Hey Dave, nice SC

What is it a 93? Probably an auto. Sorry, I used to own a 95 LX w/ 4.6 modified. Probably ran faster than my new 305 Iroc Z28. But the foglights look cool. What wattage bulbs are they?
Thanx

95lx with a 4.6???? That doesn't sound right. lx's come with 3.8 liters.

wrong!

89-93 LX's came with 3.8s and 5.0s the 91-92 Sports came with 5.0s only, the 94-97 LX's came with 3.8s and 4.6 SOHC's and the 96/97 Sports only came with 4.6 SOHC. Don't believe me, check out www.tccoa.com

calm down buddy!! Good info though. I obviously don't know much about fords I know the new lx's only come with 3.8s.
BTW-I wasn't totally wrong was I. I said lx's come with 3.8's. I didn't say they didn't come with 4.6s

Being a big fox owner myself(lincoln mark VII) I think he's talking about a thunderbird and not a mustang. Cause in 89-93 mustangs came with either a 2.3 4 cyl or a 5.0 as far as I know. But it would make more sense saying the thunderbird came with a 3.8 in those years because it did and the 5.0 non-HO was an option.

Cobrakiller,
Hey there, I'm in bellingham and was wondering if you know anyone who does inspections. I have an 1982 and it has no cat or any other emission stuff. I know it's emission exempt however I'm hearing I need a cat and I was planning on running two 2 1/2 down the car. Do you know anyone?

I got my car inspected at a local Getty gas station in somerset,MA the habibs just threw the IROC on there and passed me with no cat. The lincoln i had inspected before i took the cats off.

Yep you were right I've never seen a factory LX mustang from the SN95 era that was a 5.0 or 4.6 mod motor. Kinda sad if you ask me since the LX was the king of the mustangs back in the fox body era.
