I just bought a 1994 ford mustang. It has the v6 and there is no rust on this car. Immaculate condition but needs a rear end and one cylinder is low compression but runs decent. I picked it up for 200 bux. I want to get the hp up on this car but keep it original so i want to leave the v6 in it. Where should i be lookin as far as parts and rebuild kits and aftermarket parts for this car

glad to hear you got yourself a stang

before modding it, you might to figure out why you have low compression in one of your cylinders.
a good thing to do for hp would be to do a split port head&intake swap from a 99-04 stang, you'd see about 40hp from that. doing that would be a good excuse to replace your head gaskets, if they havent been replaced already.

Most V6 have the 7.5 rear end, and GT's have the 8.8 rear end... It depends a lot of how much Hp are you looking for..
