I have a 95 5.0 that I track on fun nights at the strip a couple hours from me. Trick flow intake, bigger throttle body(can't remember what size), heads, cam, tune, has spray but I dont use it. With a bad clutch and bald street tires I was at 14.0 1/4 mile after I bumped timing up bc I realized it was set back for spray. Duh. Was pissing me off before I figured it out though couldn't get under 15 secs and I knew it could go faster. Anyways I only got 2 runs with my timing bumped up with a passenger before I got a tick, but this year planning on low 13s with new tires and clutch by my self.(side note just pulled intake and valve covers off over the weekend looking for the tick, stupid rocker arm got a little sideways and that's all it was). Do the 5.0 throw some bolt on parts on then have some fun!

Like I said before you can buy a 90's 5.0 mustang pretty cheap now, any other reason you want to spend the extra time and money on doing a swap?
