I still haven't owned a F body car but I have realized GM doesn't touch ford when it comes to push rod motors! That's why a 6.0 will power my Stang!!!

wouldn't surprise me if its your intake gasket. mine started leaking a few weeks after i got it, fixed it in a couple hours. no big deal.

back on topic. My first car was a 1967 barracuda. my second was a 1990 rs camaro with a 305tbi and a 5 speed, i fell in love with 3rd and 4th gens after that car. my 3rd was a 95 5.0 mustang, then a 94 5.0. then i got my 25th anniversary T/A for $2000 a year ago. been a good car so far and i wouldn't sell it for anything. just looking to get the correct interior back in it once it retires as a daily driver. I'm 19 by the way

Parents wouldn't allow me to get one until I had some driving experience and proved myself responsible so I got a 99 bmw 328is and drove that for two years. Lots of good times with that car. I actually thought it was quick lol. Realized how wrong I was about that when I drove my ls1 for the first time.

my first car was an 84 z28 when i was 16 t-5 305 toilet bowl injection lol i thought it was fast car ran a 15.3 at like 90 or something.

my second car was a huge jump, I bought a 1998 ws6 vert 6 speed black with 18,000 miles on it for 16k! the car was mint i loved this car so much, a family friend owned a suspension business and gave me a steal. it was boner stock even with the single exhaust pipe out the back! it was a freak in my mind, with a lid and k&n it put down 317rwhp and 333 ft lbs with the single exhaust outlet. im looking for a pic to post it. after full exhaust at 30000miles it started burning 2 qts of oil for every 1k miles..had to sell rings were fried. i did beat on it tho
