New 5.0 owner


Hey guys I am new to the 5.0 world. I recently aquirred a nice 95 gt that was a one owner car, I am looking to mod the car, I was wanting yalls opinion on where to start. The only thing the car has done is a short throw and exhaust. So any input is greatly appreciated, I could just search this stuff but I know you guys have already been there done that and could be of more real help, again thanks

If I were you the first thing I would do is get either 3.73 gears or 4.10s for the rear differential. They give you the biggest bang for your buck...

Welcome to he forum. As others have suggested, the best bang per buck mod to start with is a 3.73:1 ring & pinion and I was very happy after I did the same. Other starter mods you can do:

Cold air intake
Larger bore MAF
Larger bore throttle body
Underdrive pulleys
Headers
Offroad or catted H-pipe or X-pipe
Performance catbacks

Once you've done these "phase 1" mods, you could move on to "phase 2" which is heads/cam/intake or HCI. Phase 2 requires other supporting mods such as higher flow fuel pump, larger injectors, and a computer reprogram.
Alternatively, you might decide to add forced induction (supercharger, turbos, or nitrous) or add more engine displacement (331 or 347ci stroker).
So many choices!
