    Foxbody Suspension

    There is so much truth in this. When I got the SFC's installed on my 91, I could tell immediately as I was pulling away from the shop that the car was different. It felt a lot better, despite the stock 150K mile suspension.

    "different" Wheels Pics $$$$

    Same here on my 91. It is the rim on the lower A arm though in my case.

    Fox Quiet Super Chargers???

    I put a Pypes "Pype-Bomb" CB on my car. It has LT's, O/R H-pipe, and no drone. Nice and deep at idle. Not to terribly raspy, very subtle at the highway speeds where my Flowmasters would deafen me.

    1990 Fox Body State Patrol Car Rebuild Or Not ?

    Build a car to enjoy it, not to make it worth more money. Totally perverts the car hobby IMO.

    Electrical 93 Lx 5.0 Timing Advance Issues Need Help Bad

    I had a very similar issue that turned out to be a red-top with an intermittent cell. Doesn't sound like your problem though. Pull your ignition switch and see what it looks like. These cars start to do all kinds of screwy stuff when that switch goes bad. I had to replace mine a few weeks ago...

    Project: Swapping 94 Gt drivetrain to 1999 V6 Vert chassis

    If you plan to build a boosted 347 seriously consider a Dart block. I did a stock block 347 and I regret it now.

    New Guy Looking For A 5.0 Fox To Be My Dd In The Near Future

    Lot of truth in this post. One day when my LX still had the stock 302 in it (150Kish miles on it mind you) I couldn't get around some stupid woman in a minivan. Talk about a kick on the ol's ego's berries. If you stick with it becomes worth it. Like the night at the strip last October when I was...

    Weighed: Pony Wheels Vs. Draglites

    Good information to have. I never realized there was that much of a difference in weight.

    Anyone Else Have 315's? Need Help.

    Sounds like you need to locate the axle with a PHR or watts link then.

    Help With Msd Warranty Decision

    Try to get a refund. I tried a cheap parts store replacement that almost cost me my new motor last year. I went with a Performance Distributors and it cleared up a rich idle condition I was having with my stock 150K mile distributor. I went with them since you can't get new FOMOCO distributors...

    Mike's plan is what I'd do.

    I Am Now A Fox Body Owner, Also Have Some Questions

    I'd put money on the O2 codes are there because you have a vacuum leak. Look around your engine bay and see if any of the hoses have cracks in them (you might have to give them a squeeze to see). If so replace the offending hoses to see if that clears up your idle issues. Car looks clean!

    Buying A Mustang

    Very nice find OP. It's like a cleaner version of my car.

    New Guy Looking For A 5.0 Fox To Be My Dd In The Near Future

    As much as I'd like to recommend a Fox, I can't for your situation. These old cars need a lot of love, patience, and a backup ride. If you can't afford two cars, get a decent car that you can drive in the snow and a Fox later for cash. Your going to be hating on the car when it is broke, you...
