1994 Thunderbird SC 5.0 Cobra project car.
We picked up this car last year and it had a blown 3.8 supercharged 6 cylinder engine. We decided a nice 5.0 should take up residence in between the shock towers and built a 5.0 with fresh GT 40 iron heads, e303 camshaft installed 2 degree’s advanced with a frpp multi index timing chain. Up top we used a 95 Cobra intake and a 65mm throttle body to handle the induction chores. Engine managment is controlled by a WH4O pcm from a 95 Mustang GT. The engine harness is a 93 mn 12 and the body harness is 94 sc. We had to repin the engine harness to handle the 4R70W electronic transmission. To use this 2000 4r70w tranny we changed over the transmission harness and solenoids to the early style to work with the mustang pcm. The torque converter is a 9.5″ 3000 rpm stall lock up converter from ATS and the trans also has the infamous J-MOD done to the seperator plate for lightning fast shifts and added transmission life. The rear carrier has been rebuilt with 3.73 gears and traction lock. Watch for this car at shows and at Castrol Raceway near Edmonton AB.
