5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
i went from stock cats to no cats, and all i can say is i wont put cats on the car again except for emissions time. yea you get a little smell, but only when im really gettin in to it... and ill be honest... gotta love that smell too, lol. goes great w. the whole 5.0 thing and the whole loud mean car thing, lol.
honestly sound-wise i went from stock headers and h-pipe (4 cats) to new bbk headers and o/r h-pipe. it sounded exactly the same just deeper and more throaty. it wouldnt rumble till like 2200 rpm's with the stock stuff. now it will rumble at like 1000 rpm's. sounds soooo badass
