Ford ThunderBird Ford thought they'd take their own stab at the nostalgia business. There are quite a few last-century icons that wear the blue oval. For a revival subject, why not use a car famous enough to have been the subject of Beach Boys songs, starred in George Lucas movies, and has been gone long enough to be missed? Why not indeed. In 2002, the Thunderbird was reborn.

Default tbird engine swap
I might be getting a 93 sc engine with about 85k on it for a nice price, and im wondering, how "easy" would it be to swap out my v6 for the sc? Mind you I have mild mechanical experience(tune ups, head gaskets, timing belts etc..) and my brother would be helping and he is a certified mechanic. Any suggestions?
