Re: 3.8 supercharged t-bird Reply #3 – September 11, 2005, 04:04:41 PM Quote from: a-rush-for-morewhats the difference its a 91 thunderbird supercoupe!He was just trying to point out not many of us know about the MN12 cars. We mostly deal with the fox car. The MN12 series started in 89 were as the fox series stopped in 88.You might try looking for pullies of a GTP they ran the same M90 super charge. You might find more info on those cars beings they are newer. I work with someone that is running a super coupe pully on his GTP thats why I suggested it. Other than that can't help ya.

Re: 3.8 supercharged t-bird Reply #4 – September 11, 2005, 06:18:06 PM youre going to want more mods to the car before you look into swapping pulleysyou need to, at the very least, put a full exhaust on the car, guys who bump up the boost with stock exhaust commonly blow headgaskets due to the rising temps and cylinder pressuresdo all the basic stuff first, intake, exhaust, and then thing about the pulleythe problem with a home made pulley, is that they generally lead to belt slipping Quote Selected
Re: 3.8 supercharged t-bird Reply #5 – September 14, 2005, 08:20:38 PM this is a drag car in the works, im putting ported and polished 95 mustang 3.8 tubular manifolds on tommorow and then 40 series flowmaster about 2 feet behind the manifolds so the exhaust is considered done. iv got a cold air intake and a 70 mm t/b and a 70mm maf sensor so would the pulley be able to be put on now?
