Message: [QUOTE="Johnrock, post: 163295, member: 16244"] FYI, 85 was the last year of the carb'ed stang, 86-88 used a fuel injection system, the air/fuel mixture controlled via an air speed meter, as opposed to the mass air meter of the 89 & later Mustangs. If you plan on doing anything to the motor on an 86-88, you should first convert it to the mass air unit, as the speed metered one does not compensate well for any flow changes. Having done that, your options are limited only by your wallet. The stock 302 heads are the most restrictive part of the motor, so if you want big hp numbers, be ready to spend some coin on TFS or Dart heads. I built an 89 302 that I autocrossed in SCCA E Street Prepared class, it was a very fun car to say the least. Hope to get another one for a project again someday. [/QUOTE]
