1st off read this
https://mustangforums.com/forum/5-0l...bers-read.html
2nd anyone who claims "around 500 hp" is full of shyt. Anyone who has the amount of work needed to get that much power has been to a dyno. $10 says the car does not even make 350 to the tires.

Except for the fact that he does state it is a 5.0 with 80,000 original miles. It reminds me a guy I talked to in school who tried telling me that he had a 306 with a trick flow top end kit and ran 360hp to the wheels on the dyno N/A. This guy also tried telling me a 85GT had 285hp stock.......HAHAHAHAHAHAHA 185 maybe
