The crack part is throwing me off...

LOL, you guys stink!

The "Crack" rhymes with........think NASCAR.....

also is associated with Mustang Packages from dealer.....

Always wears a hat..................................................


Man, I cannot give any more clues on this without telling ya all what is happening to the 89 Bird!

I'll give ya all day to think about it and I post the answer tonight!

So...you got a motor from the "Cat In The Hat" huh...now I'm really jealous....I'm going to buy that red 5.0 LX now..


Mark Martin Rulez!!!!!!!

Crack rhymes with Roush about as good as Chevy rhymes with Ford.....

Cat In The Hat kind of rhymes crack

But that would break my mothers back.

Lets try to get things back on track

As for any more ideas, I lack!!!

You been in my medicine cabinet Eddie?!

(Yawn)........Huh......What?

Oh those little white pills.......

Those are "Mother's Little Helpers"......

i thought he was getting a YAK

Jack Roush, "Cat in the Hat"

Rick, ya got it!

Yep, ordered a 402R Roush Engine(351 stroked/bored) last night! Eight weeks from now, she'll be at my door! Then we got alot of work to do Lucy!

I figure by January she'll be ready to rock and roll!

Roush is just up the street from here.....

I can take some pictures while it is in the process of being built, if you want.....

Or maybe I can deliver it to your door.....

I need another reason to go to Florida.....

What'd I win?......First ride I hope..


P.S. I need Nicks Job!!

Well, got off the phone with Roush in Michigan and it looks like we might have a problem with the SC ft crossmember and the oil pan. The engine has to have the 8 qt pan. I told them let me look into how or what might fit under the ft end. The Roush oil pan is HUGE and has a ft mount drop.

Here is a pic of the engine:



I'm going to look into the mustang ft crossmember, but I might have to downsize in engine size. Roush is not sure a 402 is going to fit between the strut towers. These guys are a class act, the'll take the time to talk to you, look up specs for clearances, ect. Just awsome to work with. It is well worth the $$$$$$$$ if it is going to fit and work.

I do not want to"hack" away at the ft crossmember nor the fenderwells, I want it to look bone stock from the outside except for the cowl hood, ok maybe it might sound a little worked too

If I cannot do the 402R motor, I might have to do the 342R which is a bored/stroked 302 motor, but the issue is again the freaking oil pan.

The guy I talked to at Roush said he would give me a call back tomorrow after talking to the engineering department about options for oil pans and crossmembers.

I am afraid this might get too expensive, real fast. I sent them a deposit on the engine today and the rest is COD, but it is refundable.

Ok santee clause.... .....where's mine!

Will the front member off a 5.0 LX bird work???

O' Man that blew by me at 40,000 ft...... Nice motor...... Looks like it's worth about 6 or 8 Super Coupes... That thing is really going to rock if it all comes together. Keep us up to date..

Nick, Have you figured out what is going to fit yet? I would think you could fit the 402R in somehow, maybe a diff oil pan setup?

It is going to be too much of a pain in the a$$. I am selling the 89 as a rolling shell. I have it listed here on the board, if it does not sell to someone here, e-bay it goes. I would rather it go to someone whom will take of it and put it back together. I am just getting tired of these cars bro. One is enough for me.

That's a shame, you really made it a nice SC since you bought it. They do get to be a bit much sometimes. Our 89 is that way everything I do to it is a pain. The 93 is easy.... I wonder sometimes if it knows that I kept it from being parted and gave it a new life. Maybe it wanted the yard.

Good luck with the sale.
(Man I really wanted to touch that new motor)
