Just got my my first Mustang!!!


Hello everyone I just bought my first Mustang. I bought a 1987 GT on ebay. I flew and picked it up and drove it 28 hrs home. I was pleasantly surprised at the condition. Pretty solid car for age and 270 000 kms. Was well looked after and everything works like new, undercarriage is solid with zero rust. Anyways I am already thinking of rebuilding the tired 5.0 which acually runs well but it is time. I am not planning to go to crazy but was kind of thinking would rebuild with stock pistons,crank,rods. Will probably upgrade cam to a E303. Plannin on keeping stock heads. Adding a BBK SSI intake and 75mm throttle body, 80 mm MAF. 24 pound injectors. Ive been doing some reading about upgrading from the speed density to the MAF. Any tips or ideas. Wondering how this setup will work and what kind of HP will make and if stock t5 will be OK. Will also do some suspension work and add some sort of subframe connectors, any ideas? t roof car. I figure this will be enough power for me for awhile and will be a significant upgrade over my tired 5.0.
