    Need quick help with 86 T-bird turbo donor

    You should consider looking at the rear end. 8.8 rear > 7.5 rear. 86 works fine, I have an 86 in an 88 mustang now. Look for an LA3 & intercooler as first "upgrade" -Nick

    TC LX Coupe project...

    this swaps been done many a time. take the whole motor; drop the ecu from under the dash; maybe the rear end (8.8" and hopefully disc); part out the rest of the car. Compression check the TCoupe motor before You pull it. This way You'll have a good idea of wether or not You have to tear it...

    2.3 to 2.3T

    87-88 TC's are IHI's. Shuck that and pick up an earlier T3. The pistons are the difference in the motor. You'll need an ECU, VAM, Injectors, etc. Just get a donor car and pull everything from it, wheel the cherry picker around and drop it into Your car. Turboford.org is Your NEW BEST...

    I've decided to turbo my n/a 2.3L 91 motor

    Mani should bolt up. I wouldnt run more then 8 psi on the stock compression. At least not without a nice IC. get some kind of fuel mgmt, some forged pistons, and and the most efficient IC You can fit. With all of that... Good Luck :) -Nick

    Clutch shot?

    Yesterday I dad a friend play with the pedal while I was under her - the cable moves fine at the tranny. Which leads me to believe its not the cable or quadrant. I've kicked the pedal free as well, no gain. I was thinking that the clutch could be down to the rivets, but as was pointed out...
