I was curious....
I see where a lot of people put 8.8's from fox body's in their classic stang and swap to the old style suspension. Has anyone attempted to put a fox 8.8 in a 67/68 stang and modify the suspension to accept the fox coil springs and lower control arms and add a maxiumum motorsport torque arm?
As far as the coil springs go, that should be easy to fabricate a mount. I can't imagine the lower control arms would be much harder, just need to modify the area where the old leaf spring attached in the front. The torque arm attachment point would be the only other modification and that is just a support run from side to side on the subrame. I think the biggest question mark would be the pinion angle, don't know how it would compare in a 67 to a fox body setup.
