3.8SC into a 84 Tbird August 06, 2006, 02:23:44 PM Recently i got my bird running. i installed a FMS t-5 HD trans. got the car running, drove for a while, and blame the timing cover seal went and the radiator drained into my crank case. kaboom go's the 5.0. My friend has a 89SC. he also purchased a rolled 89SC for parts. he has not touched the 89 parts car. it still runs and it is is also a stick. my question is can the parts that i just purchased for the t-5 swap bolt to the 3.8l. i know they are the same bolt pattern and such. will the fms clutch i got work?arnt the motor mount the same?i know the wiring is going to be a PITA.any other info any one?
