If only they knew what could be done to a 2.3...

Im sure Bondo would  himself if he saw a car like Fordguy545's.

While true, road racing people don't like high HP turbo cars because they get so  peaky. Never want to get into the boost at the wrong time.

The 5.0 was a natural upgrade for Bob B.

The article mentions that the 5.0 Sport lacked the Suspension of the turbo coupe.  What was different?  How did the thunderbird in either variation compare w/ the xr-7?
