    New Guy.....Don't have a Mustang, but it's Ford Powered??????

    Hey, Just joined, I am in Beaver County. I don't have a Mustang, but I bought a 5.0 Miata. I don't have it yet, but I'm excited.....2450 pounds with a 90 5.0 with headers, explorer intake & a 5 speed. I think it might scoot.

    I also have a 67 4 speed XR7 Cougar...talk about "Old School".

    Thanks for having me, Tim

    I think 5.0 Miatas are just wicked.

    Oh, old school? '66 Cyclone with a 390 4-speed!

    Wouldn't have bought it near as cheap! And......I think it's "truer" to the Sunbeam Tiger Thing.

    Not under steering...with all that power and the short wheelbase I figured the rear end would get really happy really quick. A-la Cobras and Tigers.
