85 5.0 Mustangs
What makes the 85 Fox body 5.0 combo so good, that it hold 7 stock records. And why no SA records ?
and where are the 88,89,90s fuel injected Mustangs ? |

Slickfoot, 1985 was the last year of the carburated 5.0 Mustang. It used a Holley 4-barrel carb and are stick only. The automatic version was fuel injected.

Re: 85 5.0 Mustangs
Gary Summers makes this combo look easy, if it was easy everbody would be doing it. Looks like alot of hard work and testing that he does, my hats off to him. Wish my car was that fast. I dont think it is just a stick thing put a good C4 in it, it would still fly. The later fox bodys are easy to get under the index say .5 -.6 undar, but bad *** fast is all cubic dollars on a dyno and parts. Just like any other combo.

I think the '85 is a good combination also. There have been a handful of them over the years in Stock and SS, and I think that all of them have run well. |

Anyof the '87-'93 5.0 HO combinations (they're all very similar, if not the same from '87 to '93) are good, either with a stick or an automatic! |

83-84 CFI 5.0 automatics are way over factored. Too high for that tiny CFI throttle body. 1985 4 bbl Mustang 5.0 combo had the hydraulic roller cam and the heads were better than the 83-84 4 bbl Mustang. |
