need help. 5.0 mods?

[fryingricecobra]

Hey guys,

I am posting this for a friend. I know little about the 5.0's. I didn't get into Mustangs until 96 so I am a 4.6 guy.

He is wanting to upgrade with a nitrous system possibly and/or other mods. What route would you guys go with this motor.
He wants straight line performance out of it.
Its a Gt not a Cobra

Thanks in Advance,
Nick

What cam does he have? Whats the lift? I personally would go all motor, thats what i am doing. Ive seen 5.0's with nitrous and they haul. But ive seen all motor 5.0's haul ass too. Id recommend him to get a spec stage II clutch.

well, to take what he's got and really move with it, I would invest in a set up edelbrock performer heads, X-303 cam (works well with that combo) some longtubes, matching x-pipe, and an adjustable 75-150 shot. He can adjust his horspower injection as he upgrades his fuel system, ignition, etc etc. you can run 75 all day long on that setup and run 12's on street tires.
