if you are putting a v8 in a tc please go somewhere else in post....i shed a tear for everytime a turbo coupe becomes a v8 it just isn't right if you wanted a v8 then buy the v8 model or even a mustang....if you aren't going to do that....there is the door and don't let it hit you on the way out
As long as it is still an intact TC body I'm all for it. Too many TC's are being parted out to supply other 2.3 fanatics with a drivetrain for their notch or pinto swaps. If the body is still intact it can be swapped back.
I really think if more TC owners on here would post the results of their mods(either 1/4 mile times or dyno numbers) people would realize these cars can be made very fast and stick with the 2.3. Some people won't be happy unless they have a V-8.
