New guy, '89 LX questions?

[Conman]

there are people around here that know way more than I do but I can answer a few questions

The 89 made 225 HP and 300 ft-lbs at the flywheel. This is the same as the GT.
Stock in the quarter mile is about 14.5 (depending on driver)

The car most likely has 2.73 gears. 3.08's were an option. This is one of the best mods for these stangs, upgrade to 3.73's
if you do alot of highway driving you may only want 3.55's or if you want even more jam outta the hole you could get 4.10's. everyone has their own opinion on which gears to go to but I think everyone here can agree that the gears do need to be upgraded

there are a few little things you can do for free that help out the performance of these cars. Bump the timing to about 16° BTDC and take off the air silencer, it is in the fenderwell at the end of the air intake

another good upgrade is subframe connectors to stiffen the chassis, a good upgrade before you get running too much horsepower and twist the frame

Hope this helps you out some

do you know how to search the forum, I bet every question you have has been answered before, If you can't find something don't be afraid to ask again
