5.0 vs any tuner
whats so great about the 5.0? im most certainly not saying i dont like it (im rebuilding one as we speak) but what sets it apart from those tuners running around? it seems like they just put a lil more juicein their turbos and they're off.. at my school mustangs are strongglyy hated and tuners with turbos are whats mainly rolling around. infact people hate me in my school just because i love mustangs and when they ask whats so much greater in a 5.0 mustang than their high boost 4 bangers all i can really say is torque and idk wat else to say. so i just wanted to hear why you guys think that the5.0 is great
(btw my mustang WILL have when i put it back together- al. ported and polished heads, E303 cam, 1.6 roller rockers, trick flow EFI manifold, 65mm throttle body, 24lb injectors, not sure on size of maf and it will be dyno tuned wit a chip, will i be able to smoke anybody? or will it be the other way around?)

COST!! you can build a stang a lot cheaper you ever try to build a 500hp weed wacker the rods and crank for one of those rice rockets is double that of a mustang. with your build of course you'll be able to beat something but somebody who has more money in their motorthan you will always have the faster car. there's always somebody bigger faster and better than my ride!!

ITs a 5.0 thats why, I remember growing up with the 5.0's it just happend to be my generation of mustang and to me the 5.0 will always have a place in ford history. At that time they were badass and still are. My opinion!

cheap to mod, RWD, lotsa torque, awesome potential.... of course cars with forced induction pick up alot of power easily with a few simple mods, but hey you can always get an 03/04 cobra if you want to go that route.
