    Swapping a 6 speed into a fox.

    I wonder if a Cobra tranny could be made to work.

    I failed Ca smog today, need help!

    Too many people around here get all wound about nothing.

    My '88 LX a complete redo?

    True. You could put some of that saved money there too.

    Swapping a 6 speed into a fox.

    Anybody heard of this before? It would be awesome to have a 6 speed Fox. If anybody has any info on this, that would be awesome. :flag:

    My '88 LX a complete redo?

    Forged components don't effect reliability one bit unless you have pushed your power output to the point that you have exceeded the limits of the stock internals. You won't reach this limit with the HP numbers you are shooting for. Forged internals can be the pistons, rods, crank, or all of...

    Exactly. That's not including any gaskets, or other misc parts that you always end up needing along the way but didn't count on at the start.

    My '88 LX a complete redo?

    I don't think you can build a good solid stroker for 3 or even 4k though.

    My '88 LX a complete redo?

    Nice looking car. You should be able to easily get over the 300 HP mark for 3K, no problemo. I don't think you need to waste the money on the forged internals unless you are looking to head into the 400+ HP area. Forged pistons may not be a bad idea, but not the rods and crank and all of...

    Try that Guaranteed To Pass additive. If it doesn't work, they will give you double your money back.

    Help me choose a cam.

    BTW, throttle response is also important. I like those motors that wake up the instant you floor it. :D

    Does this actually work?

    If you want the stock specs, just give a parts store a ring and they can tell you what it is for your car. I'd tell you myself but I'm not at work right now.

    Help me choose a cam.

    Thanks, I'll look into it.

    Places to Drive Fast?

    They didn't used to have a speed limit here, but the guideline was still "safe and prudent". They quickly figured out that people had no idea what that meant. :rolleyes:

    Does this actually work?

    I'm not saying that they don't work, I'm just saying that the reason they work well does not have anything to do with the number of straps, but rather the shape. The electrode will only send spark to one strap, the one closest to it (I know, I've tested them). You don't gap them because there...

    Help me choose a cam.

    I am attempting to build an engine with as much off the line punch as possible. I'm a acceleration junky, not so much a speed freak. I would like to have some high RPM potential too. Keep in mind that at some point I will more than likely be going with a set of aluminum heads from the...

    Does this actually work?

    It seems like the only difference it would make would just be a more complete burn. I would guess that this would translate into a little bit better gas milege too. I think the reason that the Bosh plugs performed better is because the straps sort of straddle the electrode from the side...

    Since I'm new, A little about me and my car.

    I can't remember the designation/name of my heads, I'll try to get that. They where used by Lincon on many of the hevier cars that they madin in the early to mid 90's. They have the heart shaped cumbustion chambers. I'll see If I can get more info posted on them. At any rate, I won't be running...

    Since I'm new, A little about me and my car.

    So you're saying to just shift at a higher RPM with the bigger cam, right?

    Since I'm new, A little about me and my car.

    The name of the game for me is torque, yes. Horsepower is worthless without in IMO. Especially if you want to take people off the line, and if your an acceleration junkie. :D I am, LOL.

    Is it just me, or do they all look the same?

    I think I'll stick with the Stang thanks. :D
