Ok, here's the scoop on the stang. BTW, the pics I have are from last year, the rear tires are smaller than what I have now, I had 26" tires, now I have 28's. Just for reference in the pics.
1994 Mustang GT
186k on body
86k on engine
1995 Cobra motor
Black exterior, black interior
5 spd.
Runs great, very healthy motor.
Heres some info on the motor. The Cobra motor is a 5.0L (302), uses the same bottom and, but has hyper pistons, rather than forged which came on 89-92 Mustangs. The Cobra motor came with GT40 heads, GT40 intake, 24lb injectors, and Comp Cam 1.7 roller rockers. The Cobra's were rated at a 15.3 quarter mile time. My car, when I got it, bone stock down to the paper air filter, went 14.01@101 mph with a 2.0 60ft. So the Cobra motor is waaaayyy underestimated.
My car last season went a best of 13.14@104mph with a 1.8 60ft with only simple bolt ons.
Here's a complete mods list of whats been done to the car that didn't come stock from the factory.
1995 Cobra motor
MAC long tube headers
BBK offroad X pipe
MAC Pro Dumps
Ford Racing aluminum driveshaft
Steeda short throw shifter
Motive 4.10's
21 tooth speedometer gear, speedometer corrected
Cold air intake
Trick Flow Stage 1 cam
Comp Cams triple rate valve springs with locks and retainers (not installed)
Eibach Drag Launch springs (lowered 1/2")
Strange 10 way adjustable rear shocks
Strange 10 way adjustable front shocks (not installed)
Steeda clutch cable, quadrant, and firewall adjuster
Timing set at 13*
Ford Racing wires
MSD cap and rotor
New distributor, alternator, calipers, pads, and rotors up front
Moroso 3" hardened wheel studs
Trac Lok replaced (posi unit)
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
Accel fuel pressure gauge
Oil pressure gauge (not installed)
Front sway bar delete (helps the car launch WAY harder)
Weld Draglites, front and rear. 15x3.5 front, 15x8 rear
Micky Thompson 26x4.5 ET Fronts, Mickey Thompson 28x9 rear
Accel shift light
BBK underdrive pullies
Accel coil
Some aftermarket headlights, they actually look good, can't remember the brand.
5% window tint (black)
Hood pins (because the crappy hood latch cable broke)
So, with the addition of the nice cam, and a taller tire, with a tune the car will go mid 12's with ease. I drove this car to and from work all spring summer and fall without a single problem, and my work is a 1.5hour round trip. The T5 trans in mustangs has a tall 5th gear, so even with 4.10 gears, i was sitting at roughly 2500rpm at 70mph on the highway with the 28" tall tires.
Remember, this car is 16 years old. It's a cheap go-fast car lol. So, this is how I rate it, with all honesty, compared to when it came off of the the showroom floor.
Exterior: 5/10
Interior: 6/10
You can rip on this car all day and it'll never let ya down, except, when you shift it at wide open throttle...
The bad:
Took the car to the track a few weeks ago, trans finally gave in to all of the WOT shifting. Clutch, flywheel, all of that is still good. Just needs another T5. They are a dime a dozen, you can get one in a junkyard or on craigslist for about $150. They are compact too so it's not hard to install it. The trans in my car has been pulled, along with the starter, but I still have it to use parts from just in case in the future, I'd need it. It comes with the car, along with everything I own for the car. I'm no mechanic by far, but pulling and installing this trans isn't bad at all.
The car will also run to its highest potential with a tune. A simple tune will make this car a rocket. Im including a set of Comp Cam valve springs. The lift on the cam is too much, and will bind the stock springs. It's already got some valve tick, so the springs will need changed out. Had to cut the E-brake cable, it was grinding on the driveshaft.I'm saving up for a house, I can always have another project car down the road.
Throw a trans in the car and it'll fire right up. Like I said, though, it needs those springs for sure, and a tune would help. runs on premium gas now due to the timing change and cam swap.
Car is definitely an eye opener and just rips, flat out. Just needs someone with time to finish it.
Anyway, enough talk, here's some pics from last year. I'll include some vids too, not sure with the pics or vids will work. Let me know.
Vids were before the cam swap.. Don't have any of it with the cam swap (it sounds awesome though).
Using up some old tires..
Don't mind the tow strap lol, car got stuck in the side yard haha.
I'm asking $2700. If it doesn't sell, I'll fix everything and sell it for $4500. Last year, before the suspension, and cam were in, I was offered $4000 numerous times, but didn't want to get rid of the car.
