    3.27 Gear Worth It?

    While I'd agree that wanting to swap from 3.27 to 3.55 is a pointless discussion, this also is not what the OP is really asking about. Never having driven an AOD car though, I can't comment on whether or not 3.27 vs 3.55 is a noticeable difference acceleration wise. Essentially a stock 5.0...

    3.27 Gear Worth It?

    This, I swapped 2.73 rear to 3.55 in my car and honestly I plan on going backwards to a 3.08 or 3.27. OP, I'd probably still do the 3.73 - 3.27 swap with AOD for what it's going to cost you.

    4 Inch Cowl Hood

    IMHO it will look like garbage but I also don't care for any type of cowl hood on a fox, flat hood is the best look to me. Nice car btw.

    RANT!!! Tonight's New Peeve

    No, I am just truly asking why other people's welding skills seem to bother you as if it really has a direct effect on your life.

    What? Why does that even matter to you what other peoples welds look like?

    Yes Or No?

    I've got to say I've never been a fan of personalized plates myself, a good old DQB7093 would be perfect to me. I do like the plate frame though.

    Mechanic Woes

    I hear ya, I once "lost" a 3/8" ratchet under the hood of a s10 pickup as a teenager, only to be found several years later when swapping out a radiator.

    Mileage Figure

    Hard to say for sure since the speedo being off is a percentage not just a static 7mph, but if it were static 7mph off you really travelled 252 miles.

    Fox Door Hinge Backing Plate Inside Kick Panels?

    While removing the rotted out passenger door on my 93 I ended up snapping off 3 of the 4 bolts (2 were completely missing!) on the hinge to body bolts. I am having a hell of a time drilling these out without completely destroying the backing plate, plus the bottom one pictured below is pretty...

    If you find them and could let me know the thread size & pitch that would be perfect, I'll just get some fresh stainless hardware for it!

    Hatchback Lock Mechanism Bracket Replacement Hardware?

    Thanks I really appreciate it, Hoopty said he's going to have to look through his garage to locate them so if you do have them we can save him some time and possibly effort in cleaning his garage up lol.

    Hatchback Lock Mechanism Bracket Replacement Hardware?

    Pricey, I have the assembly I just need the 4 bolts that secure it (or the correct thread/pitch on the bolts and I'll just go get some at the hardware store). Does anyone have the thread/pitch on these guys?
