What engine is in a '94 V8 Thunderbird?
Spanky Monkey asked:
There's one locally for $400 that has a bad motor at 130k, but a good auto trans, and i'm looking to pull the independent rear suspension off as a whole to put into a kit car, but i was wondering if the engine is a block worth fixing up? Otherwise i would probably scrap the block, sell the transmission, and take the body to salvage, and go with a Chevy 350 and trans. My brother thinks the block in this car is the same one in a 5.0 mustang. If it is, and it's just bad wiring or the timing chain broke, maybe i will just stick with that and fix it up.

I'm sorry, but 94 was the first year for the 4.6, undeveloped and weak, and very expensive to rebuild.. to bad it's not a Supercoupe, with the supercharged 3.8 v6, that's a fun engine..

94-97 should have the 4.6, that's the first year they came out. Before that they had the 5.0. The Mustangs didn't change over to the 4.6 until 96. So a 96-98 mustang GT should have the same 4.6 liter non pi engine that's in the T-bird
