so im looking to put a bigger than stock cam in the 88 5.0, what size do most people start with on a close to stock motor but big enough so i can build the motor. or basically what size can i start with?? anybody have any suggestions??

 

U should convert it to mass air and list all your mods before just slapping a cam in it
If she cant breath a cam isnt going to do much

 

yea well idk if it makes a difference but lets say 70mm throttle body, h pipe exhaust, long tube trick flow headers, cobra intake, possibly trick flow heads....what size could i start with that?? and yea im a noob so whats mass air lol??

 

mass air=its the reason you cant do all that other mods. the computer has preset tuning tables that dont get radical enough for modified airflow.

speed density>u

 

so to fix that what do i do or buy??

 

Ford Racing 5.0L EFI Mustang Mass Air Conversion Kit - JEGS if its not converted already and u dont know it. most are already converted take a pic of your air inlet that shows from your filter to your intake manifold

 

nice sig

 

thanx, i will have to look into that tomorrow during the day and see whats up. so the heads, cam, upper and lower intake mods wont produce that much power if i dont hav the mass air conversion or something like it??

 

thanx guys now i kno where i need to start, now the search for the conversion parts!!

 

Get an ecm harness from an 89 and an A9L if it is a stick or A9P for an AOD.
