[SN95N/A]

Nice car!

[Blowpastyou]

Good start!

[jack90gt]

thank you sir

[k062693w]

Nice Ride !!!

Is it me or does the sign say 1989 ???

[jack90gt]

I think that was the sign from his old one. He had an 89 b4 that that he sold...

[2Kblacksleeper]

That's a very nice start.

I'm spending more than I planned on mine now, but it will be worth it.

I'm partial to the gt since I have one also.

[Johnny O]

Looks good! :bigthumb

[Stangman]

Looks good Jack! I love the 2 tone cars... Paint that hood to match and it will look killer!!

Car does look pretty clean and original down to the cheese-graters. (minus the hood and pony's)

[jack90gt]

Yeah I am gonna hunt down some lx tails or even some 85-86 tails for it... The gt's just look so much better with them...

[5.0Greaser]

Nice find.It looks like a pretty clean fox.Keep us updated.

[jack90gt]

Thank you....

[Blowpastyou]

LX tail lights FTW!

[jack90gt]

Yep do not like cheese graders at all.....

[draggin50]

Looks good Jack. You'll have to bring it out sometime as soon as the snow melts!

[INSANEBA]

NICE! It looked good in that txt you sent, but this is a way better view lol. Nice start on mods too!

[NXcoupe]

Looks good, congrats!

[jack90gt]

Thank you sir... Hopefully as soon as it stops snowing I can get started on it. Can't wait to come down there this summer and check out you guys tracks...

[93snake]

Looks clean, good car to build, look forward to seeing it!

[jack90gt]

Yeah I can't wait. Tracks around here are getting boring... Bad thing is there is a track 5min from my house too...

[93snake]

I am sure that once YOUR stang shows up, the track will not be boring!!! lol

[jack90gt]

Well I have takin all the other ones down there. Just gets boring going the same place all the time... Shootin for 11s all motor this summer...

[93snake]

Hey man, hope you didnt take that the wrong way, you should come down and make some runs and hang out!

[jack90gt]

No man its all good...I plan on coming down for a weekend and hanging out....

[INSANEBA]

I plan on bringing the bikes down that way a few times this summer. Just picked up another enclosed trailer to make some trips with, so it's go time!

[jack90gt]

Hell yeah man...

[jack90gt]

Well got a mass air computer and harness and sensor. A buddy had a very rusted 90lx that was gutted beyond belief. He gave them to me for free(hell yeah) then he said bring the car over and he would swap it over for me.

[1987coupe]

i dont think a harness out of a 90 wil work in a 87 unless you change the dash harness also because of the single plug for the harness on a 90 and a 87 has two. icould be wrong but i dont think it will work

[Marker1989]

Correct, he needs an 89 harness. That's all that will work, plug n play that is, unless he gets a hold of a MAF 88 harness lol

[1987coupe]

i was thinking that was what i used on my coupe

[jack90gt]

Shit that sucks then....

[jack90gt]

Hey man I can just cruise to your crib and then just follow you down if you don't mind...

[jack90gt]

Well for now I think I will just leave it speed density and see how far I can take it....

[Adams89]

Looks good brother, get er ready to raise some hell when the weather breaks !

[satan jamez]

Speed density is fine. Just put the parts on it then have a chip made for it at MD. You're good to go. You may need to tow it to the shop to have it tuned as it will not run to well if at all depending on the mods.

[jack90gt]

Well we are looking at about 11.70s is what it should be runnin... All on a stock cam.. I have a buddy that runs nmra pure street and he has a lot of little secrets up his sleeve...

[93snake]

are you going to "share" some of those secrets in your project thread as you build :rolleyes:

[Marker1989]

You have my attention, please share..

[jack90gt]

Oh yeah def man and there will be a lot of pics...we will be starting on it here in about 2 weeks...I can't wait. It is like an early x-mas present....

[Flaming87lx]

I thought you already have a mustang that runs 11's???? Why would you build another one thats not any faster??? :confused::confused::confused:

[jack90gt]

I sold that one when my son was born to pay hospital bills for him. Then I had the primer one I got for $1100.00 then I found this one and its a lot cleaner so I bought it and sold the primer one to my other buddy. Well now that I have spilled the last 3 months of my life any more ???. Not tryin to be shitty but why couldn't I have 2 mustangs and have one be faster? This is just a trial to see how fast we can get a sd car to go on the cheap side. I thought it was a cool idea really.

1. Well I never seen it up for sale so I thought you still had it. 2. If your trying not to be shitty than you shouldnt word things like a smartass. You could have politely said that you sold it a few months ago, I didnt need your life history. 3. To answer your question about 2 mustangs that run the same, I guess you could, but I dont know anyone who has ever wanted to do that. Most people that have 2 mustangs have one as a DD and the other for racing. 4. As far as seeing how fast a 5.0 goes with a stock cam, well people have been trying that since the 80's, its not like that idea hasn't been beaten like a dead horse. But hey, its your project... I'm not trying to be shitty either. :bigthumb

[jack90gt]

Well it didn't sound like a smartass to me that's why I put in there that I wasn't tryin to be shitty. I guess I will just keep beatin that dead horse.. Glad that got settled...

Speaking of beating a dead horse, people have been building these cars since 79 when they came out, yet we all still build them today. Some build 5 or more to the same specs. Hell I'm trying to get mine to atleast the specs of my last one. Just like Jack I had to sell mine for more important reasons, and just wanna be back where I was atleast. He wasnt trying to an ass, just trying to make a lil joke. Maybe you should stop trying to be so damn apprehensive...:bigthumb

I know people have been building them since 79:flipoff:, you didnt read what I wrote correctly. And lets just say Jack and I have a history and leave it at that. :bigthumb

yeah a history of theblk silver and purple 88gt I had that I was going to trade you for the pace car you had but I got screwed around on the title for it and I found out that it did not have a 331 in it like it was supposed to have..... So I was not going to trade it and then have it come back on me that it wasn't what it was supposed to be..... That is our history......

[draggin50]

Shit happens and Im sure it wont be the last time someone gets a little sand in the vag!!! But anyways get started on them mods and get it ready to bring down. Keep it up buddy!

A re-pinning of the harness would save a little money in this case wouldnt it? Instead of dumping his free parts?

[Marker1989]

Yea it would, but he has to be up to the task.

Hey Jack, wheres those pure street "secrets" I've been waiting on lol

[jack90gt]

well it's sitting outside right now. Getting ready to take it to a storage place so that I can get started on it.... Just work and family has got me all tied up but I will get started soon on it.....

[Stangman]

Here you go Jack..

http://www.stangnet.com/2002/01/23/mustang-mass-air-conversion/

[93snake]

Hey Jack, just to get back on topic... whats your plan? keeping the car SD or are you planning on mass-air? and still waitting on those "secerts" here too ;)

[jack90gt]

well hopefully get started this week. I talked to my buddy that's gonna help today...the only thing that sucks is he has to drive like 60 miles one way to help me out..... Details to come... I was going to buy another car to race but haven't found one yet. So I might just dump that money into it... It will be a full suspension car the rest will follow......

[Blkcobra01]

Nice car man looks like my 92 GT love the wild strawberry titanium two tone, and two tone GT's. Good luck with build Id keep the cheese graters im partial to them but thats me lol good luck.

[93Turbo4v]

early 90 is the same as a 89 harness.its got 2 plugs

[93snake]

... I was going to buy another car to race but haven't found one yet. So I might just dump that money into it...

Just remember 2 projects is sometimes ONE too many :D but anyhow, sounds like a plan , getting the best out of the power you already have by doing the supension first.
