Post what about this set up?

I found a mustang for sale with a '92 H.O with a T-5. Motor with an E cam,long tube headers,edelbrock intake,650 double pumper,MSD ignition,electric water pump and 3inch exhaust sytstem, 8.8 31 spline axles with 4.10 gears.
It has subframes, 6pt.cage, control arms.
The guy says it good for high 12's-low 13's
Is that possible with the stock heads?
The car is a 1980 mustang and wants to trade even up for my stock '88GT

People with cars that are a bit of a mismatch (3" exhaust and stock heads?-electric water pump on a street car?) are usually wanting to trade for a reason, I'd steer clear.
The times could be legit because a 1980 is a lightweight and the 410's will definitely help, with heads this thing could scream.

He used to have a 414 engine that ran 10's that is why it has the suspension and electric water pump and 3" exhaust. It also has a 300HP NOS kit that just needs the wiring hooked up.
I was hoping it had some head work done.

depends on what you want... if it's gonna be a driver... no way.. 300HP nitrous? gonna make a boat anchor out of the engine, huh? heheh
save your money, buy a S/C for the 88.. then you can have a fast reliable transpo car ;-)
