don't do it. Never buy a mustang that has been modified unless it has aluminum heads.

Usually it is just some crap that people threw together from a junkyard.

i dont know this is probably one of the cleanest hatchbacks ive ever seen. hes asking 10,000 for the car so im hoping its not junk. But you may be right theres no telling!

Could be okay with it being fuel injected and a turbo kit to go with.( i quit reading after the heads) If it was carbed, i would say no for sure.

I made more power than that on a stock engine!!!

well that was on a crappy dyno with high humidity levels at about 90 in the building. it should be a little better. but i also like how my car handles dont know if i want to give that up.
