How many miles are on the car? What condition is the drivetrain in? If
you've got $3,000 to blow.. I'd look into supercharging the car... maybe 6-9psi intercooled. It's a 302 & I know that blowers for 302's are generally less expensive than those for 281's.. check http://www.jegs.com/ http://www.summitracing.com/ http://www.ebay.com/ (DO NOT GET ELECTRIC SUPERCHARGER LOL!). I'd look into a Vortech or Paxton supercharger for that price range. Avoid Powerdyne!! If you can fork over more, I'd say Kenne-Bell supercharger hands down. If supercharging isn't the route you want to go... there are several engine options you have (others will chime in). You could also build the suspension quite a bit. Or, my favorite option, send me the money =). -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers (self-installed woohoo) Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors Aluminum adjustable clutch quadrant "Jeffery Privott" > wrote in message ... > Can someone tell me what should be the first few steps taken towards adding > power to a 94 gt convertable.

If you have the money to spend, by all means, supercharge it!
the 3.73's are a good idea. the guys will tell you about subs and braces. Kate 98 Cobra Drop Top With a personal touch... or two.

Depending on the type of blower you select, and what you plan on using the car for, you may not want to go with 3.73s. A Roots type + street tires + 3.73s = equals lots of tire smoke.

Roots or twin-screw at that! 3.73's + street tires = lots of tire spin for
me right now... damn tires are bald. I need new ones, but can't afford 'em. I'm gonna save up a bit to get some real good ones this time around. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers (self-installed woohoo) Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors Aluminum adjustable clutch quadrant > wrote in message oups.com... > SVTKate wrote: > > If you have the money to spend, by all means, supercharge it! > > the 3.73's are a good idea. > > Depending on the type of blower you select, and what you plan on using > the car for, you may not want to go with 3.73s. > > A Roots type + street tires + 3.73s = equals lots of tire smoke. > > Patrick > '93 Cobra > '83 LTD > > > "Jeffery Privott" > wrote in message > > ... > > | Can someone tell me what should be the first few steps taken > towards > > adding > > | power to a 94 gt convertable.

$3000.00's FOR HORSES
Can someone tell me what should be the first few steps taken towards adding
power to a 94 gt convertable. I have a very few goodies already and looking at dropping around $3000.00 in the next 2 weeks on the car. I currently have a cold air intake, 40 series flowmaster's, mac headers, and this week looking at 373's installed. All advice is greatly appreciated. Ninja, |
