Under Hood
The 85 was the last year for the carb.I ran mine with the carb for several years.It worked well but was not built with crazy amount of power.I wanted a clean car that I could afford to drive and run at the track some.So I built the stang mildly.I did manage to get over 500 passes on the ol girl over the years.The car ran 12.78 @ 107mph.It dynoed 270 horse and 292 torque at the wheels.
I drove the stang for many years with a carb.Then I decided to try my luck in the fulley scene.So I found a donor car and swaped a multiport system into the 85.
Unfortunatly the donar car had a problem with the electonics that was passes on to me.I was not able to figure out the problem so I ended up swaping the carb back! lol I will try again!
