I'm new to this website. I have a daily driven 5 speed 1988 5.0 hatchback with an f303 cam. I plan on building a new motor In the future but now I'm trying to get ideas for interior and exterior modifications. I want to give the mean drag car look as possible but keep it safe and dependable. please post pictures and give me tips. Thank you!

The 'racecar' look and comfortable daily driver are kinda at different ends of the spectrum.

Welcome to Stangnet.

You are limited to an extent. Yet you can build a big badass looking fox with lots of power and still be a daily driver.

Consider a 351 swap. Or, if you have money, there's always the coyote swap.

It can be done, though you do have to sacrifice something to have a drag car look.
