in all honesty the 7a is a pointless motor to mod unless your going turbo. in the long run youd be better off going with the swap.

just because its listed doesnt mean they'll have it. if you give them a call, theyll either say it is backordered or not made anymore, either way they wont have it and more than likely wont be able to get it.
and why the heck do you have a turbo timer?? lol --------------------  Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm... Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial |

you can't say that. because if you truly believe that then there is no point in doing up any car unless its a funny car. There is always something bigger and better. Its about what you're trying to achieve. |

Well you are still gonna need extra stuff that the superior kit doesn't come with. Things like an intercooler, piping, turbo manifold stuff like that. If you are going to turbo you are better off just sourcing all the parts it will be cheaper that way.

Yeah, I did this on my '86 GTS and it made a huge difference - also took out the power steering pump and same results. It was a little harder to turn at a dead stop but no big deal really - almost no difference at speed. Now that's dedication - no A-C in Houston! --------------------  |

Building a funny car is way out of anyone's price range. Of course there is always something bigger and better...but its not often that that bigger and better thing would cost the same amount as the smaller, lesser thing. The whole point of the 3s swap is that it is the cheapest way to get more power. Of course some people can do it cheaper by not swapping, but for most that is not the case. |

true that a funny car is out of budget, but an 89 mustang 5.0 isn't. Its probably cheaper and can put out a lot more. If the guy is trying to accomplish something with his 7A, then I encourage to get what he's looking for out of it. Its not always about being the fastest, it could also be trying to see what how far you can take what you already have. If you're gonna flame the kid for going with a 7A and not a 3S, then you have to flame anyone that does anything but a 3S swap. That means anyone who doesn't do a 3S swap, including coomer and his 4A swap. Everybody loves what he did, but nobody is getting on his case for not doing a 3S swap. |

I don't think I took it the wrong way. i agree the whole point of a 3S swap is the cheapest way to get more power. But the point in doing up a 7A is to get the most power out of a 7A. Not everyone just wants to go fast. Some want to be innovators and pioneers, and building a 7A to do the 1/4 mile in under 14secs would make him an innovator |

Not to be a jerk Junior but I think you did take it the wrong way. The whole point of me and Andason even mentioning the swap was because he wants to know what he can do to get power. It was a suggestion that should be taken into account...nothing more, there was absolutely no flaming going on and we're not TELLING him to do anything. It's just another one of the many options that everyone should know about. So please don't think that we were trying to put anyone down.

I'm not offended, and I think I was out of line when I said you guys were flaming. It just sounded like he was saying that its not worth doing unless its a 3S swap. If I took it the wrong way, I apologize.
