Pulling the motor for several reasons.
1. T5
2. re gasketing everything
3. I'm OCD about dirty engine bays (dont laugh)
4. The car sat in a three sided building, 15 miles from town, in the middle of a field, for two years, Theres mouse refuse EVRYWHERE, and when I first got the car eveytime I opened the hood for someone their first comment was on how many mice it had.. It annoyed me :p
So...
AOD crossmember/driveshaft from an 5.0 tbird
T5/bellhousing from a mustang
non automatic TC computer
Look for this stuff in the cassifieds soon:
Nearly perfect 88 TC shell (no title)(was a five speed, prolly willing to throw in the stock motor and T5 for the right moneys :p )
89 Thunderbird LX (might keep the 5.0/AOD)
89 Super Coupe (might keep the supercharged 3.8)(no title)
N/A mustang 2.3 motor
2 A4LD (one unknown, one functions, and has bright red fluid)
2 TC upper/lowers
1 TC exaust man.
2 88 TC exausts (one stock)(one hacked on)
List is of course subject to change.. anyone see anything I've missed of the parts cars that I might want? I intend to finish this having my modded motor in the car, and a spare 5sp TC drive train for when I breaks it :p
How much am I into this so far?
1 $500 pontiac
and an additional $300 for the parts cars.
add my $1500.00 budget and I'll have a nice TC for under $2300, and by the way it'll whip up on smallblocks That is of course assuming this motor has the potential ive heard. :p
