Bought a 93 lx 4cyl auto. 90k original miles. Needs a new hatch and a few rust spots on the floor. My plan id a v8 swap with a 6 speed. But the best part is. Bought it for 400 bucks!

Great steal, i'm talking to a guy about buying his black interior pieces for 450 (his ask), I would've bought that in a heart beat for a parts car and interior swap.

why so cheap? and it runs? I'm a little jealous!

OH GOD....


side question, anyone ever try fitting a 351 windsor into a fox? I think it'd be sooooo cool! I doubt it'll fit.

You can only put EVEN numbered V-8's in. So, if it was a 352 windsor it would fit......I also heard you can put in a coyote, but I don't see how a dog could pull a heavy car like a Mustang?

If you want to go vtec, you're gonna have to change it over to fwd, and mount the engine in sideways! Remember, dragging a car down the track has been proven to be faster than pushing a car down the track!
