    85 vs 95 T-5 in a Fox

    This is the deal I have a basically stock 5.0 with minor bolt on's and I have a buddy that is gonna sell me a 85 GT for $250 and I really want to do the AOD to T-5 conversion. In your opinion is the 85's T-5 tranny worth swapping into my 89 until I can find a beefier 5spd tranny?

    85 vs 95 T-5 in a Fox

    So will the 85 input shaft and bearing from a 85 fit on the 95 tranny? Because a good buddy of mine has a 85 GT that he is letting me have for dirt cheap and a guy on these boards is selling a 95 T-5 in my area for cheap as well. I need advise before I go spending money :D

    How to make a 1982 scoop "useful"?

    Hopefully someone with a Mach 1 Shaker sytle hood scoop would be the best one to give some insight on some possible ideas for routing piping for a functional hood scoop :shrug:

    Need Avise from those with Electric Water Pumps

    Thanks for the input :nice: You failed to mention whether or not you've done the 3G alternator upgrade but I imagine you did since you said that you have four fans. Was the H20/Pump easy to install or was it a PITA?

    Need Avise from those with Electric Water Pumps

    My stock water pump gasket is leaking like a stuck pig and now its time to replace it and I was figuring that while I have everything off I might as well replace the water pump itself.
