    '86 coupe questions

    GT vs Coupe

    i was already seriously considering chaing the k-member on the GT. do you know if there would have to be any modifications done to swap in a v8 after k-member since it was a v6 to begin with? also, do you know if the '87+ suspension pieces are the same as the 85-86 pieces?

    '86 coupe questions

    i started another similar post but i'll make this one a bit more specific...... i'm trying to get in touch with a guy that is selling an '86 coupe v6 with a jacked up trans. how different is that suspension than what would be in my '87 GT? did '86s have quad shocks? would i need to come up...

    GT vs Coupe

    so i came across an '87 coupe that is for sale for $600 that is somewhat close to me. the interior and windshield are gone (still waiting to see just how much of the interior is stripped). it does have a motor that will come with it (stock 302) and i'm not sure about the trans. i was planning...

    Is it just me, or is anyone else disappointed in the Fox 500 project?

    i looked their site for a bit and came across 2 different articles on it. neither of them showed the finished product. also came across another project that got my attention was a "project silver state" or something like that. i'm going to try and build my car for that same purpose and was...

    Need pics of Turbine wheels on car

    i actually did a search just recently trying to find a place that had 17" turbines. my thought was to make the car just that much more of a "sleeper". i have not been able to find any.

    Starting to get discouraged by the ls1/lt1 talk...

    i have done quite a bit of research on putting an LS motor in my fox. the crazy thing about these motors is that if you pick the correct version and the correct year they are making 400 ponies, bone stock. throw on a set of FACTORY heads, and FACTORY intake and aftermarket cam they are...

    i was hoping you'd chime in on this thread since you've got a few laps under your belt :D . so what's your opinion? should i go as wide as possible without rubbing? or find a happy medium? i've seen a number of guys running 275s, and a few running a 315s but i'm not sure what mods have been...

    best tire sizes x-cross/roadcourse?

    so i just read the thread from blck95gt and LOVE the way the set up looks. i've been thinking about how wide i want to go with my setup when i get to that point. what's the general concensus regarding tire size if you are going to set up the car to "turn"? it will be a daily driver mostly...

    Want some new Gears!

    if your intention is to improve 1/4 mile times, like mentioned earlier you need to study what your car is doing then use that info to picking the correct ratio. if you're just looking for a bump in seat of the pants feeling, drop in a set of 4.56s. i personally wouldn't spend the money to go...
