Re: mustang 5.0 luv em or hate em?

just to add my 2 cents about the 5.0 thing. i drive a mustang. its a "sh**y" 99 3.8l v6. i used to hate it , every week i came up with another reason to sell it and use the money to buy something better

...until i turboed it for about 1200$. i installed 3.73s, a moddified slp dual exhaust and saleen kit on it. some 17s and its pretty nice. for an idea of what kind of hp were talking about, it walks my friends rx7 tt.

i feel like the people who say 5.0s are weak and overrated are almost right until they really get into how much potential they have. i always thought the pushrod motors were garbage but i bought one. i think the fox body is ugly but i think the generation before mine are uglier. yet i still bought one.

if i had a say in what powered the GT. i would have developed a DOHC 5.0l.
