 Doesn't say how to tune or modify September 5, 2007
This book is more like "what you can do to tune or modify your 5.0L"
This book doesn't explain things like adjusting timing, modifying EEC programming parameters, etc. Instead this book explains that you can buy a new set of heads, or intake manifold, or cam, roller rockers. etc. Doesn't tell you how to do the work or give tips on getting the most from these upgrades, just says you can buy the stuff and install it.
The book explains nothing to you on how to do it.
A good reference for SN95 enthusiasts August 28, 2002

This book is the best available on SN95 in addition to Fox Body. I've read Mustang 5.0 Projects and Mustang Performance Handbook, and they very rarely talk about SN95's.On the other hand, we have this book (How to tune & mondify your Ford Mustang 5.0): your best choice if you are looking for a good guide on what to put on your SN95 (94-95 Mustang GT & Cobra), what are the advantages and disadvantages of popular aftermarket products, mentioned brand names and part numbers. Again, this is my favorite book of all the 3 Mustang performance books I've purchased. Don't get fooled by other book authors who tell you their books cover 1979 to 1995 Mustangs because they DON'T in fact tell you Anything about 94-95 Mustangs except putting a single photo of SN95 in the preface.
Too high level - not enough detail February 13, 2001
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book's description and title gives the impression that there are detailed procedures illustrated in the book however it is VERY high level with no detail whatsoever. If you're only looking for mod ideas, this book is fine but if you're wanting down and dirty details, go elsewhere.
The only 5.0 book you'll ever need! November 21, 2000

As a loyal fan to the 5.0 Mustang; I found this book to be highly educational. Steve Turner gives you the facts; what works and what doesn't, for the small and big budgeted 5.0 enthusiast. I read this book four times over in the first three weeks I owned it. This is an excellent book for anybody who loves 5.0 Mustangs; giving you a brief overview of their history before unleashing you to the masses of useful information it holds. I appreciate how it kept the driveway mechanic in mind. It's the type of book that if you put it down it's because you're running to your Stang; wrench in hand! You won't be disappointed.
