I own a 1988 CSXT. I love the little car. Its great. But I if I could do it all over again I would have gotten a non #'d shadow or an 89-92 turbo Daytona or Lebaron GTC or GTS. Reason for the Daytona or the Lebaron is the fact that they are better looking cars and I like the interior of them

Several people on td.com have used them and love them. There are a few people who port our 8v heads and they also use them when doing the rebuild. There is a really long thread debating about it but the people I have talked to who are using them wouldn't go back. They are less noisy, and if your

i am looking to get a super60 turbo that has the .63ar housing and 3in Swingvalve. I would prefer one that needs rebuilt so that I can save some money instead of doing the T2 to Super 60 conversion. If no one has a super 60 I would like to get a .63 ar housing and a 3in swingvalve. The other day

It should be noted that those 500 cars with the cosworth head were TCs. The forged crank that came with those cars are different than the forged crank in T2 cars. It weighed about 20lbs or 40lbs more. --- SoCalShelbyGuy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sorry, I should have mentioned it is a 2.2 but I
