    Noob in Central Florida with a 1989 Grand Marquis LS

    So I am not the biggest fan of this body style but the price was right and I bought one. I gotta tell you it grew on me quick! The car is crazy Florida solid with no body rust in sight. After replacing a bad tire it drives down the road like a giant marshmallow. And room? This beast is huge! I gotta replace a few parts to get it looking right again but I am looking for ideas to give it some attitude.

          Welcome to the forums! I can't make any educated suggestions as far as making your ride a little meaner but I do know that a lot of people have put HO intakes on their 302s and mustang headers (which require some modding) and that has always done a lot to speed these big boats up. I'm sure someone who knows more will chime in.
