    2.3 vs 5.0?

    Well I did get mine cheap and it is my daily driver because of the mpg. The body is fairly solid and in the process of being fixed, but I do stereo competing so it will never go fast with all my equipment/weight. Most of the time I don't even hear the revs over the 150+ Db.

    2.3 vs 5.0?

    I know motorcycles have the little wave thing... I know the Jeep people have the wave thing. Why is it when I go by a fox body they feel the need to rev their v8? Is it a "my penis is bigger" thing or is it our version of the wave? I even sport the 2.3 emblem. I need to know if I need to be...

    Rear Hatch

    4stanger you have to tell me how you did your body work. It looks great. I went to a shop this past week ant they quoted me "full body work and paint job " $6100. I've decided to do the body work myself, but I'm not 100% sure on how to do it right.

    Rear Hatch

    Thanx for the help, any will be greatly appreciated. I tried Pierce on 31, but they are not helpful at all. I went there looking for a Volvo turbo and cooler and "they didn't have any". Funny thing is I found one about 20 yards from the front door. Upon asking how much they wanted for it, I...

    oil lines?

    I know there are oil lines going to the turbo, but as I did a tune up today I looked for a place where these lines might go and I didn't see any. Do I need to do a full-on engine swap or are they there and I just don't see them. I've also read about water lines and again I don't see a place...

    Volvo??

    I found a Volvo 760 at a local junk yard. Is the only thing to use from a Volvo the intercooler. The turbo won't work right? The guy said he wanted $150 for the turbo and intercooler, but if I only need the cooler maybe I can talk him down. Thank you
