The 89 CV LX

[packman]

Damn, you got a zoo there; Thunderbirds, Panthers, Broncos, and a Chevy. LOL

I always wondered what has been swapped into the Citations. I know they're not the same chassis platform as the Malibus, but they look similar (front end).

The buick T-type 3.8 I think fits. I belice its the same chasis as the wrong wheel drive century.

[gadget73]

T Type is a G body, RWD. A Citation is probably a 2.8 V6 or the old Iron Duke. if so, any of the 60 degree FWD V6 motors ought to fit, such as the 3100 or that clusterfuck DOHC 3.4L. Those ran, but ugha. Could probably stab a 3800 SC from a Bonnie in there too if you're clever.

Im talking about the wrong wheel drive 4-door t-type century. My buddy had one. It had the 3.8 with out the turbo.

Fine by me, I like discussing all things. For the record that Citation has a carbed 2.8. My buddy uses it as a winter beater so he doesn't hurt his minty-er Celebrity.

Jam a supercharged 3800 series II mated to a 4T65-E in there.


Actually, that's my suggestion for most builds.

The 2.8, in the S10 it was only a bit less gutless than the newer 2.2's were, with its half q-jet carb. Apparently there's a bit of aftermarket for them and you can build a 2.8 up, not sure why when the 4.3 is a much better starting point with tons more potential but whatever.

Anywho, after looking at your sig, the 89 would look sexy with the blacked out treatment the battle wagon has, or have you already decided against it? I think it'd go well with the black HPP's.

Also noticed the wagon and your friend's Citation have front license places but the 89 doesn't, are you required to have one? I know you said the 89 isn't legal right now, is that why is has the Ford front plate?

[pantera77]

No, I only put 2 cars on the road at the same time. The 91 wagon originally was supposed to just be a winter beater, and come off the road for summer, but it has proved itself to be way too reliable. I will never take it off the road now, it's the one car I can always depend on.

I just have a Ford Certified Pre Owned plate on the 89 that I grabbed from work. The 89 won't go on the road for a while in all honesty. Not until I sell or take the Turbo Coupe off the road.

Yep, why wouldn't there be?

If only it was warm outside.

Just goes to show, Don't Post when you are tired.

I mean me, I shouldn't post when I'm tired.
