I dunno. I'm on an anti-power steering kick right now. I can't seem to find a pump that doesn't whine or leak, so I removed it and am currently driving with a powerless power rack. When funds allow, I'll go buy a manual rack.Yyyyep. I thank the Mustang Gods everyday that i still have power steering and air-conditioning.
It would have been much, much worse had I not had to move every couple of years and/or had a garage suitable for that kind of work. The base hobby shop is completely awesome to have but it's not really suitable for extended-stay work.
I STILL consider mounting a Steeda wing. lol

....The A/C isn't going anywhere however.

Now I'm with ya on not liking LS swaps. I don't mind that at all. Though I find the reasoning a little silly, I've lost all interest in arguing it, especially on a Mustang forum. To each his own there. Where you lost me is how it equates to half-assing?Well, it's not my favorite, but I understand why people do it. Easy hp. I think someone who does do that to a mustang doesn't have any room to trash talk someone else for half assing something though. If you want to make a FORD Mustang go fast, doing it with a FORD motor- especially pushrod- Makes you the man.
Since there's like 4-5 things I don't care for on that list,I think you're right on the moneyI think if the forum voted on how to mod a fox it would be:
60/40 coupe:hatch
large inch, NA, aftermarket block 8.2 (Although I'd lobby for a big assed stock block 9.5)
11r 205s
custom cam
aftermarket ECM
Tremec of some sort
built 8.8
Stock-ish interior
A/C, P/S, P/B
Staggered 17-in spoke-type wheels
Cobra brakes
Minimal body mods, some shade of black/blue
How far off am I?

Well then,.....what do you use as a gauge then?
So you're saying then that you don't like or dislike other peoples cars then?
The point wasn't about how you should feel about it, ...it's about how others perceive it.
Compound boost of some kind....I think if the forum voted on how to mod a fox it would be:

F**K no. We're getting Porno Red and we're gonna like it.Black interiors for all
Ive learned not to get sucked into these debates, as misinformed as they may be. To each his own.It's a matter of perspective, and doesn't surprise me in the least that people don't get it. Instead of spending the time and money building a Ford engine (what belongs in the car) that will make enough hp to compete with the opposition... just drop an LS in it. It's the easy way. The half assed way. Then, say something like "Brand loyalty is stupid." That makes it better..
If you don't agree, ( I know you don't) that's fine, there's a lot around here I disagree with.
