What is everyones opinions 94-95 vs 96-98. Pros and cons? I have found a nice 95 with gt40 heads cam exhaust etc.... but whatever i get will be my daily driver so I dont want something that sucks down the gas. I really like the 4.6l but I dont want something slower than what I had. How much faster is the new edge vs the sn95 stock for stock?

The new edge GT's had a 35 to 45 horsepower edge over the 94-98 GT's and I don't think there was a huge difference in torque either, again with the newer style having a small edge.
Older GT's like the 94-98 do possibly have a longer pinion gear like a 2.73 or 3.08 compared to the 3.27's on the 99-04 GT's, so with those two combined you will notice a seat of the pants difference between stock vehicles.

If you don't have any insurance on it, then I would try to part out anything of value, then scrap it. If the engine is/was running, it's worth something as a rebuildable core. Yes, you could use the heads and intake as a PI swap on a 96-98. As for me, I'd avoid 94-95's. Worse gas mileage, more limited available parts, etc. If you wanted a 5.0, I'd get a fox.

Most of the cars I am looking at are bolt on 5.0's or stock 4.6's. I am planning on running the 1/4 mile this spring but it will also be my dd. The main thing I want is something faster than my bro-in-laws 350z. My 04 was just a tad faster than his car. What times will a bolt on 5.0 94-95 run compared to 96-98 4.6? My wife is ok just a little bumped up. I will post some links of the cars I am looking at.
