Rebuild 95 Mustang GT
I am just getting into cars.
This mustang has over 100k miles on it and I wanna beef it up and start going out to the tracks around me. I also would like it as maybe a weekend driver,. Definaltly not looking to make it a daily driver. The list below is what I have compiled over the last few monthes and plan on purchasing and just wondering if I'm making any mistakes. Thanks ahead of time for any help you guys can give me. Vortec T-Trim Supercharger 410 GearPower Pipe K&N Air Filter Pro M Mass Air Meter 75MM Mac Throttle Body Holly Systemax Upper and Lower Intake w/Spacer A - 4 Ford 4 Bolt Main Block Steeda CAM for blower cars 347 Stroker Kit 1.09 17CC Dish Pistons 4.04 Forged Pistons Forged Crank H Beam Rods High Volume Oil Pump Balanced and Blueprinted Moroso Seven Qt. Oil Pan SBF 50 oz. Steel Harmonic Balancer Trick Flow Twisted Wedge Heads Ported to Match intake 3/8 Roller Rocker Arms 1.7 Ratio Cromemoly Push Rods Ford Motorsports 8.8 Detroit Locker Rear Differential Moser 31 Spline Rear Axles with C Clip Eliminators 5-Point Racing Harness Racing Wheel Studs Metco Motorsports Upper and Lower Rear Control Arms Stage 4 Star Performance Clutch Tremec TKO Five Speed Transmission McCleod Steel Bell Housing Steeda Dual Adjustable Clutch Quadrant/Firewall Adjuster/Heavy Duty Cable BBC Shorty Powdercoat Headers MAC High Flow Cats MAC H Pipe w/o Cats MAC Cat Back Exhaust 8 Point Roll Bar Full Length Frame Connectors Aeromitive Fuel System 50 LBS. Injectors Be Cool All Aluminum Radiator MSD Blaster Coil MSD 6AL Ignition Control/with Dual Stage Rev Limiter Steeda Tri-Ax Short Throw Shifter Battery Relocation Kit A Pilar Dual Gauge Pod also with SCT Mustang 4-Bank Eliminator Chip w/ 3 Free Custom Tunes (88-04) and FMS 24# injectors |
Cams from Steeda would not be my first choice...just my opinion. I don't know who they deal through, but for your setup I'd look at Crower, Comp, or HiTech.
Secondly, shorty headers would not be my first choice. A nice set of longtubes will be much better, and offer more power up top for you. Plus the centri's tend to love LTs and the top-end power. Lastly, is there a reason why you're going with a centri versus a turbo setup? The reason I ask is because generally a good turbo setup will produce much more power, as well as not having to worry about the lag of a centri (depending on if the turbo is ran in its efficiency range or not). Just wondering... |
How much money are we starting with and how long of a time frame to get this done? I am thinking a crate motor spec'ed out for the forced induction setup you want to run. Then everything else is a piece o cake.

There's a lot of fail happening there in that list. Seriously, I know you're asking for help but I'm in full double face-palm right now.
Let's start by stopping and asking yourself that secret pair of questions that lead to successful projects: What the hell do you want from the car? How much money are you prepared to really shell out? As soon as you give me a good pair of answers then I'll help you further. |

Also, will all that you mentioned, you definitely would not go with free tunes cause all that money you just spent will go to waste once your engine blows up. And another thing, 24lb injectors will not be enough. I'm running 42lb injectors with my vortech setup on a stock block. Again, you'll need to figure out what your power goal is and budget before you start doing anything. |
first thing first, if you're doing a T trim you're going to need a stronger block. 500-ish rwhp from that blower and the motor will break in half. Some parts you have picked out too thoroughly and others that are entirely more important you've left out completely or not really understood what's needed to take the kind of power a big blower on a poked and stroked windsor makes.
First thing first, don't order any of those parts. All of those things come as assemblies that are much cheaper when purchased complete. If you're really serious about dropping 12-15 grand we can get you there. |
