How fast would you like to go.

That car is a popular Ford platform for alot faster. Light, and plenty of aftermarket support.
Mine is an 86 vert stock...I'd like to get into playing around with it but...if you know anything about the 86 everything is unique to that car it's the first year for FI, the E 6 heads, speed density etc. its a cruiser, I do think a rear gear swap would wake it up though get rid of the 2.73s....
