I wonder how they were able to drop the rag top in the back without interfering with the gas tank in the back?

Considering how many convertible threads we've had and how many times it has been posted over half a decade..... I can't say I'd step in if you get your pants lit up over this one rather than plugging the search button first.

I think it is a 5.0 liter with a supercharger if I remember correctly, dont think the stock hood would clear it.

LOL I knew it was coming. I've seen that car many times the last " 5 " years. There is a pic of the hood up with the motor somewhere.

Amini9 is a fine gent, we're just going to help him and every-singe-other person that hasn't quite got the hang of the magic button find it.

I got this new thing that let's me grab screens and instantly uploads them to free webspace so I don't have to do anything at all but point and click so it's much easier for me to show them the way now

There are 700 pages in the SC forum, you and many others stick to that first two or three I invite everyone to cruise back. Skip 20 pages at a time if you wish. You'll be amazed how much we can cover here in 8 years. Not for searching reasons, just think of how much you can learn to make your car more enjoyable.

Man, there are things in this forum that were going on in '03 that would blow your mind. It was a very good year.
