    Post pics of how your foxbody currently sits

    Finally finished the oil change, put fresh fuel in and dropped the battery back in. Just need to top off with water or I may switch to antifreeze and keep it on the street for a while.

    Fox Why won’t my engine run cool

    As Karthief mentioned that air dam is functional. On my 331 years ago I had temp climb issue on the freeway. It was related to the lack of air dam.
