    If Having A 4bbl Carb Makes You A Hillbilly,........

    Mike. I know you said you were going to have the stacks sticking out of the hood but, one option I looked into when i thought about putting a big block in mine, before coming up with the turbo idea, was to use K member spacers to get the big block to fit under a stock hood a little more easily...

    Black Brake Moan

    not sure where you got your pads from but, I used to work at autozone part time for a while & they have CMAX ceramic pads. one of the selling point we were supposed to give customers is they were autozones quietest pads because they are ceramic & more importantly, they have a "special" compound...

    Twin 255 LPH Walbro in tank pumps?

    Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I didn't think you could externally mount in tank pumps. If I get the pump from my buddy, I will try to post up the results of riggin it up.

    Twin 255 LPH Walbro in tank pumps?

    This might seem like a stupid question but, was the 2 pumps you used just externally mounted in tank pumps?

    Twin 255 LPH Walbro in tank pumps?

    I have read about that but, I was wondering if anyone had done that with a fox tank and fuel pump hanger. Thanks for the reply though.

    Twin 255 LPH Walbro in tank pumps?

    I have a buddy that is going to be upgrading his fuel system soon and he asked me if I would want his old 255 LPH walbro. Have any of you guys ever put 2 in tank pumps in a fox body? When I did a search, I found some guys with newer mustangs have done this but couldn’t find any info in the Fox...

    I dont know how functional it would be at directing air forward but, you could cover your ducts in the pakage tray with 6x9 speaker covers if you wanted to keep them hidden

    Need junk 5.0 intake manifold

    while my vote would be for a turbo setup, I think that an old school blower would look awesome and keep with the old school theme. If for some reason you need another intake, I still have the summit knock off of the victor jr that I modified for injectors. Water/meth would also be my vote over...

    I think you are being pretty modest about your project. There are a lot of super clean foxes out there and turbfox is an exellent example but, the way you combined the 68 front & rear with an 86 is awesome. The engine bay also looks great. Its truly a one of a kind car. You wanted to build...

    boost limits on stock block

    Im no expert on this but, like a lot of people have said, tuning will be very important. 10:1 compression might limit the boost psi but, you can also look into methanol or water/meth injection as a way to cool the intake air charge and raise octane to help with avoiding detonation. check out...

    Sons and Daughters...

    I also think jrichker made some good points Mike. I was in the USMC and, while I only did 4 years, I would have to say that it was a good experience for me and proud of the time served. Best of wishes to you & your son & the rest of your family.

    Fox to Cobra 5 lug conversion (not as easy as it seems)

    Wow Mike. Sounds like Im not the only one that has to deal with Murphys law. Also, its good to see that rear end noise saw dust thread was just a joke. Im no expert on any of this stuff but, as I was reading the first part of that thread, I was thinking to myself. With all the skill & years of...

    Engine Compartment....Black or Red?

    Mine will probably still be up on jack stands for both of those dates lol. Not that mine will ever be in a show but, I will see what I can do about making it to a show.

    Engine Compartment....Black or Red?

    yeah, it would probably be best to only drive my car while wearing a flack jacket lol. I still think I have more to fear from my parts house clutch exploding on a launch than the turbo coming apart. I still want to make a road trip to see your car someday too.
