Don't feel to bad about it, 5.0's are extremely tuner friendly, and parts for them are actually quite cheap. What year was the 5.0? MM&FF Magazine made 2 500+ normally aspirated engines, one was a carb, and the other was a 4.6L modular. He could gain HP quite easily if he dropped a set of GT40 heads, and maybe changed the plenum for one from a cobra. Plus, dunno if you heard anything or not, but there are tons of supercharger kits out there for the 5.0 as well.

:twak:

I don't think there is a 5.0 in this area that doesn't have something done to it. Gotta watch for the crazy 5.0's

Fast Cars are like gunfighters, There is always some1 faster and your dead.

Don't feel bad I've seen a lot of 5.0's lose to LT1/LS1's

you can put about 10 to 15,000$ in a 5.0 and have it run 10's

Damn, that sucks... Just keep in mind that youre in a better looking car :tongue: Seriously though, considering the mods you have... that fox must have been seriously modded to hell. Bit of advice, ditch the flowmasters. They dont flow as well as you might think, not to mention in most cases give 0 hp.

Don't feel bad I've seen a lot of 5.0's lose to LT1/LS1's
And many 5.0s have lost to the 4.6 :biggrin:

Only if youre stupid or are including the price of the car:rolleyes:

I would suggest you get the SLP LoudMouth with the SLP Y-pipe. Best sound and performance for its money.

Edit: I forgot that you had headers... a Loudmouth with headers sounds kinda raspy.
