    how does the fox 5.0 compare to the 99+ 4.6 ?

    I really dont buy that Ford will have to spend THAT much more to drop a little biger engine in the Mustang to compete with its new American made competition. If Chevy and Dodge can both do it, so can Ford. Like you said, the bulk of sales come from 6 bangers anyway. And if Ford would have...

    how does the fox 5.0 compare to the 99+ 4.6 ?

    I didnt mean to imply that the 4.6 is not a worthy Mustang engine...but I do think it will be outclassed by the Dodge 5.7 and 6.1 Hemi and the Chevy large displacement small block (I dont know what is going into the new camaros other than I know it has a lot of cubes). If they want to keep the...

    how does the fox 5.0 compare to the 99+ 4.6 ?

    My whole point in my post was how the cars feel, which is a very personal thing. 10 people will have 10 different opinions. I know the 4.6 on paper and on the track similarly equipped will outperform the 5.0 and that they have somewhat similar powerbands...it jst doesn't feel like it when I am...

    Lets see pics of your grant wheel install on 91+ Fox

    Yeah and my wheel does not have a large center :( I am gonna have to find something to do with it, I may look into swapping the trim over from an 87-89 as mentioned a couple posts up, but have no idea how difficult it would be or where to get the pieces I need...

    Most people I have seen complain about teh King Cobra pedal effort either have an aftermarket adj cable or completely stock quadrant. Get a Fiora or UPR quick click firewall adjuster, UPR or MM quadrant, and an OEM cable from either MM or even better get the clutch linkage upgrade kit from Jegs...

    New mufflers

    truf In every comparison I have seen with the Mac Flowpaths and the Pro-chambers they have been at or very near the top in power. I really dislike all other Mac products but they really got it right with their exhaust components.

    how does the fox 5.0 compare to the 99+ 4.6 ?

    You make some good points, 4.6s put out a lot of power and are undeniably stronger and better equipped from the factory to make power. I guess the problem for me is where it makes the power :shrug: It just doesn't feel like a muscle car. When I look at the powerplants in the upcoming Z28 and...

    how does the fox 5.0 compare to the 99+ 4.6 ?

    If you like torque and not having to wind your engine up to the redline to feel any power stick with a 5.0...unless of course you plan on bolting on a Kenne Bell to your 4.6 to get the best of both worlds :) I have driven several 4.6's including my Uncle's old car, a 2003 GT with decent bolt...

    Lets see pics of your grant wheel install on 91+ Fox

    No I have a 93 Cobra, but I believe 91+ all have teh same steering wheels with airbags. And yeah there is the plastic *neck* that is up against the dash that snaps together in two halves and also right in front of that there are a few visible screws, etc. I will get a pic soon I hope.

    New mufflers

    Flowpaths with cat-less Pro-chambers, best sounding exhaust for sure and also one of the best power makers.

    Lets see pics of your grant wheel install on 91+ Fox

    I would just like to see how your install looks compared to mine. I have some spots visible that I am not too fond of that makes the install not look quite as good as it could, I can post pics later tonight to show you.

    Dyno VIDS, wow stock tachs are off!

    I wouldnt be surprised if the pro-chambers and Mac muflers account for at least half the difference, Mac exhaust stuff makes great power....especially th pro-chambers.

    Thinking about Coilovers

    Front coilovers are just fine for street use, plenty of folks on here use em with great results. Rear coilovers may be a different story though. When I talked to Maximum Motorsport they recommended I run front coilovers but not rear; the reasoning was that on steep driveways or big potholes...
