v6 97 firebird or 94 5.0 5 speed gt stang

**jd1666** · 05-08-2008, 11:11 AM

which should i do, i want better performance and i no the stang will and can get alot more parts in it and twin turbos. im not sure if it will be worth it or just stick with new exhaust, cold air intake, reprogram and slap a twins on the v6 what do you guys think

**basballny2** · 05-08-2008, 12:32 PM

id say go with the stang

**Sleeper101** · 05-08-2008, 12:48 PM

Sell them both and get a Honda!!! Gas is getting too expensive. Unless your building a track car!! Then I say Gut your trans am and build a mean twin turbo setup on a small block. Unless you have money Lots of money the v6 is just not worth it.

Ditto.

A nice LT1 should be about the same price as the Stang.

If I was going to buy a 5.0 Ford, I'd go with a LX Notchback.

But if it's stang vs. V6 Bird, go with the Stang.

Stang will be faster for cheaper.

id also go with an lt1 camaro first..... but out of the two... if it is a nice gt.. id go with it.... will be a little bit faster, especially after modding.. and will sound 10x's better.

a 94 gt does not have 305hp. nowhere near that. i was able to beat bolt on ones when I was stock. lt1's are quick

rapter34 · 05-08-2008, 07:23 PM

what??? a stock 94 mustang GT has 215 hp woth 288 ft lbs. not to mention more drivetrail loss than a LT1. the LT1 stock in 94 had 275 HP with 325 ft lbs. not even a close race.

**jd1666** · 05-08-2008, 07:23 PM

it's easy because the motor is much more like a 1st gen chevy motor and for me that makes it easier to work on. I have built a couple of 1st gen chevy motors. my 92 z28, my old boat's motor, and my uncle's 82 truck. to me being alot more like a 1st gen motor makes it easier to make power. you do the same things, but it's easier to work on for someone who has worked with 1st gen motors, and it's cheaper to get parts for. I don't even know what you have done to your car. no reason not to have a fun run at the drag strip. lol.

if you got the money go with an ls1. you will enjoy it alot more initially and they look 10times better.
