Capri 5.0 Vs. GT 5.0
#4
RE: Capri 5.0 Vs. GT 5.0
I have a "86 Capri 5.0 / 5 speed manual
Hum......
Front end is different, "box" fenders all around. Rear end is different, plus I have a "Bubble" Back Windshield"
Interior is identical, chassis is Identical,
Engine, Identical to 86 5.0
I have speed density, fuel injection. Wheels are "Phone Dial/ten hole" I have read the heads are not good for modifications(Internal mods). I have a larger throttle body, phelum spacer, JBA headers. etc. Still easy to work on......I am keeping her.
True dual exhaust, ......
I believe the 86 Capri was rated around 205 hp due to weight difference(due to rear glass). But I have read the Capri was "more" aerodymatic due to rear glass.
I have around 175K on the original V-8. With no problems. Just worn out Silver paint.
