Thinking about coming back...

some of you may remember me, some definitely do, from a ways back. I have been out of the mustang thing for a while and am thinking about picking up another one, obviously a fox. Just dropping in to scope the classifieds, say hello, and see if any of the old 5.0 crew is still around. Ok peace out tty all soon.

-Riceslayer302/5.Slow/all the other banned names haha

haha! the old crew is still here, nikowac, stanggt1995, mansonozz, fiveohblow, cobra912, its good to "see" you all again. is ryan218 still around? i havent seen any posts from him yet

its a pretty long story, i finished the 331 and the engine bay smooth, dyno'd it, it made 350/373 N/A, i drove it around until about july and then found a really nice 06 powerstroke for relatively cheap, so i bought that and have been turning that into some thing nice for a year, and kinda lost interest in the stang, i needed a new daily to get to work every day, so i put it up for sale, had a bunch of tire kickers for a few months. then finally one day i took it out for a quick spin, and my passenger side skinny blew out at about 70mph. the tread peeled right off the tire and flew up and destroyed the entire front passenger side of the car. the fender, door, nose, gt ground effects, it was all messed up pretty bad. so obviously i was a little upset and didnt wanna see my car like that anymore, so i sold it that night for way less than i wanted to and have been living in stang denial for a year. haha i couldnt even look at one without getting pissed. you know how it is when you have a bad break up and then see the girl out and about with other guys after? thats pretty much how i felt every time i saw a fox haha. the worst thing was about 3 months after i sold it i saw it on the highway on a trailer heading to god knows where all stripped down to a shell. haha. poor old girl. she'll be remembered.

If I remember right, it was always the pushrod VS modular fights that got you into trouble, haha. You know, now they have that damn Coyote thing...

Good to see you back!

it always was haha, that and anything else that pushed poor gearbanger's buttons, haha i loved to do that. is he still around? i figured ide try to log in today and already be rebanned lol. and as i havent paid attention to anything but diesels in the past year i have no idea about the "new 5.0" except what ive heard, that its a stroked dohc 4.6. right? doesnt really matter to me anymore, you all know how much of a fox 5.0 fan i am and nothings changed.

Good luck with finding a Fox Mustang.

thanks, i am gonna spend some time looking this time around, not gonna settle for the first deal that comes my way and turn it into what i want. gotta find the perfect platform this time, thinking a 89-93 coupe but we'll see.

Ha, me and the slayer are cool. I'm pretty sure I was on his side in a couple of those arguments.

no way man we've always been cool, i never had any real probs with anybody i just always let my big mouth get me in trouble haha, it never helped when me, bentley429, and blackened88lx would go out to the bars and then come home (after not scoring with womens) and go on stangnet hahaha

hahaha oh man

so i am thinking of finding myself a nice clean lx, notch preferably but a hatch would be just fine, probably 89-93 but im also a huge fan of 4 eyes. 5 speed, black or grey interior definitely a must. im not planning on anything too crazy at first, if i can find a solid car that runs for the right price i am thinking i might try to get it to go 13.0, maybe maybe touch high 12's? with just suspension work and gears. that way while i build my foundation i can figure out which direction i want to go with an engine setup. plan on doing an even more detailed engine bay smooth and wire tuck maybe. we shall see. im so psyched to get a new project, i really miss being able to go out and work on my car for a few hours. i love working on my powerjoke but its just not the same as a fox cuz when you get mad at a fox you can just hit it with wrenches and not care, the truck i gotta try and keep nice haha.
