Default the 95 compared to foxbody



Im thinking maybe swapping my 5.0 of my car that was totalled into a 94 or 95 mustang body. Is this a good idea? The only reason I would want to do this is I like the look of it. I don't mind the weight change and as long as the parts are interchangable I don't mind. If I take parts off my old 5.0 (heads, intake, cam, induction, headers, pipes, mufflers, ignition) will they all fit and perform the same as on the 95 5.0? </P>


If its a pain in the ass to do even though they are the same engines, I'll stick with the fox body, but I want to know what I can do with a 94-95 body.</P>

Vfast, if you get a tweecer or eec tuner, cant you fix the computer problem rather easily? I have a 95 GT and I have driven my rfiends 92 LX and I dont thinkthe Comps make that huge of a difference, atleast not enough to not even think of getting one. My vote is that most Stangs around here are foxes, so go for what you like the looks of....even if it is a half a second slower you can fix that.

Well If I find a nice 95 body id throw in my 5.0 that was just "totalled" but how much different is it to use all my old bolt ons and dropping in the 88 5.0 ? Im woried about my 88 parts not fitting in the 95 if and when i start switching these parts over.

I have a 94 GT,and I dont care what anyone says about the 94 or95 stangs,my car is not slow by far, nor do I have any major problems with anything that I dont break myself and as far as the engine 125,000 miles and it has not given me any probs. So just because they had 205hp from the factoryor whatever they had in 94 and 95witch was9 or10 years ago by the waythey suck. I guess if I had 500 HP in my stang the new cobra would be a piece of sh*t because it only had 400 HP from the factory. Its all in the eye of the owner that is why people even buy mini vans because they like them. So if apersonwants to buy a car and putin a engine help them out dont say Idont like that car who gives a sh*t unless you are paying for it.</P>


SORRY just rubbed me the wrong way.<IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0"></P>

Can someone do me a favor and shed some more light on my original question? If I buy a 94-95 5.0, how easy or hard will it be to switch over my salvagable parts like heads, intake cam, ignition, exhaust and all that stuff. All these parts are bought for my 88 which is now wrecked. </P>


I understand the computer "suck" but it seems like that's nor eal reason to not buy one. How do they "suck" anyway? How hard is it to swap my computer from my wrecked 88 or any foxbody for that matter, to the 95?</P><edited><editID>Milky</editID><editDate>38020.9513773148</editDate></edited>
