    Lx Left Me Stranded Again

    Weak. The worst part is I think you guys are right... I suspected fuel delivery, or a timing issue. Based on the simple fact that after the car sat for 15-20 minutes it fired back up. Actually, as it sat I kept trying to start it, and it slowly tried to fire more consistently. Why is it no one...

    Lx Left Me Stranded Again

    It better not be the TFI. The car has a new (~2K miles) distributor in it from Performance Distributors. https://performancedistributors.com/product/ford-hot-forged-dui-distributors/

    Lx Left Me Stranded Again

    Was on my way to work. Rolled up on a stop light and it died. I couldn't get it restarted. Last time it did this it ended up being the battery (intermittent cell). Not the case this time. Since it would spin over at normal speed, but wouldn't fire. Over the course of the next 15-20 minutes it...

    Post pics of how your foxbody currently sits

    I've had both springs, and I prefer H&R's.

    Just knocked out 22.4 on the highway this past weekend. I was pretty pleased since it isn't a stock 302. I bet it would be better if it was straight gasoline. Stupid corn lobby.

    Our 1st Cars

    My 70 Dodge Dart was my first car. Still sitting my garage. At least it is drivable.

    Mustang Related (not Fox)

    Yeah one of the previous owners apparently liked to run straight water in the cooling system so the rad is ruined. I have that aluminum one as a spare from when I was running a big block in my Mopar and it seems to just fit. I also have a fairly new Fox body rad I can try to run if necessary.

    Mustang Related (not Fox)

    The shock towers and frame look to be in good shape fortunately. Unfortunately I can't afford the space to pull the front of the car apart to fix it right now. I'll have to cobble it back together in the mean time to I can move it around under it's own power. Hopefully I'll get a garage built...

    Mustang Related (not Fox)

    I figured I'd post here since you guys know me better and there isn't much traffic in the 1st gen side of the forums. I was out poking around on my wife's 67 today. Decided to pull the "battery box" (code for a chunk of sheet metal shaped like an L). Found rot in the core support and inner...

    SN95 Trans Thoughts?

    That sounds similar to my build. My cam is a little more aggressive then a stage 2 and it is very streetable. I haven't dyno'd it, but the car is noticeably faster then my 2012 GT. Two things I would recommend doing that I didn't. First and foremost, get more aggressive heads, I know I'm giving...

    SN95 Trans Thoughts?

    Yeah it was a real problem back in 11' when I got mine. Hopefully they have gotten it sorted out. Unfortunately the only way to know if yours has that issue is to take it apart and get it mic'd, or drive it and see if it eventually locks you out.

    Msd (may Die Suddenly) Pro Billet Distributors. What Are Your Complaints?

    My old stock distributor was acting goofy on me early last year. I couldn't find a factory new distributor so I went with a local parts store distributor. That was a disaster as the shaft locked up to the bushing after about 2 minutes of idle time showering my new engine with aluminum shavings...

    SN95 Trans Thoughts?

    I haven't read the other responses but I can relay my experience. I'm running about 400ish hp through my 347 with a TKO 600. It wasn't cheap (I bought it brand new from D&D), and after the first 300 miles of break in I had to pull the trans again to get it opened up because of a built flaw with...

    SN95 Short Block Suggestions?

    Well if you want to do it slowly then call Woody @ Ford strokers. They can set you up on a payment plan while they build your motor.

    Fox 17x8's Rubbing In The Front.

    My 17x8's rub on the lower A arm at full lock, but it's the rim, not the tire. I'm running bullitts on 94 GT spindles with Cobra brakes. I just don't turn the wheel to full lock. Grab pics if you can, also be sure to check both sides. It might be only rubbing on one side, which would indicate...
