A little update on this one. I have made a deal to buy the correct equipment for the car. Also I am going to be picking up a 86 convertible that is a 5.0 car tomorrow. The body is shot on it along with the interior but the engine and all the accessory right down to the smog pump and dual snorkel 5.0 EFI air clear is on it. Now I just have to get the time off to go pick the car up from Joe and equipment up.

If memory serves me right the '86 CFI (not EFI) cars (automatic only) would have the dual snorkel intake setup. This was like a 1 or 2 year only deal, kind of a rare bird. It would get you up and running, but wouldn't be technically correct for a '86 FHP.

Dual snorkel was 1982-85, regardless of induction type. 1984-85 was CFI for auto trans and 4V for manual trans.

1986 was SEFI for auto and trans. The intake tract come from the passenger side only, and the the air filter/box was mounted to the passenger side inner fender.

So the car must be a 85 instead or a 86. It does have an auto in it. I am getting it because it has ever thing there. I will change it over to SEFI that is correct for the year of the car. I will be rebuilding a 4 cylinder T5 that I have to V8 specks for the car also. On that subject does any one have a bell housing?

John, I started a folder on your SSP for our VIN Project, including the AC report you posted in the VIN thread. Do you have a decent picture of the VIN label on the driver's door you can post? I'd like to confirm the DSO. Are there any FHP property stickers or other agency markers/features?

I'll try to get a readable picture of the data sticker. The numbers are hard to read on it even before you take a picture. So far I have not found any FHP property tags. In some of the pictures of the roof and a post you can see the tan paint. The places where the paint is chipped on drivers door shows black over tan paint.
From what Joe told me and auto check confirm part of the store. Is that the car was bought by an x-trooper and taken to NY. There the car was converted to areo nose and mass air. At some point it end up in an impound yard. The next person turned it into a drag car. Then Joe picked it up. Also interior converted to black, but can still find hints of the beige color on dash and the one coat hook.

Correct me if I am wrong, after looking at the VIN it seems to be an 83. Somebody on .org has a Carfax on it from 2010.
