Advice needed.

My 1988 Mustang GT 5.0 has 3.73 gears,headers,flowmasters,hurst shifter, and stock intake with k&n filter. What would be the next good upgrade with a budget of $500? Tranny is rebuilt, engine rebuilt and stock brakes. Thx for input.

Intake! trick flow is good =). in your budget too i think. www.summitracing.com

now that i stop to think about it, do your cam. you can get a great one for around 200, and have some left over to screw around with say, fuel delivery. like 24# injectors and a suitable mass air meter. you can get that whole deal for less than 300. you'll see more gains from a nice lumpy cam than just intake... although that and perhaps some hogged-out GT-40 heads/roller rockers would be your next logical step.

save another 3-500 and look into gettin a head, cam, and intake...if you put these together right, youll have yourself one bad ass stang! i dont think its necessary to upgrade to a bigger cam w/ poopy flowing heads....plan your cam and intake around your head...their sizes have to correspond to work well...

I agree, cam and injectors on a stock headed and intake'd engine would make a poor running car that isn't really any faster than it was.

I'd second the intake, check Ebay for some deals. Explorer intakes are a hot item for budget power right now, as well as GT-40P heads.

No cam, not to mention he's SD and his computer would have a fit with some serious mods. If you do plan on heads/cam/intake, then you would need to convert to mass air. All of the above will set you back atleast 2 grand if not more. Way out of your budget right now.

So I'd start with suspension. Subframes, shocks/struts, springs, control arms, alum driveshaft. Not sure if you have one or not, but and o/r h-pipe would help out as well.

hah yeah waht he said...i dont know too much about the foxers

Was just about to ask if he still had the speed density system. Was pretty sure mass didnt come out until '89.
