5.0 T5 swap 90% complete Reply #15 – October 31, 2006, 11:27:30 AM Quote from: thunderjet302;110829I know what you mean about 3.8s. I test drove an 88 T-bird with the "good" 3.8 (it had 39,000 original miles) and I was amazed at how weak it felt. I know my 5.0 SO isn't that strong but it felt like my car could have run away and hid from that 3.8 car.Oh since you have a 5.0 SO with a T5 and a 3.27 open how about you come down to Chicago and I'll run my 5.0 SO AOD and 3.73 Traction-Lok car against ya? Who will win? RJ Quote Selected

Too bad we all live so far apart. Quote Selected
