alright, unfourtionatly i cant take my 97 gt to school with me next year so i am stuck with a little problem. what kinda car do i buy? i only have a little cash but i know i wanna stay with a 94+ stang. heres my idea. find a 94/5 six banger, ya know the ones with 145hp. replace the cam, heads, and intake with a power pak from http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/mainpage.asp and replace the piston rings while i am in there. if i where to do a complete overhual what else should i replace? i figure i pick up a stang for 4500, a 2500 power pak and little stuff. i only have around 7 grand. any ideas are welcomed. should i go with the power pak, or just spend the money elsewhere. this car has to last me at least 4 years that i why i would do an overhual. another question. if the car has around 80 to 90k is the overhual necessary. please help me. thanks

For a $7K budget I would get a 87-93 5.0, you can pick them up relatively cheap now. You spend the same 5K on the car and 2K of mods on it will (I think) yield you a much faster car than a 6 banger with all the mods. JMO.
