GM, Chrysler, and Ford all made a 3.8 in the same era, apparently ford's was the most unreliable, so I've heard.
My cousin who is a ford fan and dislikes chryslers was able to state that chrysler made a better 3.8 than ford, I almost fell over lol.
I've had a Chrysler 3.8 and it was a great engine. The 41TE bolted to it? That's a different story.. We put over 200k on that engine before selling it and it was still running strong. Never had an issue.
Installed 1.9 rockers, headers and a 2.5" cat back:th_winking:
The GM FWD 3.8 s/c is faster then Ford's RWD 3.8 s/c stock for stock, willing to bet on it.
its gonna come down to the driver maybe.
Quarter Mile times for "Box Stock" Thunderbird SC 's:
- With Automatic Transmission: They run between 15.7 to 16.0 seconds at around 86-88 mph.
- With Manual Transmission: They run between 15.4 to 15.7 seconds at around 88-90 mph.
Well by the time we get around to doing this I'll have my 3.6 on and headers so I'll walk him. It's a stock 5 speed car.
we all better be invited and have a big BBQ....
Roasted ford? Can you please pass the drivers tire and some bbq sauce

I backed out my yonaka tips about 1/2 inch so the exhaust was dumping right under the bumper. I swear I was smelling exhaust at idle. That's not good. Everything seems to be okay now.
Threw these on yesterday. My 16" tires were cracking pretty bad and the back two were worn out pretty bad on the inside. Getting an alignment later this week. Also noticed my SC belt wore a hole threw my coolant overflow hose. Should be ok for a few days?

Got my caprice home just barely. It died in the driveway. Then I changed the oil. It's been 7 years since it's been done.
