5.0L (1979-1995) Mustang Technical 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.

Need some more info on initial mods.

Default Need some more info on initial mods.

So I was reading about some of the first mods to do... but there wasn't much detail. What are some things that I should do... especially because the car has high km's. Do you guys suggest getting the injectors cleaned and flow-tested and all that... or are they just cheaper to replace.... I'm more used to expensive import parts. Also... how much for the larger fuel pump and MAF? Any idea and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Adrian

Do a tune first off, dist cap, wires, plugs, fuel filter, air filter and oil change with oil filter. Then adjust your timing from 10 degrees to maybe 12 or 14. If you do the timing you will have to use a minimum of 91 octane gas. Then do the rear diff. gears and go with 3.55 or 3.73. Unless you have an auto I would recommend 4.10, dont forget the speedo gear recalibration. headers, x-pipe and catback along with a cold air intake. That would be an awesome start.
