in 94 (edit - it was 1996) i was at a ford dealership and was given some paperwork where you could order a new mustang and have a 427 put in it. i am looking for this paperwork now as i am sure i kept it (somewhere).

this was not through steeda/saleen or another tuner - it was through fomoco.

anyone else know anything about it. after finding some old paperwork - i was reminded and now want to see if any cars were actually ordered.

sometimes you dont realize what you have as i found several fliers that larry shinoda drew up for me on the boss by shinoda stangs as well as some 7up mustang papers from an old guy that won a 7up mustang from 7up and traded it in on a new crown vic...

 

hmmm....news to me. I would like to see that paperwork though...

 

as would i!

 

Me too. I was looking all over, since I just read this. There haven't been any hits that I have found though. Let us know if you find that paper.

 

ok - i found it!!!
the company was mustang motorsport out of dearborn, MI.
i was wrong about the date - it looks to be for the 1996 model year.
i will scan the sheets and post them soon

i will apologize in advance for the crappy copies as they were faxed to the dealer from the company.

 

heres most of the fax

 

Who is this "Mustang Motorsport" place?? That is some carzy cool stuff!!!

 

must be some shop that offered these packages.

 

i just remember the car dealer letting me in on the fax since i was friends with them and they liked giving me info for the mustang club. he was telling me that they could order the vehicles and sell them through the dealer

 

wow...this is pretty cool...I wonder if they ever built one of theese things? I would guess not since no one has ever heared of them...but it seems that they put a lot of work into getting these packages together...

 

i have a few more pages to scan - including a newspaper article (real short though). mostly the info is duplicated.

i, too, have wondered if one was ever built

 

omg omg omg thats awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hp? tq?

 

427 = 534hp @5700 rpm 556 tq.
nothing listed for the 429

 

This is awesome, never heard of it. I'd be interested to know if any were ever made.

 

me likey

Quote on one of those pages.

"Engine size will be a maximum of 494 cubic inches"

 

Hm... no one has owned up to buying one yet? Probably all in some rich guy's garrage...

 

...if any were built at all. remember - the prices listed were for the package price - above and beyond the GT 'starter' car

 

I think that anyone looking for a Mustang in the 50k range already wouldn't mind the "pocket change" for the GT starter... 50k 'stangs are pretty few and far between as it is.

 

There might have been a couple made at a dealership or did an engine swap on the car.
