I have a 1990 5.0LX vert f/s f/t and this guy wants to trade me his 96gt with a 01pi motor,and 04 3650 trans swap in it.I dont knowanything about sn95's at all.Does this thing look legit or what?Ill put the link for my car and his,can you please check them out?I need help asap!!!.
Both cars are old enough that it comes down to the condition of the car and your personal preference. A 3650 tranny and 01 PI engine are certainly an upgrade from the original equipment (t45 and npi 4.6), but obviously watch out for shoddy work or poor condition and maintanence.
PI = Performance Improved = Better head design that came about in the 99 year model Mustangs, brought hp output up to 265 from the previous years 225 (iirc)
NPI = Non PI
Look for easy to spot obvious stuff that indicates hack work. Mismatched bolts, electrical tape in large quantities (I've found this normally leads to wires that are twisted together and taped instead of properly soldered). Broken plastic parts, worn hoses that look to have been reused.
Outside links are not allowed?? Thats funny considering someone maybe two or three threads below me posted a link to ebay,and i didnt heart any complaing.I need the links because i needed people to actually look at the cars pictures,not imagine it in there head.
I told you to copy/paste each car's mod list, which isn't hard at all.
I didn't allow it because it's your car, and it can be construed as an attempt to advertise your car for sale. You also have 6 posts, which makes it even more suspicious.
Obviously its my car,I wanted opinons on the trade.What the hell does 6 posts have to do with it? Whats the difference between 1 post and 1,000 posts??I wanted some of the communities opinions on both cars.Dont worry ill go and find a another site to talk to the community.Thanks for nothing.

The difference between 1 and 1000 posts is alot. Also posting in the classifieds on here doesn't count towards post count. If you have been an established member it might be slightly overlooked but don't expect it too much. Most people don't read the forum rules before posting so they get upset when stuff like this happens. Only place you might find is a pretty small group of guys who may or may not know what advice to give you. Heck I bet if you just post a picture of your car and not a link to it (photobucket) and then the other one it would be ok. That is just MY guess, but it seems that if you do not mention a price on what you want, the other guy wants, or anything about money exchanging hands you will be ok.
I have noticed that there are a few "whats this worth" and "how much can I get" threads and they have all been moderated quite well. Even on a post by Sonic04, something like that. Can't remember exact screen name, but a mod came on and said it was close to a thread to be locked up. It's not just you bud so don't take it so personal, figure out how to get it to work where we can help and you will find people on here will be more than willing to help ya MANY guys in the SN crowd also have Foxes too fwiw.

As I said, I don't give a **** if you post your mods and the other car's mods for opinions. That's all you wanted in the first place, correct? If so, a link to your sale ad wasn't necessary in the first place. However, once you or any other member posts a link to THEIR or YOUR "for sale" craigslist ad, it gets edited. I don't think that's too hard to understand
Your 6 post count is suspect because fools (not necessarily you) come here every day, make an account, then post their stuff for sale. They're merely using the forum for free advertising, and it'll work for a short time until the mods catch it. They then get banned, and the next donkey comes and does the same thing.
If you have a problem with understanding the forum rules, feel free to use another forum, but I can almost guarantee you the rules are the same there as here.
I'm locking this thread. Feel free to start another thread with the correct format/information if you feel the need to do so.
