RE: looking to buy a 1991 5.0
depends on where you want to go... a mustang is a blank canvas when it comes to modding...
do you want a corner carver, autocross car, 1/4 mile monster, road race car, rally car (one guy here or on another forum rally races with a 5.0 notch)
there are so many ways you can go, you can spend 5,000 dollars or even 25,000 dollars.....

Replacing all the fluids is a good start.
Skip the flowmasters and go with something else.
Not sure how much cash you got but for power some things you can do are heads, cam, u/l manifold, rockers, tb, maf, cai, headers, h pipe, catback, etc.
Some basic suspension odds are u/l control arms, shocks, struts, front & rear springs, subframes, etc. and if you want to take it a little further you can go with a tubular front suspension setup (k member and a arms), shave tons of weight & better handling.
