I just picked up an 86 5.0. 5 speed with some obvious mods. It's a quick car, I had a 95 5.0 with work done, and it was quick, this one by far is quicker.
I can't tell exactly what's been done, what I do know is, I was told it has gt40 heads, has an HO intake on it, headers and cold air, it has a spool and possibly gears, but cant say for sure.
The engine wiring is a mess, fans been put on a switch, looks like intake temp sensor is sitting in the valley pan, all kinds of butt and splice connectors. Looks like the smog stuff is still there, but several vaccum lines have been capped, some on top of the intake, not.
Car scoots, but idle is really lumpy when cold, and hovers at 1400 when warm, gas gauge seems to work in reverse, speedo doesn't work. And it sometime acts like it's starving for fuel under heavy acceleration in first or second
