    Well figured i'd give you an update on my '89
    She got a bit of rust over the winter but no worries, That will all be getting fixed up this summer while its parked.








    So futer plans for this car are:
    -GT40 upper and lower intake (already have, Just need to install)
    -Duel exhuast with glass packs
    -Need to do the oil pan gasket
    -Timming chain
    -Find good front fenders.
    -paint the underneath
    -fix all the rust
    After this it will be ready to roll next winter when the lincoln goes in storage

          Direct fit or were spacers required?

                  Im surprised it took 16 seconds to get up to 60mph. When Magna was stock with stock exhaust, lopo 5.0, 189K and 2.73s it ran about 12.5 seconds. I think anyone here would tell you that gears and exhaust are prolly the best investments to make on a box to start.

                      My dad was working on his bonneville and had one of his wheels off, so i stole it for a min and pop'd it on the merc to see what it would look like

                      And the new home to the lincoln turbines.

                          Im going to do some work on her tomorow. Here is a list of whats going on tomorow
                          -Clean Engine bay
                          -Install my H.O upper intake
                          -Valve cover gaskets
                          -Engine paint
                          -Fix the shock that has riped out of the control arm
                          -clean up TV cable and oil it so it stops sticking under heavy acceleration. Its getting very anoying to have to pull over and push it back into place.
