i have a 96 gt vert, automatic, and this guy wants to trade me an 89 lx, with the 5.0 HO, and his mods are BBK CAI, e303 Cam, GT 40 heads, new forged pistons, and rods, a computer remap (have no clue what that is ) the only problem is that it needs a new tranny. he says his numbers are about 370rwhp and 400lb/ft torque...do you guys think this is a good deal? and are those numbers accurate? i dont know too much about the 5.0's so any help is greatly appreciated...

also, with the forged pistons and rods, is that safe, for say supercharging the engine?

hmm leme think.....YEA jump on it before he realizes how much or a tart he is.

mattdel

hell no those number are way off

mattdel why do u say the numbers are off? j/w


ootcamitica do those numbers sound right to you?

That donkey is taking you for a wagon ride.

370 RWHP......................No days. Maybe 300 at the most.

T-5s are pretty cheap to find though so maybe a re-build with those MODs would be OK

How much are you guys trading for? You defiantly need to get some $$ on top of that trade..........

+1, he MIGHT, and i strongly emphisize MIGHT, 260rwhp. and maybe close to 300ft/lbs

now if the heads are thumper ported and he has 1.70rr's and a nice upper and lower intake and all the other supporting mods he might have around 300-310rwhp and 340-350ft/lbs.

does the car have nitrous?

mattdel

370 rwhp is about 440-460 crank hp. no way. not without forced induction, on those heads

lol, yeah, I'm runnin the same set up GT-40 heads, Edelbrock Performer Intake, BBK Long Tube's, and a e303 cam, and I'm pushing 270 rwhp and that was in cali. with more oxygen. He's ****ing you over

ghsbaseball22

no it doesnt have nitrous...how much do you think i could get cash-wise on top of the trade?
