5.0 question

Pony_Racer · 01-22-2005, 09:05 PM

exactly what i was thinking. Theres this 91 LX i'm looking to pick up and well...heres the specs...
. x303-cam, 3:73 gear, Mac 3" exhuast, short shifter, racing clutch,TRW pistons,underdrive pulleys, k&n filter. Its at a dealership and i was wondering if it would be a good grab for like 3k? But if its got the cam and the heads are stock whats the point? I mean would it be a good performance buy or just a gas hogging waste of time?

I guess if you want to call lose of all bottom end torque and piston to valve interference an advantage, then go for it!

On the bright side though, since you won't have much bottom end torque anymore, you might get around in the snow a lot better..
