Are there any interesting MN12 parts that may fit fox-body?

Hello!
I've just found an ad about '89 T-bird 3.8 V6 that somebody is parting out in my area. I was wondering if there are any interesting parts in this car that may be useful in my '87 Thunderbird?
I simply like to have spare parts, so I thought I may get something from that car.

Just about the only thing that will interchange that I've found, is the transmission and some minor engine parts, assuming you have an '88, that is.
I dunno what'll "retro-swap" back to an '87 or older, what with being CFI...
Not even sure if an engine from an '89 will work in an '88, what with the balance shaft. (or vice versa)
I've always had better engines in both of my '88 Birds anyways.
