i've bought 2 5.0s off ebay in less that 5 months.. both are EXACTLy what said. you just gotta ask alot and see alot of pictues of everything
I checked out mine in person since it was only 10 minutes away and everything seemed good so I bought it. Then a week or two later the heater core popped and I think the head gaskets might be junk. I still got a good deal on it but wasnt expecting that stuff.
Everything else is fine with the car though.

those people dont know what 290rwhp feels like then.

a stock headed engine will not make more than 240-250rwhp, unless they are ported thumper heads.

I had ported e-7 heads a b-303 cam, and a pro-products intake and made 246rwhp and 302ft/lbs


those 3" pipes are going to kill your low end torque.



now I have afr185 heads, same cam, rpm2 intake full msd and all the supporting mods, and made 305rwhp and 315ft/lbs


I would guess you have 220rwhp because of the overly large pipes, and flowjunkers.

You definately have to put a LX front bumper cover on that thing, It looks pretty awkward right now
