    Deciding On Engine Plans

    Yeah, that is what I am finding out now that I am really looking for a motor. What I don't want to do is buy a Explorer motor and find out there's issues. It would make life so much easier to go the Explore route, but it could be a bigger headache and cost more money.... So as of now I think...

    Deciding On Engine Plans

    Thanks for all the advice so far. I was driving the car maybe three days a week. I only drive it on nice days when I feel like taking a joy ride. It will be used only on the streets. I have no intentions of running it at the track, but on that subject, it would be nice to have a decently quick...

    Deciding On Engine Plans

    I searched threads but I did not see exactly what I am looking for. I do not plan to build a racing motor, or turbo, s/c or some high powered engine. There's a few ways I can go about this and I just don't know what is right for me. I was hoping to get some opinions and see if anyone else is/was...

    Low Oil Pressure

    I had replaced the unit not long after making this thread a few months back. It seemed to have taken care of the oil pressure being up and down, until lately. When cold the needle is right in the middle, but while driving it goes up and down, sometimes doesn't even move if I am getting on the...

    Little Video Of My New Exhaust Setup

    Thanks. I have dumps. I wanted to get rid of the tailpipes because I don't like how they look on an LX. Too much of the pipe shows for my liking. Now that I have dumps the only thing I can look at now is how the gas tank looks like it's sagging down like a baby with a crappy diaper or something...

    Little Video Of My New Exhaust Setup

    I'm sure you guys remember my drunken purchase thread lol well I went ahead and put it on because if I sent the Spintech catback back I would have only gotten a credit for something else from Spintech, so I just kept it. Spintech Super Prostreet with BBK offroad X pipe. Before I had a catted BBK...

    I'm actually looking at Mechanicsville as well. Since I am doing this by myself and I don't make a ton of money I am having to look for a house no more than $150,000 so I can get a mortgage payment I can afford and have some extra for buying parts for the Mustang and beer. Not many houses in...

    Mid Atlantic Mid Atlantic - PA, NJ, DE, VA, MD, WV

    It's frustration as hell. What gets me is when you see an ad for a house, it says it has a garage but there's no damn pictures. Must be a woman taking all the pictures. I don't need 15 pictures of the kitchen and 10 of the bathroom and a picture of the house showing the garage in the distance...

    Sve 5 Lug Conversion Kit??

    To the OP please forgive me for asking a question in your thread. I have tried looking but I could not find any answer to my question. I found a wrecked '97 Cobra that is near my house, like right down the street from me. He wants to part it out. Could that whole rear end work on a fox? I didn't...

    Sve 5 Lug Conversion Kit??

    What about doing the 5 lug conversion that keeps the rear drums, then saving up for rear disc swap from used parts? That's what I was thinking about doing because I forgot who it was but one of the companies includes wheels in their 5 lug conversion. Then later on doing rear disc brakes.

    What Ever Happened To...

    I just bought my Fox in August. What have I spent money on? Tune up, maintenance, water pump, and a few small repairs. The only performance parts I've bought was just a few days ago and that was because I was drunk internet shopping. I honestly don't plan to do much performance upgrades at all...

    Is It Worth It?

    I'd say go for building the engine...... But I am also someone who tried very hard to stay away from relationships, marriage, kids, the white picket fence, etc. Feels pretty good to be 28 with none of that crap!.... Actually, it doesn't. It's a sad miserable damn life, so take your vacation and...
