Iwas just wondering about the aluminum parts on my car the valve covers, alt bracket, alt, and belt adjuster, power steering bracket, waterpump, bottom of distributor, thermostat neck, intake(obviously), most of fuel pump, and the rack and pinion steering thing is aluminum. Do all Mustangs of the mid 80's come with all these aluminum parts? The car has a oil cooler and the connector above the filter is aluminum too.

Yes, why? It isn't an advantage necessarily, if that's what you're thinking, because it's all cast aluminum.
