so when are you gathering stuff up for the HO Explorer Swap. An HO will look damn nice under that hood.

well I dont really know I might get to it someday or I might not. Unlike most ppl im not horribly disappointed with the lopo. I dont feel that its as severly underpowered as most ppl do I had an aero with the 4.6 and felt that it was a plenty powerful car, and honestly for some reason my merc with the 5.0 feels like it has more power especially on the bottom end. I really have nothing to complain about as far as the lopo goes. The only thing keeping this car from being perfect in my opinion is the fact that it has leather seats. I need to find some nice burgundy cloth seats maybe even towny signature seats wouldnt that be nice.

Replaced alternator today for the second time. First was about a month after I bought the car it still had the original one on it so I got a new 65 amper from oreilly auto parts. Noticed the other day that the lights were dimming on acceleration took it in and had the battery and alt tested the battery was fine alt was not passing. So they warantied it out thank god it had a lifetime warranty and now no more dimming lights. My buddy that works there even helped me change it out in the parking lot.

I have no wiring abilities whatsoever and I cant think of anyone I know around me whom I trust with such things.

prep the 3G alt before hand. You may need to drill out the mount hole on the bottom (I had to for my 88) depending on what the 3G comes from. The t-bird and Mustang ones are direct fit though.
