Ok guys, you won't believe what happened. My dad bought a new car, and kept his 89 GT to play with. Well, he said I could do whatever I want to do with it, so I think I am going to swap all of my parts off of the Cobra, and put it onto the GT, so I can keep the cobra original.

Here's the deal, I have TFS Heads, cam and Street Intake with Full lengths mufflers,1.6 RR's,and a 70 mm TB.

I am going to switch that to the 89, except for the cam, that is a mess, the car already has a e cam.

OK, I just bought a Powerdyne 9# from my best bud for $1200, excelent condition. The bad thing is that the 89 has a rebuilt motor with about 120K on it about <320 on entire car> and Keith Black Hyperutectic pistons. It has a stock T5 that has beed repaired twice over the life of the car. Stock rear end.

Will these hold up FOR NOW, NO SLICKS, OR HARD RACING!!! or do I need to replace them first?

Also say I make about 280 rwhp with the heads, cam, intake...about where will I be after the blower?? 380-390??
