85 5.0 Mustangs

[black88coupe]

Good luck on your build. I ran my 85 at Milan last week. My motor is a stocker that I bought for $250 to get the car on the road. My buddy gave me some 1.7 roller rockers so I put those on. It also has a 1/2" intake spacer. I call it my wanna-be stocker. Its not fancy or a show car by any means but I have fun with it. It's a pretty simple setup in my opinion. The DA was about -100' on this pass. I included a link at the bottom which is a video of my car. Also, I have a few other ideas for it so it should be in the 12's soon- without touching the motor. It weighs 2760lbs race ready minus driver.

It went:
1.81-60'
5.293-330'
7.724-594
8.268 @ 82.71mph-660'
12.61-1254'
13.05 @ 101.45-1320'

Would make an excellent Pure Stocker

Nice Fox.
Only one problem. It's so far away from a Stocker, it's not even funny.

The 86 e5ae heads were a 1 year deal but they mage 2 different versions the ones that were put on 302-s hade 7/16 bolt holes and the ones that went on 351-s had 1/2 inch bolt holes but everything else is the same but either way they are junk they will not flow even close to what nhra says because of the pollution junk that's cast in them
