    Mach 1 03 wheels on a Fox??

    Do the wheels look that tucked in? It does have the spacers. I guess I never really compared it to another foxbody. I figured they look like that cause its been lowered. Here are some closer shots of the front and back. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

    Mach 1 03 wheels on a Fox??

    I thought about taking the cobra badges off after I put them on. Main reason I put them on was to match the cobra intake under the hood.

    Mach 1 03 wheels on a Fox??

    The car was lowered a tad all the way around to give it a more sleek look. Its got 235/45/17 up front that barely clear the wheel wells and out back its got 245/45/17. How do you like the tucked in look?

    No Mufflers

    lol, thanks for the advice guys. Whats funny is that I got pulled over when I was 18 in my 70 Chevelle and I got a ticket for a straight pipe ordinance and a noise ordinance. That was from opening up my 3" cutouts and riding first gear thru town. :lol: Maybe I will think twice about...

    Mach 1 03 wheels on a Fox??

    I had a hard time deciding on wheels for the 5 lug conv. for my 93. I coudn't decide on either the bullit Gt wheels. cobra 03 wheels, or the mach one 03 wheels. Finally I ran into a set of mach one 03's that I couldnt pass up for the price. The odd thing is that I have never seen the mach...

    No Mufflers

    Do any of you guys run no mufflers on your stangs? I currently have spintech mufflers with an X pipe with no cats and it sounds nice but I would like more noise. I was thinking about unblolting the mufflers and running it straight with the x pipe or just straight without the x pipe. It would...

    should I trade my stang for this notch

    Trade it. It's a Notch. It was a 4 banger but that means it wasn't beat.

    Valve Covers that Clear 1.7 RR

    I also heard the 1.7 Roller rockers can be noisy, period. I am going to still pull the covers off this week when i get time and make sure they are not hitting anything. Thanks for the advice!

    Valve Covers that Clear 1.7 RR

    I'll have to pull the covers to find out. I am not looking forward to pulling the covers, because it looks like a little more pain in the a$$ than a standard carbureted smallblock. By the looks of it, it looks like I might need to pull the upper intake and some other stuff just to get the...

    Valve Covers that Clear 1.7 RR

    I have the 1.7 roller rockers and it seems like they are making contact somewhere in the stock valve covers. They are pretty noisy. I believe the previous owner beat out the baffles and grinded them down where they may hit, but I am not sure. Do any of you guys no if the cobra valve covers...

    Good 5 spd. for a Fox

    I am getting ready to convert to a 5speed and I keep hearing all T5's are garbage. Ive looked at Borg Warners, World Class, tremec, and etc. I was looking at the TKO 500 which are suppose to be the best, but I don't want to spend 2000 on a conversion. My budget is about $700. What is a good...

    10w30 oil

    I am about due for an oil change. I usually use the standard 10w30 valvoline, but I was just wondering what kind of oil you guys use in your 5.0 ponies. Thanks

    Why I enjoy Fox Stangs...

    Very true. When you do see them most of them are beaten to hell primered with a 6 inch cowl. Rarely they are seen well taken care of and babied like the ones we have on the forum.

    Whos running cutouts?

    I thought about putting a couple of dumps on my stang but I like the sound of my spintech exhaust setup with the x pipe way to much to just throw in some cutouts. I got a 70 Chevelle with Flowtech 3" Cutouts with a mild 350 and I rarely drive it with them capped. In the 5 summers of driving...
