General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / who wants to try this out?
what they dont tell you is.....the car lost its right front suspension and wheel in the rollover.. and personaly i wouldnt trust a LS rollover or front collision  unless i planned on a rebuild and that would be a waste for a 3000 mile car...

but if it was me just grab the same roller from a 2000+ LS1 vette 405hp and under 10k if ya really want to spend 20k im sure 10k in a rebuild and a supercharger would get ya over 505 :P

oh and part of the proportion issue could be the 245 tire they tossed up front

well if you just need the engine side harness the mustang and mark 7 should be direct fit. so ide google all ford genral forums and mustang

try http://www.mustang-forums.com/ and maybe http://www.moddedmustangs.com/

as for fox tbird/cougar forums i believe this is the only real car specific one. but all in all all tbird/cougar/mark7 have alil mustang in em

but if i remember correctly my old Thunderbird had a mustang harness in it and it was the same as my XR7 harness

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / looking for tips/info thunderbird/LSC
its been about 9 years since my last thunderbird and XR7 cougar were forcefully removed by my parents. it was an 88 XR7 and a 86turbo coupe swapped to 302/T-5.....well thats the past now to the discussion...

im looking to make a new custom car and would like some tips/suggestions/info

car will be a V8 and a 5 speed thats a given now my questions were where is a mark 7 LSC hiding the extra 500lb over the t-bird?

well things I like LSC is 5 lug 4 wheel disk all have floor shifter location

thunderbird i love the look but 87,88 are getting hard to find.

so there it is ide love your input into the matter to help me decide.
