all 351w's from 71-96 had a 9.503" deck height. prior to that it was 9.48".

google "351w fox body swap" everything that pertains to a Mustang, will apply to your TBird

i'm so freaking confused!!!!!

sure does seem like it would be easier to drop a v8 in it and be done...

ok, let me see if i have this straight...

i need to pick up an 87-88 TC ECU, 4 injectors out of a lightning, a bigger VAM, cam (i have heard of using stock ranger cams, good? bad?), header (whats a good one at a decent price?) and a turbo upgrade?

i guess i will pick up that t3/t4 hybrid from my buddy

Engine Tech / first TC

ok so i'm buying my first TC. its an 83 with an automatic and i wanted an 86 with a 5 speed, but that can be fixed easy enough. getting it cheap enough that i couldnt pass it up.

i plan to do a full tuneup first thing. after that i'm going to get a FMIC and put a 3" exhaust from the turbo all the way to the back bumper.

on to the questions. what do i need to do about adding fuel as i add boost? a friend of mine has a turbonetics t3/t4 hybrid thats brand new he said he would sell for $200, but doesn't know the specs on it.

i'm shooting for 250 horsepower, what should my modifications be?

i have always wanted a TC, but havent done much research and cant really find much online about buildups and yes, i have been all over all the TC forums...
