I sold my mustang a little while ago, and it is killing me! I thought I could do without a musclecar but I was wrong so I picked up a new toy. 91 Trans am. Blue, t-tops, 305 which is gone now, and I am on the search for an LS2. Now, here is the best part.... I got the car for $254.00. A friend of a friends' wife said it had to go, and that is what he had paid for a starter install last year so thats what he wanted. lol

Started tearing her apart. Don't have a ton of $ now since I just bought a boat, and go on vacation next month, but I will update this as I can.

Sorry for the quality, I used my phone.

Hey also if i didnt tell you at work (salvage yard for muscle cars) we are well known for having the best engines, best service and warrenties availible. We have Lt1's, Ls1's, Hemi's, Ls2's, and one Supercharged LS6. They are in and out everyday sales for LS2s are so high its ridiculous. If your looking for an LS2 and tranny packaged up and sent to your house, throw me a PM, name is Cleveland Pick-A-Part..They have a website too, check it out. but an LS2 in that thing is going to be sick, im going to sell both of my birds for a new bird or t/a or camaro

And I notice how you didn't even comment on the Mustang I posted on the first page, but have done nothing but talk crap. I respect your opinion, hell, I love that you are a Ford guy, we are a dieing breed it seems like. But you said you piece multiple times now. Lets move on now. I bet you hate it anytime you say you are a Ford guy and everyone talks crap about Ford, and laughs. This is my 3rd Trans Am, and I have had 4 Mustangs. Do I prefer the mustang, hell yeah, but if you pass up a one owner for $254, then you are an idiot. You have made 20 some posts, and are already trying to start crap... not a good way to start. That said, if you want to add to this thread, then lets see some Stangs you have owned!

Sorry, didnt mean to get your panties in a twist!! I did not realize I was offending anyone just haveing a little fun and keeping it amusing? I was not trying to start any crap. I will remember to refrain from any prejudice comments about any year make or model of vehicle since some of us dont have a sense of humor! Sorry for expressing my opinions. Bash fords all you want I honestly will not care.

Here is an old pick of my 3rd mustang before my 03 Cobra. It is nothing special but did run pretty good for what it was and for me putting the whole thing together from scratch. The low resolution pic does the color no justice

1989 Mustang GT Full interior deiven 50 miles daily back and forth to work, drove to Florida from Indiana and back.
351w stock crank rods and forged flattop pistons, 10.5:1 Compression
Fox Lake stage 2 ported TFS heads
Comp cam
TFS 351w intake
30lb injectors
75mm T-body
Pro m 77 mass air
Tremec 3550 tranny w/ spec clutch
3.73 gears

10.8@125mph 1.52 60ft 3200lbs without driver no power adder

New project(almost done) 364 twin turbo 93 coupe 8's???:grr:

Thanks for the heads up! I went to the website, and requested a quote for packages on the LT1/LS1/LS2 including auto tranny, and wiring/computer. I am looking forward to hearing back from them.
