    Well, Getting Out Of The Fox Game

    It was a good ride. My 86 is a great car, has some good power and all but I'm ready for something a little more mature (AC, quieter interior, nice factory stereo)... I'm dreaming about an 03 Cobra or Mach1 right now but if the right "new edge" GT comes my way, I may bite the Bullet :D

    Improperly Installed Intake = Engine Revving By Itself? Wtf

    Stock Carb on Weiand intake with EGR spacer installed. Bolt missing on cylinder #5 water area, not properly torqued either... I didn't install the intake but suggested to get the bolt out and re-install with a torque wrench and following the proper tightening pattern...

    Improperly Installed Intake = Engine Revving By Itself? Wtf

    Yup that's why I posted, it's so weird. There's no way the ignition system can do that to an engine. I'm not entirely sure if it goes up to 4k, just sounds like it (tach is dead). Starts, goes up in revvs and dies. Throttle cable is installed ok.

    Improperly Installed Intake = Engine Revving By Itself? Wtf

    Hi guys, a friend of mine with a carb'd 5.0L GT asked me for some help. He changed the intake, distributor and installed an MSD box. Car would start, revv up to 4k or whatever by itself then die (no idle)... I checked the dizzy install, found TDC and all - it was all installed properly. But...

    Head Choices

    If I was going HCI, I'd be going with Trickflow as previously mentioned. As for head choices? I like mine from a 110lb brunette with size C's :D

    Trade 5.0 For Escalade?

    I wouldn't do it. A big pig of an SUV... Why not put the stang on some sort of custom car insurance or whatever, and get yourself a used Focus to DD? I bought an 03 Focus ZX5 for dirt cheap, it's been really reliable, AC is cold, power everything (heated seats too), cheap on gas, cheap for...

    Fox Being Phased Out Of Media....

    When I take my 86 out, I get tons of thumbs up, people asking about it and such. The fox Mustang is far from being phased out of people's minds. At local car club shows, all you see are rows of S197s, and New Edge stangs. It's like visiting a Ford dealership. The fox bodies that do show up stand...

    You guys are gonna think I'm crazy......

    Sorry to hear about your luck! I HATE selling cars with a passion. Time wasters, tire kickers, test pilots, dumb-asses, daydreamers - all of them. I think my 86 will stay with me until it's a heap of rust or twisted metal wrapped around a tree. Was appraised at 12k, I have about that into it...

    Fox Being Phased Out Of Media....

    When guys like me, now 34, end up our 50's the Fox will see a serious comeback (unless the world goes to sh!t, no more oil, WW3, etc...). Phased out of mags isn't that big of a deal. A fox is and will always be one of the best Mustangs Ford built (I said "one of" not THE, ok?). I don't need to...

    Prelude seats in a fox body?

    Should swap in a bench seat from a 76 F150, that would be unique. :D
