ok so i just bought 2 foxbodys the first one is a factory GT that has a EFI 302 bored 30 over and some other work done but the interior is beat the wiring has been butchered by previous owner and hatch,fenders,lights, and all wiring needs changed i also bought a stock 92 lx its a 4cyl auto completely stock has all the parts i need to fix the gt so my questin is what parts are not usable off the 4cyl aside from the obvious drivetrain braking and suspenion? could i use all the wiring harnesses off the 4cyl for the lights and ignition? i plan on taking the efi out and going with a carb thanks any input could be used

everything but the engine harness, the tachometer. the body harness is the same. The front brakes are smaller but those can be swapped out with the spindles or the k frame. the trans will work for a little bit and the rear will for a bit but if you have the 302 stuff then you dont need em.

Hell i would pull the engine and drive line from the GT and throw it in the LX. Lighter and faster. Plus IMHO look a 10000% better!
