So what year was this Magazine printed?
I allways thought that the EA 351 GT was the only V8 that was put into the EAs. I would suppose this was a test mule for the first EB 'XR8's? EDIT: They thought the progression of models from the EA was going to be the 'EC' ![]()

The article is from AUSTRALIAN ROAD & TRACK February 1991
I also have a Wheels Mag from July 1990 with a EA V8 on the cover EDIT - It's only an article on the forthcoming V8- not a vehicle tested |

Too bad the Australian 5.0L was lower power (165kw supposedly and 388Nm) than the Mustang version.

uh, because the orange/amber ones look crap in my opinion, looks like the car is stuck in the 80's. But looking at your avatar, id guess you are a fan of them....

clear side indicators should be the first mod...
$25 and they look far better than the 80s amber fugdicators. clear side indicators you buy most of the time arent the same as genuine XR ones. its no different to bootlip spoilers on eas. they look great. |

I just think that if they put all the body kit on these cars etc, they could have put clear indicators too, just to make it look like all new technology.
