Pretty cool.
2.3, correct? Do you know if it came out of a SVO Mustang or Turbo Thunderbird?

Could of came in the truck they had it one year either 88 or 89 the way to tell is if it has two spark plugs per cylinder then it is the 100HP version and no distributor

It came out of the 88 turbo tbird, this truck is fun as hell when the boost comes on. It will bust the rear tires loose and get broadside. It has one sparkplug per cylinder and the distributor cap is new. I believe the rear tires are about a foot wide of tread.
