very true! The 93 models are as good and the 20 less horsepower thing is only partially true. The loss is due to a pileup of changes ford made over the years, and in 93, they decided to toss a new number on there. 93 models do however have hypereutectic pistons, which have been deemed by many not boost/nitrous friendly. This is due mainly to the fact that hypereutectic pistons wont hold up to detonation. The truth is, forged pistons dont hold up well to detonation either. Just..... avoid detonation. I got my 93 about a year and a half ago for 8000. Kind of pricy for a 5.0 but its a GT convertible, had 28000 miles, and was in mint condition when I bought it.
