As you get older you get a better job and can afford those things. It was a pain in the ass waiting but it finally paid off for me. When the time comes it'll be fun to get that HO in there.

You mean a tanko Mark with a 460? Did it kill the tree?Oh yea man, im happy with my SO actually. Its quick enough for me.. I just wanna convert to 5-speed and I cant quite do that without converting to HO anyway seeing I need the computer and all.Oh yes. the big tank.. the tree killed it :( Quote Selected
I ordered my 5.0 HO! Reply #23 – February 09, 2007, 09:35:50 PM I think you could use the 5 speed with the SO computer. Didn't CougarSE use a T5 behind a 3.8 with an auto computer? It would idle funky but it be fun to drive:D Quote Selected
I ordered my 5.0 HO! Reply #24 – February 09, 2007, 09:41:04 PM I think it would probably idle fine. I don't think the computers in these cars could care less about what the tranny is doing. Quote Selected
I ordered my 5.0 HO! Reply #25 – February 09, 2007, 09:43:29 PM Could be but I swear that CougarSE has some problem with idle or a decell stall when he was driving his 3.8 T5 car. I could be wrong though. Quote Selected
I ordered my 5.0 HO! Reply #26 – February 09, 2007, 09:49:02 PM I heard somewhere that you couldnt run a 5 speed on an auto computer... maybe I got my refs mixed.These cars and 5-speeds seem to go hand in hand... first one I drove was a blue 5-speed TC.... 86 of course. Quote Selected

I know the idle on an automatic is higher than a stick shift in order to keep the car from rolling backwards, etc while idling in D.You could possibly hard-wire it to make the computer THINK its in P (to get the lower idle). I'm sure it can be done. Just have to mess with the circuits some. :)-Mike Quote Selected
