Is too! I think all the stock 5.0's left are around here, I'll see people driving Fox 5.0's and 75% of them are bone stock. Which is weird because you don't see many of them around here either...

thas odd. All of them here are "modded race cars" that run mid 9's in the 1/8th and I've dusted with the 88 coupe.

All the modded race cars here are imports However there is a guy locally that has a 5.0 Fox vert...it's mostly stock, aside from altezzas, projector headlights, and it's painted with the stars and stripes (and man does it look stupid)
