    <--93 or 94-95 5.0s?

    All depends on what you're looking for in the car. Performance-wise, the fox will get you faster for less $ though there are just about as many mods for the 94-95. I bought mine due to the style (though id love a fox in my driveway too) and the interior since I drive it every semi-nice day. It's...

    FRPP 345 hp crate long block or H/C/I?

    I haven't installed my HCI combo yet so I'll prolly spend another 30-40 on little parts but all together I spent 2200 for everything. Just search around and find good deals. I got everything but the cam and intake adapter used, but it's all in mint condition. I vote HCI for the price.

    Differential Dampner?

    Haven't had it on my car for the 2-1/2 years I've owned it and never had any issues. Was prolly off before that too.

    Throttle Body Help!

    I tried looking at them but couldn't really see a difference. So I just threw it on anyway and can definetly feel a difference. Thanks anyway guys. One more thing, the spring on top dropped down the side of the engine and I can't find it anywhere. Took it for a drive and didn't notice anything...

    Throttle Body Help!

    I just got my new FMS throttle body that I bought off of ebay. THe seller said it was a 65mm TB so I bought it. Was just wondering if there is any way to tell if its a 65mm or a stocker. I only ask because they have all the same stickers with the same #'s, and I would ahve thought they would be...

    Ear piercing whistle

    I don't know if its the same thing, but when I took my car out of the garage this spring and started driving it around again, there was also a VERY loud high pitched noise. It also came only at idle. Don't know if its a smart thing to do, but i just dripped some motor oil on the belt since thats...

    clunking in rear!

    Kinda sounds like what i heard in my truck when i first bought it. It was caused by the gears not fitting just right and there would be backlash whenever I hit the gas. i just brought it to a shop to install new ones and it cleared it up. But check all the cheaper possibilities like a loose...

    This combo seem good?

    As long as you don't have a high-milage engine, the stock lifters should be ok. Just checkem before you put it all back together.

    new mustag owner

    Looks nice from what I can see. Congrats on the purchase! I'd say gears (4.10's with teh AOD) and exhaust for the first couple mods. Maybe a new shifter if it hasn't been changed already.

    This combo seem good?

    From what i've read, Twisted Wedges have outperformed the edelbrocks and you can find them for less. Maybe someone has some flow #'s? Either way you'll be happy.

    weight difference?

    Not sure about exact #'s but the notchback foxes are the lightest there are. A 94-95 5.0 would be around 3400 or so while the notch would be close to 3000. I've heard of 2700-2800 notches with gutted interiors.

    Supercharging stock?

    I have an X and american thunder catback, love the sound. Its gurgles alot, sounds pissed at WOT. H's are alot deeper sounding...its all personal preferance.

    1 chambers??

    I wouldn't put them on a street car, just do HCI and make it loud that way. Kinda ricey to make your car sound like a top fuel dragster without the power to back it up. From the cars i've heard sporting 1 chambers, they sound kinda like an old pickup until you're flooring it (which does send...

    OT, bizzare street racing story

    I definetly didn't see that coming.

    what to do?

    I'd think porting the stockers and some suspension work would get you into the 13's. Maybe some DR's to make sure.

    Supercharging stock?

    As far as I know, the fuel system and MAF are the only things you neeed to change, but a new exhaust would really help you out on a blown application.
