    Toying with an idea, need someone to tell me I'm cra-cra.

    I agree, according to Car & Driver of February 1971 they ran a 14.1@100mph in a Boss 351 (0-60 of 5.8 secs).

    ^ Aero conversion is a great idea! I don't mind the suggestion of using the new 300hp+ V6 used in the new mustang, would be very unique however I can't see much in the way of future performance modifications for that mill.

    Toying with an idea, need someone to tell me I'm cra-cra.

    For a street driven fox I wouldn't touch this swap, especially not for 400-500hp goals. I'd go with the hotly contested LSx swap long before ever considering a BBF. :eek:

    Short Shifter

    I'll toss in another thumbs up for the MGW, nice as hell unit.

    Anyone familiar with these rims? (Steeda Pentar)

    I like those, they kind of remind me of the wheels on 94-96 Impala SS's. I don't like how they look on the Fairmont however, either.

    Muffler Question

    I had their regular mufflers for a bit on my car, the idle sounded good but they were incredibly raspy otherwise. I have the pypes x pipe, fits well IMO, I have not had any issues with it hanging down too low either personally.

    2 Tone inside

    I like it a lot, I have been considering doing something similar to my reef hatch and I think you just sold me on it!

    Engine Rebuild Quote

    Not a chance in hell I'd spend that much to end up with a 260hp @ the flywheel 302.

    In the market for exhaust...

    I would not bother with walker factory replacements personally, they will sound well...stock. The Dynomax VT recommendation I do like however for a fairly tame but good sounding setup.

    ^ It'd help if he knew how tah drive it!

    In the market for exhaust...

    The key to a nice sounding exhaust IMHO is to have tailpipes regardless of what muffler/crossover configuration you choose. I was into dumps when I was a teenager, then I got over it.

    Has anyone installed the Summit house brand LT headers?

    I have a set sitting in the box that I started stripping a while back, I attempted installing them when I was swapping in a rebuilt T5 and within 15 minutes I just put them back in the box and bolted the MAC shorties back up.

    Mach 1 Rims on/5 lug swap - Pic

    No kidding, I picked up a pair of Mach's with tires for $220 a few years ago and could not find another 2 to make a complete set for a reasonable price! They are just collecting dust now.

    Mach 1 Rims on/5 lug swap - Pic

    That looks great, I'll add that my cars brakes after the front PBR upgrade (stock drums rear) with stock booster/master feel much better than stock components. Somewhat related question, what spring setup are you running? I like the stance.

    03 Cobra vs 2011 GT

    I'd go with the '11 GT hands down as well.

    Name that Brake Part (Set)

    Clean them up and use them, I did this swap on my 93 over the summer and I think they came out pretty nice.

    Reef Blue

    The all reef GT looks nice, you guys are making me jealous with your nice looking paint reef cars! Hopefully have mine repainted this spring.
