Are you going with an auto or 5/6-spd? Are you going to run carbed or injected?

yeah the t5 wouldn't be my first choice but it's brand new and the price was right (free). if i break it down the road it's no big deal, easy swap, kiddie ****

If it's just your cruiser, the t-5 should be fine... Just know that it wont enjoy much abuse.

I understand that but for a car like that I prefer to see the stock 5.0 in there. I really enjoy cars that are stock if they are going to be taken to shows but that is my opinion.
I am sure it will turn out great though

I understand where you are coming from sorta kinda....I mean yes it is very clean but if you look at his other car its no 1/2 ass sled...I think it will be bad ass and he will have the stock motor so why the hell not....now if it was something like a cobra or cobra r with that low miles and that clean then yeah I would say dont chop it up....but its not like we are ever gonna see a normal fox roll through Barrett-Jackson for 100 grand anytime in any of our lives...

I prefer a really good looking stock car than a fast one. Someone will always be faster than you (not directing toward you personally but just in general)
He has some very nice rides that I would gladly take off his hands anyday <hint> <hint> but I really like stock looking cars. Plus who listens to anyone with only a half grilled cheese sandwich (and I dont mean only half a sandwich but your grilled cheese only looked half cooked)?? LoL

yeah the stock motor was gone for some reason, can't imagine why on a 14k car but it will be nice with a Bennett motor in it. the motor should arrive next week, tranny should be done this week.the aeromotive fuel system should be here tomorrow. i have my injectors and meter, just lacking a throttle body and a zero balance flywheel. probably a few odds and ends too

89lx347 What I ment was, that although it's just a show car, that motor isn't an anchor by all means. So if re rips on it with that t-5.... buh bye. But since he wants it a show car, I see it as a smart move. All it has to do is get a to b and withstand a couple wot's I'm sure. Nice car bro.
