  • sold the TGP - non 60* content inside

    i sold the turbo grand prix over the summer and picked up a non 60* non GM



    i dunno wtf i'm doing with a ford other than i like p71 vics. the 4.6 is pretty boring and huge/heavy for the displacement.

      Yeah, they only make 239 hp stock, barely enough power for such a heavy car. Lots of room for improvement. Mustang DOHC heads should bolt up just fine, if the Marauder is any indication. The sky's the limit from there.

      I don't get the masturbation over the Interceptors though. Sure, they've got a heavier duty cooling system and suspension as well as a more aggressive rear end than a civvie, but they don't make any more power than an LX Sport, and they're more likely to have a ruined transmission from all the city driving and hard acceleration they're made to do. Plus you can't really rely on the odometer as an indication of how long it's been in service; they're generally only shut down at the end of a shift or when being refueled.
