My dad had an 84 turbo mustang gt (2.3 turbo but not an svo) and it blew up at 10k miles.

The warranty wouldnt cover it so he left the car in the middle of their lot at night with no plates and no keys.

how can it make more power in a sierra? Its a fucking motor, a motor makes power regardless of chassis.

Is that all of them, no its just one, mind you Ford changed the internals on that motor to get it past emmissions, and a few other cost cutting measures

no, actually it was a lot of them. Dealer wouldnt cover it because they already had too many to fix and it was costing them too much money.

I never said it would make more power I said the Chassis and the drivetrain and the suspension tunig not only led to big numbers but the ability to handle it.

Sure wheelies are cool, until you come up to a 90 degree turn

This thing will have a modifed HPP kit assembled by the pros @ speedINC, with a pro motor from john @ ModularPerformance... and already has a ProMotion 5-speed, all I have left is the rear and the fuel system (Big Stuff 3?).. hardly junk... more like a pro racecar

But thats cool ill clip your ass on pumpgas...

you'll like this one. its not a wagon anymore. more of a 4 door convertible, with a mustang dash, a 460 big block, and soon to have navigator bucket seats all the way around.

Did I say it was necessarily better, no, as I said they made a LOT of cost cuts.

But your saying that the same engine is cooler in one car than another just because it can go fast in a straight line? Wheres as the other car can do that and more?
