well in a few months my car will become a strictly strip/street car, my goals for the car is high 9's to mid 10s on spray. now my questions are how do i get there?? i dont know anything about 5.0s, im a camaro guy. as of now my car has a rebuilt stock motor,rebuilt trans with upgraded clutch, rebuilt rear with 3.73's. the motor has a cam,bbks, full msd, cold air intake,then normal stuff. my buddy ran it and ran a 14.1 spinning till third so im thinking its a low 13 sec. car if it had traction. i want to run at least a 200 shot of spray so i know i will need a built motor, any suggestions?? (stock block, boss block wht heads,cam) now as for the tranny i know my stock t-5 prolly culdnt handle the power right? so i would more than likely go to built auto, suggestions??(c4,c6 where to get them, how ti install them in a 5.0) also the rear end, would i be best off putting a 9" in there? i need help on all aspects of the car cause as i stated before i know nothing about mustangs. the car does have full suspension on it now..but i need some advice on wht motor,tranny,and rear end would bet suit my needs for my goals i have in mind. Thanks gregg

351 windsor stroked to a 408, or maybe even a big block. built c4 transmission, and built 8.8 rear

as for the rear a built 8.8 will last? so what should i do first to the rear end? upgraded axles,the posi and what else?? or do they sell complete boltins?

[BWAL]

it would probably be cheaper to build one yourself. the 8.8 rear can hold over 900hp if built right. you might even want to look into a spool for it if it will be seeing a whole lot of track time

look at my car, 10.70s @ 126 on DRAG RADIALS, i paid 1500 for the motor ( 351 flat tappet cam, dished pistons, 300 dollar windsor jr heads ) vr jr intake, 750 carb, c 4 3500 stall convertor, stock 8.8 with new clutches in the rear and 373 gears ( stock axles ) some suspension work and a 150 shot of nitrous , ( cheapie summit fuel system utilizing what is basically a holley blue pump )

well where did you get your tranny casue b4 i even put anymore performance parts in i want to mess with the tranny and get a c4 in there should i have one upgraded or do you think a stock one would be fine for my application?? also how hard is it to get it to fit?

Performance Automatic

k thanks man, as for the motor. do you think if i went with a boss 302 block punched it out to a 347 with an eagle forged rotating assembly, some gt-40 or afr heads and a nitrous cam with a 200-300shot i could get into the low 10's??

[86_Notch]

you don't need a boss block to go 10s, my buddy was running high 10s with a c4, 3000 stall, 373s, slicks, stock bottom end ( well a few versions ) ported stock heads, performer rpm intake , big cam, 750 carb and a 200 shot , altho he went thru his fair share of head gaskets and a couple of split blocks, which is why i always recommend a windsor swap, it's always cheaper and more reliable
