as the title says i am looking at a 1990 mustang gt with, so he says 88000 miles. 10000 miles ago he put in a rebuilt and built 5.0 and 5 speed tranny at about 325 HP. it has a decent sized dent in the drivers door and the title is still clear though. has a few rust holes but none under oddly.. Florida car lol. He says he has 7000 in the drive train and i got him down to 2800 bucks. If i got it, it wouldn't be a daily driver just a weekend toy. I checked it out and it ran and drove really good and he didn't build the motor himself. took it somewhere to do it. what do you guys think? thanks in advance and sorry for the long post

ask him how he came up with 325 hp??

Sniperinhisname

he built it up pretty good. we took it for a test ride and it was faster than my 2000 gt ever thought about being. he said he had 7000 in the motor and tranny

how is it built??

Sniperinhisname

roller motor, high performance cam, and crank. sittin just idleing it would rock the car with a cam lope lol

Does he have any of the paper work showing what was done to the engine? That's the first thing I would want to see.......If no ask him how long ago it was done and than have him give you the name of the shop that built the engine and go ask them some ??'s Any pics?

Sniperinhisname

i don't know about the papers. he said he got it done in Florida and put about 10000 miles on it. it was faster than i stock 5.0 i know that much. but all in all do you guys think it is worth it?

what heads, cam and intake,?? lopey cam with stock heads and intake if that's what it has is just noise

Sniperinhisname

looked stock. it did have some very nice get up and go. i would think it would be worth 2800 do you?

mjr46

with stock heads and intake it won't be anywhere close to 300rwhp, but without pics, guessing at value is tough, but decent shape 2800 wouldn't be bad
