my 1986 svo the speedo was the same way lines only after 85mph. I think the mclarens were ok to have one because they were "technically" aftermarket "used" cars.

Could those things next to the valve covers be some kind of fancy covers for the down tubes that connect to the dual snorkles? The heat riser tubes?

Thats a good idea! I have never seen anothe one yet to know though.
Does anyone else have valve covers like this, or a dual snorkel set up still in ...

Kyle, 85 <> 86.

Stock Ford speakers are indeed more like 6x8...most people say 5x7. Why I do not know.

For 85, it seems that for some cars at least, asc put 6" round speakers in the back.

For 86, they went with 6x9 speakers...which were a hair larger than the stockers. Sandy's car has the 6x9 ...

So the stock valve covers have the ribs like that huh? I just figured they were aftermarket, like the intake and carb. I knew the speedo was because Sandy said they all had 140's in them. I can't imagine needing a 165 speedo, but with 2.73's it sounds like a CHALLENGE TO ME.......

I don't think so because my capri the air horns are basically dead, but the horn still honks like a factory sound.

All i can think of is it is some type of aftermarket ford valve cover with a crazy breather on each side, but at this point, your guess is as good as mine!! Maybe its a flux capaciter!!

Thats what i thought because my SVO only had them in the hatch. I mean someone did a nice job putting them in, but i guess my panels are cut up. Oh well, i never leave anything stock either!

so what is this dreaded floorboard crack?

Okay I have another speaker question for you guys.

In the back seat there are the 6" jensens and covers as shown in the pictures. THEN in the rear hatch there are 6" Pioneers that someone has installed. Did these cars come with speakers in the back seat AND the rear hatch?? Or has someone installed ...

Man Greg, yours looks way nicer than mine! I'm Jealous, but it gives me hope!! Why would anyone want to trash one of these Babies!! I Like the SVO in the background too! I just sold my 1986 SVO 2R 3 months ago! Best of Luck to ya!

Well last week i was driving down a country road in Newton Kansas and saw a capri in a field for sale. "cool a capri" i thought "don't see those too often." I didnt stop til i noticed the orange stripe though! I got up to it and noticed it said "McLaren" Now i was really interested! Long story short ...

Hey just wanted to say Hi to you guys! My name is Nathan Moore.
Last week i bought a 1985 ASC McLaren capri coupe.
I've already talked to sandy and negusm via email and the foureyedpride board. I've got several pictures to post of the car here, which i will do soon!
