Not very clean right now after having half the front end torn off and exposed to weather for half a year. I'll clean her engine bay up soon now that she has a hood again.

PENALTY !!!! Blown306cougar........that isn't a Fox Thunderbird or Cougar. Did you read the first post? Sorry,gotta be FOX Thunderbirds and Cougars ONLY. If you have a 4.6 or LS-1 or Chrysler Hemi,that's awesome....as long as it's between the fenders of one of the appropriate Foxes. Sorry for the scolding.

Sarjxxx, I have a question......why did you lose the a/c and keep the smog? I'd think it would be the other way around.LOL.

because I haven't found a correct smog eliminator pulley yet. If I just pull it off and run a shorter belt the water pump spins backwards and theres no way around it.

The ac on 88 v6's is on a separate belt so it was easy to ditch. besides, it hasn't worked since I got the car anyway. bad evaporator and accumulator. oh and hey I made $2.67 on the condenser core:hick:

Aaaaahhh,now I see. What's the next thing for your engine? polished intake maybe? That would be cool.Never see them on the V-6.I may have to do one for the heck of it.

....3G alternator in a week or two first, then finish the exhaust with MAC LT's.  After that, probably get (or more likely fabricate) smog eliminator, get hard piped intake tube, throw on some roller rockers, get the heads and intake ported, maybe repaint (powder coat) all brackets and intakes accessories and such, then back pretty much completely off the engine for prolly a year or two and work on the rest of the car until the [COLOR="red"]twin turbo setup[/COLOR] goes on. Which is going to be a whoooole different ball game. (SC block) and god knows what else. Its a money drainer though so its gonna be a good long while before it happens.

You read the thread title...not the first post in the thread.....Fox body Thunderbirds and Cougars only. No offense to other cars.......but,this is the Fox Thunderbird/Cougar forum, so,I thought a thread for all of our associated engines would be a killer thread.

With love,
