    My (our) plans...

    Yeah, there is no way a house is cheaper...but that depends on what you have for a down payment and what price of house you want. The nice thing about a house is the build up of equity and knowing you can be noisy or change things about it you don't like without much hassle. Even a small...

    Rim and tire gurus?

    Fox tubular control arms. I have figured out that a 17x9 rim with a 50mm offset will work, but I'm not sure about the backspacing. Is the offset dependent on the backspacing?

    Rim and tire gurus?

    1988 SVT Coupe Project

    Wasn't quite sure where to put this. 5.0? 4.6? I digress. This is a link to my website/blog about my current project. I am doing a complete swap of a 2003 Cobra into my 1988 coupe. I am pretty far into the project now (read: almost done), but it makes for a good read. Linky

    351 Fox Question

    Hello all, sorry that my first post is a tech request. Anyway, about 6 years ago I built a 1988 Coupe with a 351W Fuelie. I used a Performer RPM intake and plenum and managed to stuff it under the stock hood with HPM 3/4" drop mounts and a little creative surgery. See pic. That car was...
