![]() Hello everyone,
I just picked up my car this weekend! I have been waiting to get it home, and it's finally here. 83 GLX Convertible (White/red interior). Anyway, I have a question. I am putting an engine and tranny from a 85 Crown Vic into my car and a question popped up. When I was re-reading Fletch 5.0's v8 swap page, he mentioned that I need a distributor from a 85 stick car. Could I use the one that's on there now or do I need to change this? And how much is a new one? I am aquiring all of my exhaust parts (factory headers, h-pipe, and fac. mufflers/pipes) and I need to have them put on. Can I do this myself, or do I need to go to a muffler shop and have them do it for me? Is it going to be expensive for them to do that because I need to save as much money as I can. But if I can't, I gusss that I will have to send it to the shop. Also, When the previous owner took the engine and tranny out, he left some linkage at the shifter in the car. Could I use this with the AOD off of the Crown Vic. or do I have to go and get one off of another stang. I'm dying to get her running before Christmas! All help and comments are appreciated. Thanks, Jason C. ------------------ |
