That sounds awesome lol I'm assuming it's a 5.0 right?

The 4.6 didn't make an appearance in the Mustang until 1996. Until then the GT's and Cobra's all had the 302. The LX had the option of a 302 though.

The 95 Cobra R had a 351 in it, but there were very few of those made.

I bought mine when I total a 79k mi LX Sport 5.0. So I ended up with the 93 which had a rough life but only had 90k original miles from the first owner.. It saw several transformations from a autocross/track/daily to a dedicated drag car. I have a few pictures still, and a video of the last setup.. No track video's tho. It was before GoPro's were cheap.

You'd think that in 21 years that I'd make it to the track, but I have not yet. LOL

This is about as good as I can do for a video. This was my first go after my Buddy rebuilt the T5 for me.

Yes sir.... that's some serious business there. I really want some AFR's. My car has to be 30 years old for me to get away with those though. So I've got 3 years before I can get into the motor real deep. I am more of a N/A power guy than boost. I assume you were running a Moates chip, or something like that?

I love that color combo. I damn near painted mine like that. Mine was formerly Oxford White on Titanium.

It was N/a w/nitrous. Never hit it with the bottle. Was actually scared. Best pass N/A was a 10.89 @ 126. Made 480/415 N/A. Completely neutral balanced. shift points were 7400.. It was a stick car as well. GForce T5 with face plated spur cut gears, Spec stage 3+ unspung 6 puck clutch and one of there light weight flywheels. Launch was 6600 on the step. I love Bright Lapis Blue/ Titanium. I will have another one day.

As far as engine management I was using a EECIV from a 88 Thunderbird with a tweecer R/T.
