thanks everybody..my dad works at gm my wife works at gm and i used to work at gm (got transfered to missouri and had to
quit to come home to michigan)..so fords have always been the forbidden fruit so to speak.. there was a time when i was home on leave from
the marine corps i went and test drove a mustang(around 91) brought it home to show my mom and when the salesman got out of the
car my dad doused him with the hose and had a few words for him..anyway i finally got up the nerve to just get one. and i love it.
pretty stock it was converted to maf but i switched it back because im more familier with speed density(most gms are)
cai , headers from 87 up, under drive pulleys, off road pipe and cat back,hurst shifter and a fms clutch kit..ive done all this it was stock
except for the maf conversion when i got it off ebay.

Looks sweet and I've got an 86 convert as well, so just let me know if there is anything I might be able to help with.
