Picked up a few new toys
« on: April 02, 2015, 06:16:48 PM »
Hey guys well with trying to down size I sold the Lexus and bought a 89 5 speed mustang coupe. I had some play money and picked up a on3 70mm turbo kit, gt40 heads and edelbrok intake. Shooting for 400-450 rwhp on a stock short block and cam

I decided being back in Texas and the wife really wanted on I grabed a 2006 4x4 z71.  It's got a little lift wheels and tires and flow masters. Runs great. I just put byes black diamond headlight, hid and led tail lights and will leave it stock for her.


I'm excited to put the 5.0 togeather and will get some dyno videos hopfully within a month

Any reason you leave your lawn looking like shit?Even the Walking Dead has better lawns and there is nobody around to mow them

Thanks man. My first car was a 89 gt very. Loved it. I always wanted one. This one is super clean no Ac or heater I have the heater box/core we will see if I ever feel like ripping the dash apart to put it togeather. This thing hold value really well. For a super clean one with heads and cam you look between 10-13k!  I'll just build mine up as I can after a turbo kit tune and clutch/aluminum fly wheel I don't think I'll need much more in a street car it will be a low 11sec on drag radials.  It weighs like 2400lb or somthing insanely low like that

Had a 1991 LX. Vortech, full length headers, after market TB, PLEN, Injectors, dist, etc.  Big fun.

Best thing is the after market world has EVERYTHING at great prices. Summit Racing was always my favorite.

Picture is Not mine but very close.

Oh by far! Hell last night I bought good head gasket for boost and figured arp head studs would be great to do I snagged some. Then I started thinking of I'm pulling those shitty e7 heads of I don't want to put them back on. Found a set of rebuild gt40 heads with .600" double spring. For 300 bucks! Hell why not? The spring will get rid of valve float under boost to!

Your probably right, I just figured there would be so mustang guys on here. But some guys will probably start hating. Even thought that honestly not why I'm posting this

After market heads were always a consideration but I never pulled the trigger. Edelbrock, Trick Flow, so many great choices.

I almost got some trickflows but with the turbo you can make enough power to split a stick block in half lol so it would be a waste

Mike
What the hell is the matter with u
Why would u post this stuff online
People will be able to track u and know where U live
As a jag lawyer u should be more cautious
My advice bro take down the pics
Don't put your family's safety in jeapordy

Also it's a bad financial choice
