    Got a New Stang (to me anyways)

    Well It's official, I now have a 1988 GT, 306, 5spd, 3.73 gears, holley 750 dp(I think) gotta get the numbers off the carb to be sure, BBK shorties and off road h pipe, flowmaster 40 mufflers and flowmaster gt tails. It's got lx tail lights and a short throw shifter. Also has the same wheels that were on my 88 vert. ROH Z's I believe 17's. It's also got a edelbrock super victor intake I believe, new radiator and electric fan. Already converted to the one wire alternator.

    Now the bad, it needs a makeover on the interior. It currently has no rear seats and it has the "PIMP LEAN" drivers seat. the heating system has been removed as far as duct work but I have another dash that has all the duct work. It needs painted all the clear coat has peeled off.

    It has a cowl hood but it uses the quarter turn fasteners ( zeus fasteners ?) and it isn't finished on the underside. I will be looking to get rid of it and finding a bolt on cowl hood.

    I'll have pics posted tomorrow, I have to go to where the car is sitting and adjust the rockers and drive it home.

    750 is a little bit too much carb.

    That is what I thought, I am not a fan of holley carbs, especially the older ones with the power valve issues. I will prolly be looking to sell the holley and get an edelbrock.

    A friend of mine who shoots pool on my APA team on thursday nights had it and just wanted to get rid of it. The paint leaves alot to be desired and the interior is ragged. It has not back seat and the fronts are trashed. I gave a grand for it. It has a MSD ingition and pro billet distributor. I need to find a 600-650 CFM carb for it its got a 750 dp on it and its way to much carb for the 306.
