Default 1989 Ford Mustang GT 8cyl. 5.0L

Anyone know a site that has trickflow h/c/i, long tube headers, 80mm throttle body, 76/80mm MAF, 3.73/3.90/4.10 gears+installation kit (including bearing set and whatnot)?


can someone please put my thinking to rest, there ARE long tube headers for 1989 mustang GT right?

Yeah. Ebay.com

Don't do the gears yourself, gears are a lot more complicated than one may think. You'll wear them out in no time flat, get them installed by a shop.

Yah, there are long tubes for them but you'd need the newer, smaller starter in order for them to fit

80mm is WAY too big by the way... it will run like crap. get about a 73mm MAF in front of a 70mm TB

+1 i did mine but thats because i have a press for the bearings and all the tools for setting bearing pre load and ring gear runnout, if you have any doubt on how to do any of those things then dont do it ur self or it may be bye bye rear end

i don't want to spend that much on h/c/i and i can well buy individuals off a site and it would be cheaper..
