Interesting
Well, as usual, I am on looking for information on one thing and have been reading stuff on anything but the primary topic I am researching. Read this entire thread. In the time covered, SC's have gone from low priced cars, to cars, I believe are starting to regain some value. Maybe not, adjusted for inflation. Makes me want to go buy a '89 in Battleground for $600 and get it back on the road. ROFLMAO, maybe I should get my '95 SC 5spd back together first eh?
I have a 1997 Mustang with a SVO supercharger on it. Look real hard and you can see the snout. I like that part. To the unknowing, you wouldn't know a SC was on this car. Wouldn't a nicely prepared 4.6L with this SC in a t-bird SC with a T56? I would be all over a car like that, right after I win the lottery.
Since this thread was started Christmas of 2003, a lot more parts have become difficult to keep these cars on the road. Since engine management systems are probably only 100 times better now, it would be interesting, to me, on how to use current technology parts to keep our cars on the road. Soon, all the salvage parts we can get are going to dry up and we will be forced to change or park the car behind the barn to rot away.
This was an interesting read.
Now I will see if I can get back on track and see what I can find out about Mark VIII rear-ends in SC's and other interchange parts. How to convert to 5 on 4.5(know I have already read this, but didn't mark it), will a Mark VIII interior fit while I suck it up to redone my interior. I believe I can get complete leather interior for $200, if I shop.
