I plan on upgrading my 1990 LX Hatchback. It currently has a 2.3 4 cyl. , with an automatic transmission. I plan on dropping in a 5.0L GT-40 SVO 320 HP Engine and installing a T-5 Transmission. Now I know that i'm going to need new suspension , exhaust , etc etc etc etc. But , my question is does anyone know what specific areas of my 'Stang are going to need to be changed and upgraded? What kind of different suspension , rear-end , mounts , clutch , sway bars , etc. am I going to need to make this change? Any information anyone can provide is greatly appreciated.
