Re: 1992 5.0 build up

I appreciate the input LeeH and I really know nothing about cams anyway. I did not even know until recently that the TFS kit came with a cam. I am still learning a few basics and plan to talk to the...

Re: 1992 5.0 build up

Well I think I will keep the A/C however I am not sure how well it will work. It was doing very fine and blew nice cold air when it was parked about 5 years back. I have already yanked all the smog...

Re: What is in style now??

I guess they look a little like the true Hammer wheels. This is what most people were using way back then and I think the term "Hammer" was all we could come up with. I believe the ones I have on it...

Re: What is in style now??

It has been an excellent car and was taken very good care of. I think it needs to be updated a little however it is a nice base to build on. I think a set of at least 17 inch Cobra Rs would be a good...

Re: 1992 5.0 build up
