1990 LX 5.0 HO Specs

[TWolf914]

I am looking for the factory specs for the 1990 Mustang LX 5.0 HO. Can anyone point me to a site that has them? I can't find them anywhere!

[MRigney]

I have a book that has them in it. I will scan the page and get it to you. I will have to do that when I get home later.
Any specific specs or just all of them.

Everything you have on the car and engine would be great. Thanks!

[MRigney]

here are some specs. Maybe kinda hard to read.

[MRigney]

another piece of info for ya.

I'd suggest buying that book that has specs in it, It's called 5.0 mustang reference and performance guide. It's very helpful and interesting, it goes through 79-93 mustangs. It's about $35 and I bought mine from amazon.

Do they have one for SN95s?

[Los]

The SN95 is essentially the same thing, but with hyperutectic pistons.

[MRigney]

No they don't have one for SN-95 yet. I am sure they will make one. There is alot of mustang books out there with specs. Just have to hunt them down.

Well THATS NOT correct.

[skooter]

Well...finish your post.

What's not correct about it?

[TrickFlow5.0]

I do believe SN95's have hyperpuetic pistons. In 93 ford wanted to save money so they dropped the forged pistons and used hyperpuetic pistons in the new line-up.

[FalconGTHO]

No, Im saying the SN95s have the mod motor obviously. So Im seeking a spec book on those.

[shibby]

SN95 is the name Ford used for the new body platform they introduced in '94. '94 and '95 had 5 liters in them. No mod motor till '96.

[FalconGTHO]

What do they call the platform from 96 on then? Because it didnt change. I know the first two years still used the pushrod but I consider the SN95 a Mod Motor platform as more years have been powered with it than without.

[shibby]

From 1994-1998 every Mustang be it 3.8, 5.0, 5.8, 4.6 SOHC, or 4.6 DOHC, was an SN95. In 1993 Ford learned of GM's plan for a redesigned rear drive concept for Camaro and Firebird. Ford's upper crust demanded a reply to this concept resulting in authorization to develop the new Mustang called project SN95.

[FalconGTHO]

Right. Thats what I thought. Its STILL an SN95 right?

[shibby]

My previous post will once again answer your question. What are you trying to prove?

[FalconGTHO]

Nevermind. Im not trying to "prove" anything. The original post asked about a spec book. *I* asked about one for SN95 leaving unsaid that this means the Mod Motor. Thats all I want or need to know. Is there a book for them or not?

[MRigney]

I havent seen one if there is.

[FalconGTHO]

K, thanks.

Has anyone bothered to buy a Ford shop manual for their Stang?

[sprayed88]

shibby is correct on that one , body changed in 94 but the motor didnt change till 96

[FalconGTHO]

Right. I knew that. This is old stuff thats since been handled.
