Parts from the Yard (16V head)

I went to the local yard this weekend and found some good stuff. I got a 94-95 5.0 TB from a Thunderbird and a new dome light. But I also found a 16V Volvo head. I was wondering if it would be worth getting? Just to sell I dont have the time or skills to put it in my car. What do ya think ?

I guess that depends how cheap you can get it...

I can get it for about $50. I also found a AL drive shaft from a AWD Aerostar for $12. I think Im going back to get both,

Well the Volvo head is a no go. After about a hour of working on it I got the upper half taken off and then split my only 14mm socket in half trying to remove the lower head bolts. I was really pissed. But I did get the Al drive shaft for only $13 so it wasnt a total lost.


I know pics are always welcomed

T-Bird 5.0 TB




Aerostar AWD drive shaft

Yeah, I noticed on my intake that the circumference was really really crappy. Is this just a bolt on mod, or does it take finaguling?

I wanna know about the tb

I think I might just go ahead and score one at the yard today and try it myself.

Using a kit from Forced 4 you can bolt it to your upper intake. I got it for my turbo motor, I wouldnt put it on a NA motor. Its from a 94-95 5.0, I got it from a Thunderbird. Here is the link to Forced 4 if you want to take a look.

why would it not work well for a n/a motor?

Because the stock tb is plenty large for the stocker...hell even on the turbo engines they are large enough until well over the 300hp mark...
