Cool 94 gt wishlist....dont know a ton about it all.

Ok, I dont know a lot about these parts but I do have a decent general knowledge of what it takes to make HP. I figure with this I could be around 400HP as I have heard amazing things about the air flow research heads and of course everyone knows about the other things on my list having potential... any comments, suggestions and so on would be great as I am wanting to get HP on a budget. I figure this is not overly expensive for the performance you can get out of these parts. I have the engine torn down to the block and will post some pics when I get a chance of my progress. Its time to build and im getting a little ahead of myself at times.

it isnt all about horsepower bud, i mean ya thats a good setup but dont always worry about the horse...go for heads, intake, cam (personally i like the Steeda #19 cam), then gears, and springs, good tires and then go for the other stuff

hanks for the input... and also the lack of input. Again I was kind o asking for some comments on those parts and what would be a good setup. Thanks to the one person who actually did this. It doesnt make his site any better when you post and get "mustang snobs" acting like you dont know anything. But hey youll have that everywhere you go. Again thanks for the input... Ill be holding of on posting on this site from here on out.

It seems as though you asked for ppl's opinions, then when you got them you didn't like what they had to say. But they were just being honest. You're basically talking about doing just a H/C/I package to your car hoping for 400 HP. Seems you haven't done the research you claim you have. If you had "a decent general knowledge of what it takes to make HP" you would know that combo won't get you close. Sorry you don't like the honest/blunt opinions you've asked for, but there are a lot of knowledgeable ppl here. maybe a better way to go about looking for info would be to just ask, "Hey, I'd like to make 400 HP, how would i go about it?" Seems simple enough. It's your choice whether you wish to post here, good luck in your decision.

^^^^^now that just doesn't make any sense!!!! if it's not about the hp then what are you left with?? = a slow car that you spent too much money trying to make it fast and it still isn't!! do it once and build it right
