[89converted]

My name is Jason & I live in the Denbigh area of Newport News, VA. This is my first post on this site and I've never owned anything but Hondas. Well, I made a switch and bought an 89 Mustang GT Convertible yesturday. Yeah, big change I know. I'm moving on from the "I only like hondas" stage in my life to the "I like cars in general" stage. Anyways, naturally, the 5.0 I bought wasn't stock, so here is the list of mods:

gt40heads
gt40 Intake Manifold
COnverted to Mass Air
Cold air intake
E-cam
BBK headers
Off Road H-pipe
Mac Cat-back
Aftermarket bigass Radiator w/ dual fans
Short Throw of some kind
Full Set of Autometer Ultra Light series gauges
4:10's out back with some other **** done to the rear end I know nothing of
Centerlines with 245 winston tires in the back & 165's up front. (up for trades, make offers)

I am seriously a complete idiot with this stuff. I know nothing at all about v8 in general. I know this car is supposed to be pretty fuckin quick but I doubt it runs any better then high 13's. I think it needs some tuning.

I am lookin for a good group of Ford guys that can steer me in the right direction with this thing and help me with mods, etc. Also, does anyone know of a good shop for tuning, etc in the 757 area.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

WELCOME to AFM!

Your '89 came with mass air, but yes it sounds lie you need some tweaking.

Read some of the very informative posts by other members and pay special attention to the trech articles.

Remember, you now have a car with POWER! Spelled
T-O-R-Q-U-E!

Practice [and many times the multiple!]

torque is great, but it seriously pulls terrible from 3500+ rpm. I am gonna get it on the dyno within a week or 2 and try to get someone to look at the timing, etc.

ok, car is for sale now, 2500 bucks takes it. Car has everything described above but I was lied to about the heads. Stock heads with roller rockers.
