I was planning on it...at one point when I thought I was gonna get a free sedan.

Ugh, poor cobra. 2.3 is a far superior motor. And these days a draw thru turbo setup on one of those cars is pretty rare. I'll take the 2.3 and turbo setup!

Interesting, The turbo went out, the car is all but perfect all original. turbo so far has been a hassle to remove + with out pulling motor and hacksawing the exhaust pipe off I'm about fed up and thinking of throwing in 302 for cheap. With hopefully a lot less hassle, what do you think?

^This.

Would be ruining teh car to swap a 5.0 in place of the 2.3, just about anyone that is into fox bodies would agree as well.

4 eyed pride or corral.net are the forums you are looking for. This site is for the panther chassis, grand marquis, crown victoria and towncar. A mustang is a fox body. Corral is mostly a mustang site, and 4 eyed pride specializes in the 79-86 mustang.
