Looking for some info on the 93 Mark VIII modifications that are possible.

Engine/B]: superchargers/Turbo chargers/ Cams/ect: where can I get them, what ones work for our application. TRANNY or anything else we must beef up.......

Exterior Modifications: Body kits/ Air ride suspension( aftermarket) /Hoods/ Wheel tire combo( what back spacing do we have and total size of tire and rim in " )

Interior modifications: Aftermarket leather( or replacement leather ) crazy stereo ideas or pictures/ anything else?

Thank you for your time and information.
*Maybe make this a sticky so that its available for everyone to see in the future.*
 
Transmission: Do a "J-Mod" (see TCCoA for tech article). Basically, you drill a few holes in the seperator plate, remove the lower 1-2 and 2-3 springs, get a deeper tranny pan, and for your year, you'll probably want to upgrade the accumulator pistons before they fail. Fill with Mercon V fluid!

Torque converter: Go with 3000+ Stall. Edge, Art Carr, and Precision are the top TC's for 4R70W's.

N/A:
Set of 03 Terminator heads from a Marauder, Mach, Aviator, or Cobra. Get a ported 2001 Cobra intake with billet fuel rails/ regulator, etc. Get your block bored .020 over with Mahle 10cc forged pistons, Manley rods, and a Cobra crank. You can get all that from Hyland, eBay, or from the "For Sale" ads in the forums.

Supercharged:
96-98 Cobra intake, Vortech, Powerdyne, Paxton, Kenne Bell twin-screw are all good. A Vortech tuner kit (everything except injectors, chip, pumps, etc) will run you around $2,400 at Cool Blue Performance.

Cams:
Not exactly a cost-worthy upgrade in these cars, unless you go extreme high performance or Turbo. But for N/A, Navigator intake cams and 01 Cobra exhaust side cams help make extra low-end torque due to longer duration. Those will come with the 03 Cobra heads. Don't forget the high-stall TC, exhaust, chip when upgrading to high performance cams!

Custom exhaust, x-pipe, mufflers, etc. Kooks 3/4 length headers from Supercoupe Performance.

Rear differential: 4:10's should be minumum. Trac-lok recommeneded, of course.

Custom Wheels Market sells aftermarket wheels for our cars for a low price and they driectly bolt-on.

Chips: see SCT. Calibrator 2
