    Lift Springs/Kit

    Someone on the forum said that a set of 88 T-Bird springs are taller or stiffer or something. I just bought a set from PartsAmerica.com. They're not taller, but they do seem like a higher spring rate. I might take them back if there is a better solution out there. Is there lift kit out...

    Rear Shock Mounts

    For your information, I'm still using the 7.5 rearend. I just bought some KYB AGX's for my rally car. I was about to install them and I noticed that the mounting hole/bushings looked a bit funny. Anyone run into this yet? The shocks came with some rubber bits, but do I have to use my old...

    Starting Problems

    I just picked up my NA 2.3L LX today :) The car started up on the lot after sitting about a week. It drove good on the test drive. I drove it home (about 25 miles), parked it, then went out to dinner with friends. It's been about 5 hours since I got home, and now the car won't start. It...

    2.3 NA Transmission Compatibility

    I've seen some articles on how to swap to a T5. But before I decide to swap, I'd like to know what the stock tranny is in the 87-93 2.3L NA. Also what is the rearend? 8.8? 28 spline? What preformance parts are available for it? LSD/Posi?

    2.3 NA HP Ranges

    It seems that the HP ratings range form 88HP-105HP between 1987 & 1993. Was this acomplished in ECU programming? Can you just swap ECU's to get the HP's out of an '89? If so, what is the computer code?
