Hehe :P

I'm not overly concerned about speed. I don't go to the track and i don't race around the streets like a douche! Just looking for a nice v8 car to cruise around in for the summer. I'll be %100 honest .. i have wanted an 89 IROC since i was about 10 and this 9k (And counting) was saved up for one.. but its been MANY months and i cant find a clean one. Mustang is really my only other option as i hate the 4th gen camaro look

IROC-Z's in clean condition come at a price my friend. There's an '88 305 "Players Challenge" car in Kamloops going for $7500 right now but it would have been ****kicked so bad you'd need the jaws of life to extricate the rather large boot from it's ass...

Wana hear something retarded? lol .. I passed on a MINT %100 stock blue 89 IROC 5speed with 90km on it. Why? because it was to nice. The guy was really desperate to sell it so i got him down to 6k! I lost sleep over it for a week and i just couldn't pull the trigger. I loved the car to much to daily it and it was right before last winter. There are so many mustangs around that i wont feel bad at all attempting (lol) to drive it drive it next winter if i decide to keep it.

Still think about that car from time to time lol

i would try to find a 94/95 5.0.

dont waste your time with the non-PI 2V 4.6.

btw...hop on that little ferry that crosses the sound (or whatever its called) and buy your car in america.

That's not a bad idea actually. But i would have to be %100 sure the car im going to see was in tip top shape (or hella cheap)

What are the beifits of the 5.0 over the non pi 4.6?

ya thats true. you would have to be pretty sure on the purchase.

the benefits of the 5.0 are the massive aftermarket (substantially bigger than 2V 4.6), simple design, and they are easier to work on. in the long run it will be a lot easier and cheaper to make the 5.0 fast then it would to make the non pi 2V fast.

plus the k member in the 5.0 can bolt in a bigger motor without modifications, while you would have to swap k members in the 4.6 to do the same thing. i also prefer the t5 in the 5.0 over the t45 in the 4.6 (non integrated bellhousing on t5), but thats more of a personal preference.

sorry if this kind of sounds like a rant. im just typing as things come to mind.

someone can feel free to chime in if i missed something.
