Hello, this is my te38 that I saved from some tweekers yard for $300. It's got 252,000 miles on it and it's still going even if the trans and axle are howling. Heck even the the ac works now. Sadly enough the engine is finally getting shitty and it is time for a replacement. I will be putting in a 20v silvertop and will be running a blacktop ecu with a COP conversion.
Looking sexy!

Nice choice on engine. Do you plan on using a water relocation kit or are you doing something different?

i like the 20 valve just no low end torque. It loved anything over 4500 rpms all day long

I am pondering the idea of pulling my 20V and putting it in my SR5 Sport Coupe... I just cant decide...
