    C4 or C6 trans?

    will it fit without any modifications? Sure will......... Do you need it for a stock-mild small block application...sure don't...... I'd go for a C4 in your situation, unless you want to swap in a big block :)

    Why I enjoy Fox Stangs...

    when people ask what my 7.5 emblems mean, i just tell them its my 0-60 time. Sometimes they believe me :) Other people still yell 5 point slow at me, then the E-cutouts get opened up :p

    flowmaster super 44 ??

    they are the same as the super 40s just a tad smaller case, generally for small blocks and clearance issues, I have the super 40s on the 460 fox, and I will never change the mufflers, it sounds so wicked and deep, bigger case size means less room though under the car, so I'll see what i can do...

    Updates on my big block fox

    So i figured I'd stop by and show the progress of my new goodies, repainted the block and headers, sandblasted the intake and cleaned everything up again. I can't wait to start fabbing up my prototype 3" madrel bent tails with the flowmaster super 40s. The hood is the smallest i can go, i think...

    Crap!!!!!!!!

    that crappy cast aluminum is VERY difficult to TIG weld, so make sure you find someone good enough to do it, re-tap it. Dont rig it up with frikin JB weld.

    I hate to say it but I am considering selling the Stang and Getting a 97 Vette...

    Guys, its not always about brand loyalty and everything, i bought a 96 Z28 with a 6 speed because i wanted a good DD for summer. And i would DEFINITELY take my Z28 over a 5.0 with a T5, stock for stock its a lot faster, more comfy, T-tops aren't rare as hell, and more reliable, atleast GM put in...
