tbird is getting a new motor

I got my 87 gt short block kinda put together finally. Its still gonna be stock specs...

I'll get some picks tommorow. The motor has been out of the car for a couple weeks and i'm finally getting all put back together. its gonna have the stock cam,heads and intake. But it'll have a brand new engine and the tranny out of my old blue v-6 car. Still working on pulling it. But I'll get pics tommorow maybe. I feel kinda stupid putting a block with the dished or whatever pistons in with stock heads on it.

    But yeah. It'll be fun when its all done.:burnout: :birdsmily:

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
