DO those lil things before ya go for big..that alone should make ricers eat ur rubber. go w/ a 75 mm tb if u dont care about gas and if u plan on supercharging or turboing the car....also get rid of ur stock ignition i have an 89 gt as well and the points set up has to go plus its fairly easy www.summitracing.org.... as well as upgrade ur wires to msd as well as ur plugs i recommend NGK a lil more expensive but no probs in fouling em w/ nos or supercharger.... if ya stay single and dont get tickets save for a procharger supercharger but get basics done first before u start there if ya need i can send a parts list to beef up the bottom end of the motor.

Hi:</P>
Good luck with your 89 GT I just bought one too, its going in for paint next week so not sure how it will come out, everybody cringes when I tell them I am taking it to Maaco!!, but what the hell its an 89 and im not going to go crazy!.</P>
I did put a k&N Filter in it and changed the Plugs, Wires and Cap/Rotor which are all Ford Racing, I am putting in a Ford Racing Coil too and finishing up with a MAC Pro-Chamber and some Tips, I will let you know how I get on....Limey</P>
