    2.3T engine out of a Saab into a stang?

    Hey guys! This guy is gonna sell me a 93 lx 4cly for cheap. I was wanting to put a 2.3T into the car. I'm stationed in Germany so it's kinda tough to get one from the states...out of a t-bird or such. Will the 2.3t out of a 9000 Saab fit? I noticed lots of people use their IC so I...

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    What about parts like t-stat and t-stat housing? I'm sure I'll need new ones since they're probably a lot bigger right?

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    Thanks that would be great. I have a small block chevy book that has a parts list but I'm sure there are some differences.

    Post em up man..as soon as you can!lol I'm getting depressed having the 460 short-block sitting in front of me while I'm waiting on parts for it. I need some motivation. BTW: did you have a reference book or something to help you when you picked all the parts? I know that network site...

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    Holy cow that's crazy! 1/4 throttle and you already spin. Is there anytime at all when you can give it full throttle? It looks like you have pretty skinny tires though too. Nitto 555r tires should help.

    You said you bolted the stock shifter right to the c4. You mean the AOD stock shifter right? Also what kind of traction issues are you having? Can you mash it at idle or will they just spin? I'm asking because I'll be just as heavy with dove-c cast iron heads.

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    Did you modify the P/S and alt brackets yourself? I know there's a guy on that 385 series network site that's selling modified brackets but his prices are a bit outrageous to say the least. BTW...do you have aol aim explodinggopher? I'd like to talk to you about the 460 project if you don't...

    Can you reuse your old alternator that you had on the 302? Will it fit the new 460 alt. bracket? How about P/S? Does the Serpentine belt have the same routing?

    My Big Block Fox Finished Product...56k Warning

    Oh man I am dying to hear that set-up! I'm putting spintechs on and am hoping to start my 460 project soon. BTW...does anybody make shorty headers for the 460 in a fox swap? I've already got a complete Dr gas exhaust set-up with an x-pipe that's built for shorty headers.

    H/C/I 347 stroker vs 302 H/C/I(?)

    I guess I worded my post wrong. You can obviously use the same parts on a 347..but it wouldn't make sense to get the stroker. My question is really.....is it worth it to get the stroker, pay the extra money if you might see 40 whp more...plus I'm sure the better flowing heads, intake etc are...

    H/C/I 347 stroker vs 302 H/C/I(?)

    I have a question... I've been reading up on the 347 and was leaning towards it but.... It doesn't seem to me that an H/C/I 347 puts out much more than an H/C/I 302. I understand you can't use the same 302 H/C/I parts on a 347 but is it worth it? If you don't get much more...

    rear seat removal question

    People say about 40-50 lbs with all the brackets, seatbelts etc. It didn't seem that heavy to me. Just took mine out yesterday. And bro, I FEEL you on taking more than 1 person with me. I friggin hate it. Plus they usually have dirty shoes, then they complain about the space, usually have...

    Full race-stripped interior...

    Yes I'm gonna run it with one seat. gojonnygo: I'm stationed in Germany..they won't have those regulations. Plus I'll run it on the street a lot...so I'll have to keep the glass.

    Full race-stripped interior...

    Hey guys Does anybody know of any fox bodies that have their interior stripped to the bare minimum? I'm talking no carpet, no dash, no console..etc. Just the gauges, steering and whatever else you need. I'm looking into going full race trim with mine and was wondering if anybody had any...

    Yup I definitely heard it slow down. It cranked fairly quickly the first 2 turns and slows down considerably after that.

    Compression test results...

    Well the last time it really RAN was like 1 month or 2 ago. I just turned it on and drove it for a mile maybe. I took out all the plugs at once. A battery charger?It's a brand spankin new red top. Would that really be the problem? What about the starter?

    Compression test results...

    Ummm thanks....but I already knew all that. My main question was targeting the starter. And also if a cold engine with forged pistons can yield results like that. I couldn't do it at operating temp. OH and also ..I did another check on the cylinder that had 109 psi and this time it...

    Decision: new block or use old 302?

    I'm about to do a compression test. I pulled 7 of the spark plugs ( that last one on the passenger side at the firewall is a PITA!) If the test turns out alright I'm thinking about just putting a blower on it and seeing if I'm satisfied with the power. (I've never driven anything more powerful...
