New guy here!

Hey everyone, I'm Mike from Bowling Green, KY. Just recently blew the engine in my Volvo messing with a trans am and now I have picked up a 95 Mark VIII. I do not know a whole lot about american cars as far as performance goes but I have wanted to learn for a long time. Now I have a change to mess with some muscle. What kind of parts are out there for the Mark VIII?

Thanks!

Welcome...

The first thing you should do is make sure all the maintenance is up to date...
Transmission Fluid
Coolant
Spark Plugs,Wires
Oil etc.
Run some Sea-foam through the car.


Then the best bang for the buck is to supercharge the Mark... everything else will pretty much kill your gas mileage while delivering moderate gains.

Welcome, have fun with it!

There are like almost no parts for the Mark VIII. However, a sampling of 96-98 Cobra parts and some T-bird components will give you a performance boost. See www.supercoupeperformance.com for some ideas.

correction, the year is a 1993. Just physically got the title today. Anyways its a great car, it has 54k miles on it! i installed a brand new battery, oil change, checked fluids etc... on this car where is the best place to put seafoam, on my other car it is turbo and i suck it in through one of the turbo vacuum lines. where is a good site for a supercharger??

Thanks!

The PCV valve on the drivers side has a vacum hose. Best spot.

hey mines the saem red as yours!

 

[billcu]

Nice color.

What color is the interior? Mine is Opal Grey.

I'm not sure what Opal means though because I've heard of Opal white, Opal black, and Opal grey.

If your interior is black, it's a rare combination for the red garnet glaze.

mine is grey as well.
