Hi guys just saying hi from Edmonton Alta and just registered into this wonderful forum' im looking at buying my first 5.0 but need some info when looking for this kinda car ' is there anything i should know before buying a 5.0. Iv owned a truck my who life and was wanting abit more giddyUp and go so to all you mustang owners out there any help would be appreciated' thanks . Oh heres one i was checking out . Any questions i should ask before buying http://www.canadatrader.com/result/d...8&pgno=1&srt=1
Looks good man.. things i do is check for leaks test drive it do a visual of all vacuum lines visually view/sniff the dipstick for burnt oil fumes, then check out radiator when cold lol making sure theres no oil in radiator or coolant in the oil for a headgasket problem any idea that mileage in miles? not sure the km system? If the guy really wants to sell it he wont have any problem with you taking a 20 min or so test drive which i would really do if all checks out and runs as normal it would be worth buying, maybe though you can get him to lower the price a bit worth a try after all its 16 yrs old like mine almost ,for me 6500 it better have a blower too. BTW my brother works for auto trader if anyone is interested in them or questions etc. 6500 canadian or? 6500 if shania twain that hot little girl from canada was selling it lol. depends on your budget bro and how much you want to spend! P.S. lol get me shania's number i wanna call her up! lmao! hot baby!! goodluck man, if ya buy it the fellas in here can tell ya how to make it wicked fast if thats your style!! it will giddy up! lol my judgement is if the guy selling is a 17 yr old kid i might be wary/walk away if its an adult owned miles then alot better chance it was cared for. and any history reciepts/records of maintenance says alot as proof of how it was cared for. only say that because the mustang i own i bought when was 18 so i know how they/me drove em at that age lol had it 11 yrs now. i gonna quit looking at that picture before i want to buy it lol let us know if ya bring her home!
Thats alot of miles on the odometer for that much cash. i would offer $4000 to $5000 tops. i got my 92 lx from a dealer for $6600, it had 72 thousand on the odometer.

Mustanghelper good lookin' out brother' yeah im not sure what odometer km's translates into for the measurement we use here in the states? i think it's 1.6km to 1 mile not sure. Mustanghelper had a question bro how you like them AFR 185's sounds like an awesome head just wanted the actual feedback from an owner of em what ya like dont like bout em,? its my next project if there worth buyin then a tremec. anyway maybe the other stangers can give some feedback for this guy wanting to buy that mustang for a better deal and what to look for also.

The heads make good power. they are right on as far as port to port size. they flow well , you could touch them up to make more power. I didn't on mine. My complaint is that the some of the rockers make a tapping noise. Even after I had them adjusted the second time. The lifters that came with them bleed down to quickly. In my opinion a better set of lifters , and a better set of rockers is in order. My rockers are dss rockers I don't think they are that good to heavy. Any suggestions on the rocker noise?
