Got my 1st mopar...

I've decided to trade my mustang mania for mopar madness, or at least explore new venues. Heres the goods

1974 Gold Duster, black w/white stripes. auto, 225 Super Six, CNC'd/"worked over" head (or so i'm told), Clifford 4bbl intake, and Dual headers. Being a 5.0 guy, these headers are unlike anything I've ever come across. Who knew you could true dual a slant six? Not me. Interior is black, and immaculate. Paint is "eh" since the vinyl top got peeled off. Body is straight and rust free. Literally just got it, so I've done nothing with it yet.

1990 Mustang LX, white, 5 spd, forged 306, Edelbrock RPM heads, Trickflow Stage 1 cam, Trickflow intake, BBK equal length headers, Flowmaster 40 Catback, Steeda aluminum underdrives, Taurus electric fan, Fenderwell CAI, Edelbrock 70mm throttle body/EGR, 73mm Mass Air, FRPP 24# injectors, Holley FPR, 255lph fuel pump, NX nitrous, 3.55 gears, and other junk that sounds fast but likely does nothing except intimidate the guy in a Camaro beside me and use even more of my gas then I could possibly use on my own. Best 1/4 so far was a 13.1 @ 112mph, without nitrous, on some killer Futura GLS tires that have this dirty little fetish for spinning alot.

Considering selling the horse to fund the beast...

welcome to the forum, I wont think bad of you, My wife had a 5.0 thing for awhile, I had to get her a super bee to get over it. the horse sounds like a strong contender, as long as it wasnt a cammeroohhhhh, you get my vote. If youve had the stang a long time, dont sell it man. just park it and start on the mope. youll regret it later.
