    MAF

    You dont have to convert. In my 87 I had tfs heads and intake in a stroker with a bunch of other goodies and left it SD. On the other hand I did have to purchase a custom ground cam for my setup that cost almost twice what a off the shelf cam would have. When I pulled the drivetrain to put in my...

    my firewall adjuster came out and i cant get it back in.

    Sorry just noticed the post about it flopping around. Looks like lube isn't your problem

    my firewall adjuster came out and i cant get it back in.

    Lube lots and lots of lube. Thats always the best way to get it back in when your having a hard time

    Knowing what I know now...

    I would have built a new stroker when I swapped everything from the 87 to 88. 351 based 408 or 427 with a mild cam and low boost. That and I wouldnt have sold my 85gt

    New to the Fox

    What are you guys talking about I've owned three foxbodies and I've never had a problem with any of them. Always an absolutely wonderful experience. The worst part is never having the oppurtunity to work on them because their so darn reliable.

    New meats!

    Thats where the crappy pic I have on here came from. I actually picked up an iphone today so I'll see if the picture quality is any better than my old blackberry's until I decide on a decent camera.

    New meats!

    Just the one in my profile pic. I've been looking at buying a decent camera for a while plus I've been having a hard time finding a power cord for my laptop. It seems universal cords don't work for samsung electronics. I actually built the motor and trans back in 98-99 and had it in my 87 gt for...

    tint suggestions

    20% all the way around is how all my vehicles are. I have a good friend that owns a tint shop and I think I remember him telling me he likes to use something lighter than 50% on windshields so it's not a problem for night driving but still kills the glare from passing motorists

    So you want a short throw shifter....

    Why are you using a shifter for an oar? Sounds like a tough way to paddle around the lake if you ask me.

    460 Suggestions

    We had a guy in our area that had a 91 Gt with a 460 and I have to say it looked cool at the cruise ins but he couldn't find a hood to fit that he liked and went through transmissions every couple thousand miles. Plus with anything but a full drag setup on the suspension the thing wouldn't hook...

    t56 or turbo 400?

    I agree about gearing with the t-56. I have 3:73's and would love to have a set of 3:55's in there. But I've been thinking of a 331 or 347 with maybe 8psi of boost or so and that has me even thinking 3:27's.

    Found a stack of 1/4 Time Slips from 17 Years ago.

    Thats cool man I worked at a dragstrip for about 8 years and it was wild that some of the older bracket racers would have timeslips in boxes in there trailer from 30 or 40 years ago. Back when there was no compulink or auto start and the tickets were hand written. All you got was 1/4 mile e.t...

    Looks like I'm gonna be able to pass on the Stang love

    Congratulations! I have 2 girls 8 and 3 and they both love my mustangs. If I don't pick the 3 year old up from daycare in one of them she gets upset. Also have a 5 month old boy so we'll see how much more car stuff I can get away with in years to come with the wife because of bonding time with...

    Unless you plan on drag racing alot I strongly suggest the t-56
