What kinda car you got Tamapmax and thanx for the compliments...

I havent had to do any major wrenching to the car but yeah it is a pain to work on.

I was hoping to meet some local SC guys/gals...I see a couple runnin around but never on any of the forums...

You probably need to set the option for emails in your user profile. I get emails to all of mine.

I don't have a SC, but I've got a Turbo 2.3 Mustang. There's a few of us displacement challenged

on TR, we could almost form a sub-culture here.

I have problems getting them too. I have it set on in my profile but it seems to pick the threads it wants to send me notifications to.

Super Coupes are great until you have to work on them. You enjoy them alot less when you have to turn wrenches on them.

Ain't that the truth. My buddy just bought a '90 SC for a good price but immediately decided to change the leaky valve cover gaskets. That only took him about 2 weeks. Now he wants to put a smaller pulley on it without upgrading the exhaust. Won't be long and he'll be having fun with the head gaskets..

Me, I'd rather have a TurboCoupe. Speaking of TurboCoupes, I have some parts for sale off a 1988 TC. If anyone is interested, shoot me a PM.

The only time its been to the track it went a 14.22 at 100.7. The problem wasn't with the car, it was with the driver. I just couldn't get launching right and was only getting a 2.2 60' on slicks. I was just starting to get the feel for the car when the track day ended

I tried that already, along with a short physics lesson on why he needs to get the heat away from the heads which is why he needs exhaust. I've seen dyno graphs where people gained 50HP+ with headers and full exhaust. Apparently he doesn't care.
