Title: 86 t bird 5.0L
Post by: ajt86 on May 07, 2006, 02:14:47 PM
hey guys, i just got a 86 t bird with a 5.0 in it off of one of my dads co workers for a daily driver. ive been searching around but cant find much- is there anywhere that makes parts for these things? (exhaust, mild bolt ons). i know i can use some mustang bolt ons- but what about exhaust and what not? i thought it was hard finding parts for my buick  any help or advice with it would be apreciated!

hey guys thanks for the help. right now im looking to just throw some decent looking rims on it, a nice exhaust, and just a couple small bolt ons. whats the best bang for the buck? im predominantly a turbo buick guy. im using it for my daily driver untill august when i buy a duramax truck to pull my GN to the track- then maybe ill beable to play alot with it and see what i can squeeze out of it.
