Pretty much, I've been intending to change my Honda's wiper motor for 2 months now but it's always hot or wet so it just never happened.

Orlando is where people from Houston or Baton Rouge go to cool off. I found summer there to be much more enjoyable without 90% humidity.

That was a work of art. It's hard to pick my favorite line, but "try to drift your car" and "That's a lowly gentleman right there!" were two favorites.

The FC to S13 ration is maybe 1:5. The two FCs in the flyer are both 13b powered.

I forgot to put the starting time on the flyer, I have to edit it tonight.

Dear Ford-Lovers: Anyone have any real knowledge about putting a T5 behind a Ford 5.4L 2V?

AFAIK only the T45 came with the mod motor bolt housing pre-2001. Not sure about input shaft lengths or splines. Neither would do well without shorter gears and a light weight car.

Yeah, I think you are right, it would be a T45.

I was given a free 5.4L and I am kinda thinking about scrapping it for a LS1 at this point. It's so heavy and the only good transmission is a T56.

I love mod motors but if it has less than 3V there's not really a point when 4Vs are dirt cheap. LSxs fit in everything way easier and have a lot more transmission adapters and better options for them as you know already.

Its not like the T5 is a good transmission but I can see if you have both of them why not throw em together.

It's going to take too much effort when I am swamped to swap in an engine I am not going to be happy with, free or not.

Now the search is for a free 4.6 2v.
