@CemetaryGatesML Thanks "bud" for explaining to a mustang owner how to mod a mustang and adding the fact that this 80's car is old. Learn how to spell cock sucker.

you got to remember, its a auto mustang! has bad launches cuz the stall on the torque convertor is only about 1700 rpm, way too low. put a 2500 or 3000 stall in there, which is near max torque, and lose .5-1.0 sec off the 1/4 mile. theres also more power lost through that auto trans, 15% est manual, 20% auto. but if you want to make a strip only car, auto is the best.

@jobinblow Automatic 5.0 mustangs only run 14.7's in the 1/4 mile..they run like shit..If you get a 5.0, you need a 5 speed, there a whole nother world next to the automatic..the 5 speeds destroy auto 5.0's..My stock 2011 hemi ram 4x4 quad cab runs 14.58's in the 1/4 mile..I beat my buddys mint condition garage kept 5.0 AOD mustang all day long..Now, the 5 speed on the other hand..he rapes my truck..

Stop aruguing about foxbodys. Their is not alot they can beat stock or even with a mild H/C/I setup. Foxbodys look and sound great but have no power to back it up. The best thing you can do to a fox is look in the aftermarket for a longblock swap or if you want to keep it Ford a nice 351w should give it some bite. 220hp (or however much, still sucks) doesn't cut it. A honda H22 makes that stock as well (I'm not a Honda boy, just know about honads). Great chassis, poor powerplant.

Wrong...you guys need to learn your freaking mustang history on here. The 85 GT had 210 hp, the 86 GT had 200 hp and actually were the quickest foxbody 5.0 made next to the 93 cobra's. the 87-92 GT/LX 5.0 put down 225hp while the 93 GT's put down 205. The 87 GT's were the best for mods. But in stock trim straight from the factory the 86 GT's were known to have run mid to low 14's...That's incredible for a car in the mid 80's....all for around 8-10k brand new.

@CoronaJoe true, im not a very good speller, but i make up for it in huge wiener size.

[stangredemption]

from 87-93 ALL 5.0's were 220hp/300ft lb torque with the exception of the 93 cobra's being what he said "235hp" and with 320ft lb torque.

[samidaram]

@CemetaryGatesML actually, from 87-88 it was 235hp, 89-92 was from 225-230, and the 93 was like 220 but the 93 cobra was 235

Race grade? HUH? How about running some engine cleaner through the system and giving it new rings and bearings and new plugs and other typical tune up items. Heads and cam and 3.73's
