RE: Got a Question
Where can i find kits. This is for a buddy his car got tboned and he found another one just has a 4cyl in it. Correct me if Im wrong but i thought that ford did not put a 4cyl in the mustang after the late 80's. Im a Vette guy so I dont know much about mustangs. I know with chevy most will bolt right up. So any help is appriciated. thanks

you car has a 7.5 inch rear end. for the swap, you need a 8.8. the 7.5 will work, but once you hook up it will be toast.

im pretty sure that in 86 the 5.0 models were upgraded to a 8.8, but the 4 cyls stayed at 7.5. you could be right though. it would be pointless to have an 8.8 on a little 2.3.
