ready to get turbo what should i do to the stock block first?also what head gasket do you recommend?

[josephpotak]

What do you have done already? I really have nothing special as far as block work other than machine work for the .030" over pistons. I do have ARP main and head studs, and for my AFR heads I have good results with the Cometic MLS head gaskets.

Are you running with the original 302 block? obviously u rebuilt it but tis the 5.0 engine base right?

[josephpotak]

Yes, well it is a 306ci now, which is an overbored .030" 302 stock block.

hey i got a 94 mustang with 450hp i cant get it to hook. any ideas of what i can buy to get it to hook other then tires?

[josephpotak]

Suspension and tires are the two biggest things you can do. The upper and lower control arms are pretty flimsy when stock, replace those, put an airbag in the right rear coil spring with about 6-7psi and it should be better. Tires make the biggest difference after that.

Wow that's sick dude.. I got a the same car, 5.0... incredible what those engines can do.

[josephpotak]

When I had the 5-speed manual transmission it would knock down about 18mpg on the highway. Now that it has the 3-speed "automatic" C4, it probably gets half that, although I rarely use it to commute anymore.

[sn95chico]

what kind of mpg do you get

[99hvacgt]

Yeah, my friend went 9.44 @ 142 in the 1/4 with a C4, PI converter, 2v w/ported heads(foxlake), t-trim and a 3:73 gear with I think around 3200 ibs(i think). Your car is definatly running good!
