I may be wrong, but I think even an '89 5.0 GT was barely factory rated in the high 14's.

5.0 Stangs, whether GT or LX have a tone of potential, it simply wasn't tapped from factory, something to do with people actually wanting to be able to afford the insurance ratings.






not really true most 87-93 stangs were mid 14's right off the showroom floor....easliy pull 14.6@97 mph bone stcok....i've owned several and all of them ran 14's stock....even a stock 94-95's are quite capable of running 14.8@94 mph as well....now bump the timimg,and do a silencer/k&n,and a fresh tune and they are capable of mid to low 14's easily...

my 95 runs 14.1-14.2's all day long with only gears and a few bolt ons(long tube headers,exhaust,tb,maf,pullies)
