i have been offered a 95 5.0 mustang decently built perfect body and interior straight across for my celica..


i hate mustangs.

but i love v8's haha

so im stuck..

how much hp and trq does a 5.0 that year put out??

[Chhaos]

its got like the cobra throttle body and a bunch of other cams and stuff he said it ran the dyno out at 325hp

Not even close to 100 Horsepower per liter, gonna take A LOT to get there...embarassing.

Not like our Celicas are close to 100 hp per liter... unless you have a 3SGTE.

Anyway, I just drove my friends 1996 Mustang GT. It's the one with the 4.6. Personally I liked it but it felt completely different from the Celica. It feels like it wouldn't handle nearly as well. But it is also nice to have the power right there that my Celica doesn't have. If I were to go with a GT, I would get a 4.6. I just like that engine better, especially the way it sounds. In the end though, I look at you making the choice like looking at someone making a mod. If you like it, do it. It's your decision and you are the one that has to live with it.

our celicas? I can tell you that my other celica makes DAMN near 100hp per liter and this one will make damn WELL OVER 100 hp per liter in about a month. Also, the third car in my garage, same story, and ALL of them get better than 25 MPG. I guess I just dont understand what's so great about a way underpowered V8 with horrible gas mileage.
