Would like to add those with a spring upgrade and some milling to bring compression up along with a factory H.O. Local salvage yard has some low mileage gt40 heads I can pick up for $200 a set. Heres a run down of what I have been thinking. 5.0's (you can tell when you hit the pedal) and speed density. I have searched the forums here and other sites to learn more about these 5.0 T-Birds and found that they are 155hp non H.O. The car currently has some brake problems (pedal slowly sinks to floor) that I am working on but other than that seems to be a pretty solid car. After looking at the car and the shape it is in for a few weeks I have been toying with the idea of maybe doing a few mods and see where this thing goes. Originally I was going to sell the T-bird and a 1988 suburban i have (that I picked up in another deal) to purchase another fox or sn95 car. I know that a Thunderbird is not exactly designed with racing in mind but I picked this car up in a trade deal. The last time I have owned any kind of sports car was 2012 and I am making an attempt to return to the crowd. I am returning to corral but this time not as a mustang owner.
