodystyle but '95 was the last year for the 302

the mustang costs more to make fast just a problem with most fords now

It's not hard to make a 5.0L fast. A few modifications can really open up the potential of those engines. Make sure you've done rear gears, though.

I knew it was somthing like that, im a bit rusty with my mustang stuff, i used to be into them a lot before i bought my car i was going to buy a foxbody i still might get one in the future i just like the looks of them

5.0 not fast? You can make them fast as hell. I guess you guys never saw my dads 91 Mustang 5.0 with 480rwhp. :P (btw if you want to see it, let me know)

archemedes 02-21-2005 06:57 PM

they can be made fast but it costs more money than doing the gm engine

yea, but he was plannin on spending all that money on the camaro, because twin turbos and stuff like that isnt cheap, then he could use some of that to make the mustang fast. yea, it might cost a little more then a GM motor, but 5.0s are good *** motors, and if build'em right they can be plenty fast.
