Wow, that car brings back a lot of memories! The 85 GT was one of a bunch new 5.0’s I had back in the day (82GT, 83GT 85GT, 93LX5.0, 95 Cobra).

Here’s me racing her when she was brand new (yes, brand new - ha!):

I did mostly test/tune, but I bracket raced a couple of times and actually won once:

First off, unless you’re absolutely bent on racing it … **DON’T MOD IT**! Not too many 85 GT’s left that haven’t been torn to pieces.

But if you’re def gonna race it, this is what you should do first:

- **Replace the stock 2.73/3.08 7.5" rear axle with an 8.8" 3.55**  
( I broke my 7.5 on the starting line at LVD, tow back to Schtd’y was $250)  
- **Get a beefed up transmission**  
(2nd and 3rd gear synchros are weak in the T-5, I learned how to remove/replace transmissions because of this car)  
- **Get an Edelbrock Mani if they still make them, shorty headers, and a good exhaust system**  
(this combo worked especially well for this car)

I ran low 14’s on street tires with that set up, which was good considering it’s a high 14/low 15 sec. car stock.

Good Luck!

Considering its around 3400lbs on 220hp at stock that really isnt bad. The marauder does 15s stock, but with a tune mid to low 14s.

I know how slow they are. Ive got a '92 5.0.  
When I got the car it was pretty much stock except for an intake and cai. It ran high 15’s at 98 or so mph.

Weird, the 302 that is in my car used to be in a 4 door meteor, and with aod headers and intake with the 650 we were running 14.6s at best. My dad raced the car and was getting 1.7s to 1.8s 60 foots in it. That was because of the torque converter just didn’t have enough power for the top end. We had basically a stock aod with a b&m mega shifter so it was fun.

I had a stock AOD with a B&M ratchet shifter and it was cutting 2.2 60’.  
My first trip to the track it ran 15.7’s.

The fastest its been was 13.7 at 104. Its got a new motor, a 5 speed and alot of other new parts now though.

My stock 85 GT was exactly 3180lbs and 210hp. Autos are a hundred lbs. more

With my 93 LX 5.0 stick I ran a 13.9@ 99mph with nothing else except an Edelbrock Performer series mani and 3.55’s (on street tires). Couldn’t beat 13’s for a new 15k car with only $800 in mods.

Yup, you’re right.

Almost all my 5.0’s came with 2.73’s ( I never ordered one, always took whatever was on the lot).
