    That would just defeat the whole arguement that his SHO can beat my 626. If that's the case, I have another vehicle that could definately take that TSC. I wasn't playing that game.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    Was just talkin SHO...not any other Fords...Motorcraft stuff usually reaks, but it's almost the best thing for the SHOs.

    Blackshine...I just brought rotary up as an example...I'm going to rotory my 929! Believe dat!

    Oh, and ONEBAD...the SC is spooling about 18lbs...haven't had it dynoed yet, still waiting to put a reground cam in it and am depating if Imma take is .30 over, but I think it could take the SHO. I'm just sayin.
    *why do we continue Ford on Ford crimes?*

    Which bodystyle 929 do you have? And are you keeping it auto or you throwing in the 5 speed as well? You should try to convince JITB to make his rotary as well.

    I've got the HD 929, and am looking to go with the 20B from the JC Cosmo and mate it with the 5-speed. I may only be able to afford the 13B, but either way, I'll be doing better than the 3.0 that's in it!

    Oh, and JITB can do as he wiil, but I won't convince him to go rotary. LOL...I wouldn't have the distinction of being the only rotary 9ine around if I did.

    there is a cosmo front clip for 4500$.. I woudlnt mind going rotary, but putting a turbo 13b in the 9, is gonna make it a tug boat, unless you got a nice fat potato on the side. The 20B would be the choice, its just soo expensive.

    what year is yours< and color? and how is your suspension?

    Mine is a 93, Black/Tan & Brown, and my suspension is still pretty stout. It's got 209K on the clock, and it's still pretty dayum strong, but it's beginning to leak from every possible orafice of the engine. I had a 94 w/80K original miles, but my wife wrecked it...was going to keep the drivetrain for a swap, but sold if wrecked for as much as I paid for the 93, so I couldn't be mad at it.

    Little? Its a 4 door family sedan man.

    They run 15s-ish stock. There has been a few factory beasts that hit the 14s. Back when these cars came out the power output and speed specs were admirable, but by todays standards they are by no means "fast." Though, for an old Ford taurus they will still put the whoop on a lot of todays rice burners.
