As the title says. I need something before June, so I've got time.
Thanks, Matt |

We picked up an 88 Turbo Coupe (5 speed) on Friday. After an alternator replacement, the alt overcharged the system and fried some fusible links. While waiting for a replacement, it was sideswiped by a drunk.
So now, It's ours. For better or worse. There's a guy on the Turbo T bird website who was very competitive in 3 races, while not touching the stock 140 kmile engine. He even bumped up the timing for his 2nd and 3rd races. So my brother and I are debating on whether or not to completely gut it and install a V8 setup, or to try to get a race or 2 out of the 2.3T unit. Either way, the car's going on a serious diet, with a target raceweight of 27-2800 lbs. I just saw that you have an SVO. One of the mods we're going to do is to install a master from one. Do you have a resource for parts that I might use? Also, If you've got any SVO buddies looking for an engine, I may have one for sale or trade. 30 kmiles on a rebuilt bottom end (030 over) w/ a slighly hotter cam.
