Body/Appearance/Interior / Dumb question?
Did our cars ever come with manual window regulators or were they all power. I have yet to see any manual windows and I plan on pulling all of my power window stuff out (excess weight to slow me down)  :yuck: .

Engine Tech / K&N air filter intake
If you car is a TC, then I would not run a K&N. To much garbage gets threw and eats at the blades in the turbo.

Nothing to special. The rods are stock (scary, I know) and hope to upgrade them this year. The crank is stock but has been cross drilled and micro polished. The pistons are TRW 12.5:1, forged pop tops with plasma rings that we hand file fitted. The ring gaps are roughly half the thickness of stock pistons too. At the time the plasma rings were all that was offered for them. The whole rotating mass was balanced too

Drivetrain Tech / Another score
I picked up a 31 spline trac loc out of an 97 Explorer today for $58.99. This will be going into the 8.8 I got for the bird.

Body/Appearance/Interior / Marker Lens
Standard. I am heading to the wrecking yard on Sunday. But very rarely see our style of t-birds in there.

Dumb question, did you open a new tab and then copy and paste it ? I just tried and it worked.

Body/Appearance/Interior / Marker Lens
Not quite ready for them yet. But how hard is it going to be to find the marker lenses for the marker lights right next to the grill on my 88 t-bird?

Suspension/Steering / Spindels
Here they are in all their glory. They are off of a 95 Mustang.

Ivygreen, Thanks for the offer but I'm not quite ready for them. I'm not even ready for the spindle swap. But I thought the price was to good to pass up.
