    I think Chip Foose is goona sue somebody

    Actually it's a clean car. Not my taste in paint jobs because it doesn't suite the fox body style, and the headlights and tail lights need to go, but not a bad car. I wouldn't pay any 4800 for it though. When you do things like paint jobs and such, you don't add to the value of the car exactly.

    Carbon fiber hood

    I've always wanted a one piece front end, to me that would be sweet, if it was all in carbon fiber that would be even better.... but the price would be nuts.

    Thinking of selling out....

    Reading a lot of your responses, I guess I'm not alone. Two things this hobby takes up and that's time and money, and those are the two things I am short on right now. The fox makes me want to do things to it, there is always a goal, which requires time and money. It's kind of like...

    Thinking of selling out....

    I got this car a couple years ago, thinking it would re-boost my drive and make up for messing up with my 90GT. Well it's been a couple years and I am yet to put that many of my parts on it. I still have a lot of parts that are still sitting on the shelf waiting for an install. Including the...

    ....

    Hmm... you would have to really want it and even if you did "restore" it, it wouldn't be a number's matching car so I don't know. A whole lot is missing. How does it happen? An idiot gets a car. I once watched a 93 Cobra go from a prestine low mile car to a junker. Waffle House cook got...

    switching to CARB...

    If you disconnect the MAF does it run any better? Actually sounds like ignition to me. These cars are simple for the most part.

    oil weight question

    Very true of conventional oil but synthetic is another story.

    severe miss; pulled codes

    A miss will make it read lean, because the unburnt fuel air mix will result in more air making the system think it's lean. A 93 uses mainly the MAF to decide how to meter fuel. A bad MAF may not nessesarily shoot a code, but it will tell the computer the the wrong reading of air volume. Make...

    oil weight question

    Why 20w50? That is awefuly thick oil for an engine designed for 10w30. Thick oil may protect better, but unless the clearances are large enough it won't flow very well, and will actually protect less. Unless the engine has been rebuilt for this, I wouldn't run it. It will also cause more...

    Escort, Call girl, or Crack Whore

    There are a lot of people (ricers mainly) that cover their cars with stickers and they aren't getting a single dime from the companies that they are advertising for. In fact, they paid for the stickers. I should call Dart, AFR, and Hellion and see if they want to put me together a 408 turbo...

    Cub Cadet Series 2000 62" Deck

    Get the deck bored out. Once you have a 62.030 deck you won't see how you got it done with a 62" deck.

    5.0 swap in a terminator?

    Hate to do it, but I'm feeling generous today. Tell you what, I'll trade you straight, computer, wiring harness and engine. I'll even let you have my 5-speed for your T-56. The 5 speed is easier, that one less gear makes it so much easier to drive. ;)

    lets talk engines. your list of the best engines ever made and the future of them.

    Small Block Chevy V8 and the VW flat 4. Every "small block" Ford is basically Ford's answer to the 1955 265cid chevrolet pushrod V8. Yes, Ford was basically the one that put the term "V8" on the map but that was a flat head V8. That little air cooled flat four cylinder that came in every...

    The idiots on the road, my short story

    You should come on down south if you want to see some real stupid driving. If you think you can handle it, drive in TN. Atlanta is nuts too. CT is close by so you can train there. People don't know how to drive, literally. Until recently there was little to no driver's education and...

    R.I.P fox :(

    I hate that crap, people sitting on the shoulder and then suddenly turn out. I was told in a class once that often people pull over because they are dealing with something and they don't think when they turn out. I think the other driver in this case should have been tried criminally. I...

    The GT40p, TFS cam times thread

    Keep in mind there are so many variables here. Heads are just one part in many parts of a car that will get it down the track. I'm running 8.6's at 87mph with a bone stock 5.0 engine and stock AOD in a hatch, (so about 13.5 at 107 in the 1/4) but it's not in the condition it left the factory...

    TUNER OR TUNE?

    Ok, we have a newbie to the 5.0EFI..... first of all, try caps off. A chip? Why? Ummm, first of all, you don't need any custom stuff done. This is not an OBDII car, this is EEC-IV, and it adapts and is not set with the strict limits of the OBD computers. Yes, the newer cars benifit greatly...
