    Sold The Fox....

    First time in 11 years I have been "stangless". First time in 12 years I only have one car. Well, there was times only one car ran and usually the non running one was the Mustang. Fells odd but it's time to move on with my life, then maybe some day in the future I'll have the urge to get into...

    Big oops. Hood flew up.

    Digit to put the hood pins in. Long story. Hood came up and smashed the cowl. I am thinking of options to fix this mishap. It's not a daily driver. I never use the wipers anyways. I deleted the HVAC. I am thinking of installing a solid panel. I really don't see extensive body work being done...

    Thinking of selling out....

    I got this car a couple years ago, thinking it would re-boost my drive and make up for messing up with my 90GT. Well it's been a couple years and I am yet to put that many of my parts on it. I still have a lot of parts that are still sitting on the shelf waiting for an install. Including the...

    Gas Mileage MPG : SD vs MAF

    Which gets better fuel mileage, Speed Density or Mass Air Flow on mild or stock engine cars? I have everything to do the swap, but I don't need to, so I haven't. My old car got decent gas milege, and although it was a 5-speed, it was much better than this car. I am going to convert it to the...

    Coolest track you've been to?

    What's your favorite/best/coolest dragstrip you've ever went to? :track: I've only been to a few. Southeastern in Dallas, GA(closed), The Atlanta Dragway in Commerce, GA, Paradise in Calhoun, GA, and Silverdollar in Reynolds, GA. I visited Yellow River near Athens which closed before I...

    Translation: What kind of oil are you using? Synthetic? Conventional? Blend? Weight? Brand? Any certain line within a brand and weight? Any reason why? Any additives? Filter? Any brand/weight/line have you had any bad experiences? I've been a Mobil 1 fan for a long time. My 5.0 has seen...

    New accessory / belt setup No A/C, No P/S (PICS!!!)

    I deleted my A/C and P/S a while ago. For a long time I have been running it by reversing the tensioner. This worked enough to get around but the belt slipped a lot, there was just not enough tension. I already have a 3G alternator and a ASP underdrive pulley set. So I had it run like this...

    GOAL: 12.999 on stock motor 5.0 and AOD. Possible?

    My 88GT is currently running a 8.8 @ 83mph in the 1/8th which calculates to a 13.8 at 103mph in the 1/4 at a bad track at 900ft elevation. People there say they run .2 faster at better tracks. I ran it on radial 225/60R15 tires which gave me horrible 2.0-2.1 60ft time. I had to launch from...

    Who makes a standard rotation water pump?

    I have deleted my A/C and P/S. Right now I have the tensenior reversed but it just doesn't give enough tension. I have horrible belt squeel. I need one a waterpump that can spin the way the crank spins which is opposite of the way is spins now. I heard Stewart pumps makes one, but not quite...

    Progress pics and going to the track tonight.

    Well the progress has been way too slow to do a progress thread. FINALLY heading to the track tonight I hope. I bought my car a about a year and a half ago and well, haven't done near as much as I though I would. Other priorities so sometimes I just poke around at it but don't do much. I...

    Removal of hard heater lines by the intake:

    Took out my HVAC and I want to remove the hard lines that run between the upper and lower intake. There is the ECT sensor there so I will probably need to run an adapter to put it where the line come out of the intake. The other end goes to the waterpump and I am guessing I could just block...

    Odd Foxes?

    Odd foxes like the '84 that had the CFI (central fuel injection) only in the automatic V8's. Or the 4.2 automatic that came in '82. How about the inline 6? Just kind of currious what kind of rare combos some foxes came with. Any pics? I am really curious about the CFI V8's from 84...

    How often do you drive your Fox? (besides DD people)

    If you Daily Drive it, well, that's awesome, but for the rest of us that use another vehicle for a daily driver: How often or much do you drive your Foxbody? Any reason behind it? I haven't driven mine in almost two weeks. So hot lately along with high gas prices really puts a damper on it...

    Overrated fox upgrades and trims

    I would have to say that Coupe/Notchback, 5 lug conversions, and the all black interior are overrated. I like Coupes. I like the all black interior. I like the 5 lug thing, but it isn't the cat's meow. I've known guys that didn't care much one way or the other, then they started hanging out...

    Killer steals... I mean deals on Foxes lately...

    If you want to buy a foxbody, and actually have the money, now is definatly the time. These cars have been following the housing market with the prices. I mean, people are getting great deals on cars a few years ago would have cost them double. Is it just the economy, or is there a lost...

    3G alt upgrade on an '85?

    A friend is ordering a 3G for his '85 Carbed 5.0. The plug and external regulator setup kind of has me confused on how to upgrade it. I've done it a few times on 87+'s but this one is different. Can someone explain it to me a little? I know the sticky, but it doesn't seem to relate to what...

    What kind of MPG on your Fox?

    Although not that important, dumping all your mod money into the tank sucks. So what kind of miles per gallon, or gallons per mile are you getting with your fox? Mine, I just don't know, it's the auto trans I think that is eating a lot of fuel as I'm only averaging about 18mpg right now...

    Most stupidest dumb modification you've ever seen on a Fox?

    In the attempt to be unique, some step way out of conventional wisdom with pointless and useless modifications where leaving it stock would actually be a great improvement to the system. What's sad is some of these took some real time, effort, and money that could have been spent elsewhere...

    Finally getting rid of the ole' 90's shell, focus on the 88

    Well, about ten years ago I got my first Mustang and first Fox, it was a dream come true, and the modding obsession went wild. I learned so much over the time and on here and through trial and error how to build one. Then when my motor went south, I went a bit too deep, stripped the car down...
