i don't think that will happen, ford won't let the t-bird become a sedan. if there were a 2-door version of this that would be a different story...



in the 60's some where the Tbird was offered as a 4 door.

96 Contour Zetec it's faster than a period. According to my calculations the problem doesn't exist.

Don't worry Susan, happens to the best of us. I first checked it on my HP calculator, then looked it up. Here are a few more for sanity checks.

Your book may be a misprint. As for your prof., show him he's wrong and you may earn a bonus point or two!

No hard feelings, right Susan?

Very few of life's problems can not be solved with the reasonable application of more horsepower!

Off topic but thats my 1000th post!



I don;t think the block has anything to do with the 351. It has a 4v 5.4L, similar to the one in the U.S.

Maybe if the CEG signs a petition....we would finally have a decent replacement for the svt I believe that a company known as Tickford used to mod these cars. Known as the T-Series. Very sweet cars. i may be wrong but for some reason i remember reading something about them ceasing production though sux cause those were damn fine cars.

But from what I hear, Australians wish they had our Mustangs and Lightnings.
