    Some pics of my stang

    5.0s got the spoilers and most the 2.3's did not. Mine did not have one but it looks funny without it so the first one I found at the junkyard I put on my car. I regret that now though, as I want a Cobra wing instead. ohh well. Nice car though man.

    Umm, its not a mustang but......

    Yup, pretty much. I know some guys that have Foci (yes I call them Foci to), and they have some cheap turbo kits out there. only a couple grand. and in different stages. Nice thing about the foci market is that it is kinda like the mustang 5.0 market. there is lots of it out there and many...

    Years of interchange on the 2.3

    you can also pull the motors from a Pinto or a Mustang II or a early ranger or aMerkur or a Thunderbird. dont do the 5.0 though. to much work anyways. why not just drop off the motor at a machine shop and have it rebuilt. then it will drive forever. why would it spin a bearing though...

    Door Speakers

    No speakers in the doors of my 80 stang but I replaced the front dash ones and fitted 4" kenwoods in there. sounded good to. the rear has kenwood factory replacements.

    waterpump pulley.. interchangalbe with 5.0?

    the mustang II's should of had the single pulleys if I remember right. you can use a twin pulley though and just not run the second belt.

    New Car

    NAPA carries a paint that is called "bumper black" and it works perfect. lasts a long while as long as it is maintained. It is not glossy and not flat black. just perfect. TF

    Volvo??

    I got two dem Intercoolers ;-) not sure if I am going to use them though. depends if they will fit in the sierra. I am told that the caps will blow off it if I run 30psi, but many on here have said that they work fine on that pressure. . . . TF

    Escort Swap??

    I 2.3 Lima?? I doubt it. that would be a LOT of work to get it to fit. dry sump would probably be in order if you wanted it to fit under the hood. that would be crazy though. I believe they had a 2.3 in the escort. but it was a diff block than the one we refer to here. TF

    New Member... Helping a Girl Build a Race Ening

    there are actuall 2.3 circle track pages out there but hard to find. Are those all the rules? I remember there being more on the motor that limited the motor to being not much more than stock. Is the motor in the car a stock or modified 2.3? i strongly advise for you to go to the...

    Rim Question

    Not to offend yah, but sounds like you might want to pick up a "cars for Dummies" book or something similar. Or find a patient buddy that you can hang around and learn the basics and Jargon of the automotive world.

    how reliable is the 2.3?

    LOL, I had a funny thing happen the other day. I was trying to power brake the car and do a burnout. while doing this smoke started coming from the front, my freinds (mechanics) just laughed and said "hay isnt that suposed to come out the back?". I have known my clutch is getting weak, but I...

    how reliable is the 2.3?

    80 hp was about standard in those days anyways. imagine being a dealer... we can sell you this mustang with one of the three; a 80hp 4cyl, a 120hp v8 or a 130hp turbo4cyl. hard choice ehh! my 89 Sierra came with something like 115hp and now that the cam is more worn out and the motor ages it...
