got a 93 mustang

[BlackBII]

64 1/2 was the first Production year for the mustang, however it shared a frame with the old thunderbird. which was blazin awesome. Could just be a model mixup, but its kool cuz everything from that timeline I still envy today.

There were many concepts n such before the 64 1/2 came out.

OP -

I would find a 87-88 Tbird and yank the motor, and drop it in yours. Give it about 27 psi and you'll be eating 5.0's for lunch.

I didnt say a 6 spd wouldn't just said you could do it. An N/A 2.3 isn't exactly pointless, but you don't have to have a turbo motor nor a computer to make it turbo. Mine is N/A, and am mostly happy with it. The nearest drag strip is about 2 hrs away so have never taken it. Mine has ended up with a stock 94 ranger header, 2.5 inch pinch turn exhaust, a regular muffler, koni adjustable shoicks struts, rear solid mount upper shock mounts, an 8.8 with 4.10's and a l/s, sn-95 spindles on the front, with sn-95 rotors and 99 dual piston aluminum calipers, srock rear sn-95 brakes with north race car brackets, and yukon axles, sn-95 master cyl, converted to a adjustable prop valve, quick turn steering rack with offset aluminum rack bushings, caster/ camber plates, flamiong river steering shaft, ported upper and lower intakes, cam was degreed to factory specs with an adjustable cam gear, also switched coils from a 4.6 mustang with msd coild and an msd distributoless ignition system. Next in line is my through the floor subframe connectors, torquer box plates, and a aftermarket k member. Mine also has a 93 T-5 spd in it with alum flywheel and a 5.0 clutch from zoom...... like I said i'm happy with it for what it is, I will out run any 5.0 i've come across so far in any turns, but the straights get me, also I still have stock rear arms with new bushings saving up for a 3 arm kit with a watts link, i think they are called watts links anyways.

That's all find and great, but I still don't see how modding an NA 2.3 isn't pointless? Of course you'll outrun a stock 5.0 in the turns if they're on stock suspension lol. I'd be willing to bet your car MIGHT run a 16? IDK, I guess it's all relative, but that would be what I consider pointless.

well all depends on what you wanna do. I run scca, not the strip, most of our courses are no bigger than the wal mart parking lot. Also i'm running in the stock class, until the sub frames and k member. In stock class no turbo's unless it came with it, period, even in the higher classes if you run a turbo you have a 1" rstrictor to run with it..... If you still think an n/a 2.3 is pointless you may need to go watch some mini stocks at the local dirt track....

Very true when you put it that way.

Just don't hear of that too much with fox guys I guess.

Cool car, not really my cup of tea, but I can respect that. But I did have to LOL at a few of his comments, especially at the 8750rpm comment.
