3.8 1990SC

I was hoping some of you infromative people out there could help me???? My wife and I are reworking my sons car in memory of him as we lost him one year ago....I'm still trying to decide whether to keep the 3.8 or drop in a bigger motor..(maybe a...302, 347, 393 ?). What type of engines will easily drop in? any mods to the frame? We want to make this a show car...but yet still have it streetable....Any suggestions?

Thank's

Dave

I would retain the 3.8. If you want all show, talk to George Davenport about his SC's build up. it is a piece of art!!!!

If it is an auto, the 91 Cougar XR-7 was a 5.0, so that motor will fit fine. Personally I would keep the 3.8. It actually has more power in the lower RPM ranges and has more UNIQUE appeal for a show car. If it is a 5spd, then there should be no question about keeping the V6. Most importantly, have fun!

a carburated 347 stroker would fit and work fine. some guy in MMFF had a 89up body style with this setup and stock live axle doing really low ET's
