    I have owned 6 foxes now, 4 of which received serious build ups. Price tag on my latest fox project is going to come in around 35k. For the money I have into these cars, I could have bought a Vette, a Viper, classic Mustang, Classic Camaro or whatever, but I still build and drive foxes. I...

    Got IRS??

    IRS swaps are pretty easy. The only thing is...and I'm not knocking putting the bolts through the trunk pan as that is how most people do it, but that method is a bit questionable as far as strength is concerned. When people ask me about it, I suggest opening doors in the trunk pan over top of...

    5.0 engine question

    Being as the Super Coupes were the top of the line birds for power, and they were only putting out 190hp, I think the engine is a non-HO.

    Question for everyone that mods their car!

    Seeking Advice on Hi-Miles LX

    ground cable melting?

    Whelp, a wire melting is a good sign of over-voltage or the wire just isn't thick enough to handle the power going through it. Is it a stock ground or is it an add-on because of a stereo or something?

    Steel cowl hood...???

    I have used 2 of the Goodmark hoods on customer cars. They are awesome. None of the BS you get with a lot of fibreglass hoods.
