They appeared in the May 2002 issue of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. That is where I saw them. Beautiful cars.

Re: 85 5.0 Mustangs
 
Good luck on your build. I ran my 85 at Milan last week. My motor is a stocker that I bought for $250 to get the car on the road. My buddy gave me some 1.7 roller rockers so I put those on. It also has a 1/2" intake spacer. I call it my wanna-be stocker. Its not fancy or a show car by any means but I have fun with it. It's a pretty simple setup in my opinion. The DA was about -100' on this pass. I included a link at the bottom which is a video of my car. Also, I have a few other ideas for it so it should be in the 12's soon- without touching the motor. It weighs 2760lbs race ready minus driver.

It went:
1.81-60'
5.293-330'
7.724-594
8.268 @ 82.71mph-660'
12.61-1254'
13.05 @ 101.45-1320'
