basically bypassed whatever it ran to, then came back to.
Yea everybody seems to not like the 96-98 models

Just Stick With 87-93 You Will Find 1 Dont Rush Into 1, Like I Stated B4 I Bought A Clean 91 With Bout 8000 Worth Aftermarket Shit On It Take Ur Time... My Car Wasn't Even 4 Sale It Was Sitting In A Detail Shop Parking Lot And Asked If It Was For Sale He Hazatated And Said Yeah Ok Wife Wants Me 2 Sale It Anyways... Bought It For 5ooo....and The Best Part They Only Made 221 In Burgandy With Black Interior In 91...so Just Take Ur Time
Theres one on Craigslist. LX V8 auto. 1XX,XXX white/ red interior. $2999. He wouldn't trade it for my Quad!
Nothing wrong with 96-98's other than they are slow as hell but hey atleast they sound good and make good torque :-D
All depends on what you're looking for. I'd buy a 96-98 100x over again for a fun DD. They sound good, get good MPG for a V8, and they are fun.
If you are making a track car, get something with a pushrod engine, a lot cheaper to mod in the long run.
The 94-95 GT's were weak as well but since they have the 5.0 it isn't too hard to get them running "right".
^^^^86-92 motors(v8) were 225hp, and the 93-95 gt's were only 215hp. and i think i read somewhere the 96-98 gt's were only 195hp.
take your time and buy what your looking for,not just something that pops out at you. yea you might find a cheap fox or mod car that needs some tlc(as most put it) but by the time you invest in fixing everything and modding it the way you want,you may have more in it. i dunno,it's just my .02 though

I'm pretty sure the 96 to 98 was 225 hp with no pi heads. They called it the red headed step child since it was the first for the 4.6 nobody liked the mod motor and the non-pi heads suck. But you can get some pi heads and then that's the best gt imo.
yes pi heads and intake conversion will definatly wake up that tired mod motor. another thing to look at on 96+ stangs is to make sure the intake has the aluminum crossover cooliant tube in the front. stock one was plastic and they break/crack easily.

does a supercharger really wake up a motor like a 98 and does it hurt the life of the engine and can you keep stock injectors in there with one. also can a car in Pa pass inspection with the battery in the trunk
