Got a new Car, need info from fox experts


Hello well i got a new car. Its an 88 lx four banger, but they swapped it for a 5.0 ho, and 5.0 tranny. It has pulleys, cai, yokohama drag tires, catted h pipe, flowmaster exhaust, cowl hood w/ racing stripes, new springs, suspension, calipers, plugs,wires, headers, 20,000 miles on the motor and, 70,000 odometer, and its a vert. My first question is how many hp is this at, and what kind of money is this worth? And the other question is can i swap the gt spedometer for the lx? I topped out the spedometer on the highway because its like 85mph lol. And yeah its great to buy cars from mechanics because they dont skimp on performance.

x2. value is largely dependent on location, but around here you could get $4-5K depending on the overall condition

You can swap, gauges, I would recomend one from an 89 mustang with the 140mph. All eclectrical components will still work.
