ok, so i have ALWAYS had 87/88 cars. so anything pertaining to the 4-eye cars i have always skimmed/ignored cause i never had one. well, thanks to mike, i have one, and my information has been consistently wrong when i assume things about the earlier cars. so im going to just ask here, and hope you fellas know whats what.
the build date is Oct, 1985. it is an 86 thunderbird TC.
question #1: What would have been 'optioned out' on this model year? mine has leather, climate control, dual power seats, premium sound, auto dim lights, power antenna, rear courtesy lights, 5 speed, no sunroof. is this an every option car? or could you have gotten a factory moon roof in early 86?
Question #2 What engine computer should this have?
Question #3 Should this be a single or dual fuel pump system?
Question #4 What injectors SHOULD be in there stock?
Question #5 Big VAM or Small VAM?
Question #6 Would the vin tell me if this was supposed to be an automatic car?
Question #7 Assuming this was a factory 5 speed car, what rear end should be in there, a 7.5 or an 8.8, and what ratio would it be? (the tag is destroyed, i tried).
Question #8 What size should the fuel tank be? 18 gal or 22 gal, or something else?
anything would be helpful, thank you in advance!
