unloaded, it sat a little to high for my taste.



after a good trim job on the BBK springs to tweak the stance and a good spit shine.

Good evening Td,

Based on how you've made your car look, I'm sure that if I were to ride in it once, I would want one for myself as well! It looks super fun and I'll bet it really moves. I'm looking forward to additional updates!

thanks man, and yes it looked just as it is in the pics under the hood when i brought it home, i think it was tastefully done under there. you'll snag you a fox to work on sooner or later im sure


thank Robroy, yes you'd want one.... and yes i'll post any improvement/mods i do

id love to do a 5 lug swap and run the wheel setup that you see here on this blue car.

[brandon.k]

The Bullets look good but i like the Welds better. Im thinking about putting my Bullets on girlfriends car and getting Welds for mine.

I didnt know the 5.0's were 4 lug !? I thought that was a 4banger thing.

Its looking good Tim.

[robroy]

Good afternoon Td!!!

While the five lug update would probably be a fitting one, considering your powerful engine, in my opinion your current wheels look fantastic!!! Of course this is strictly a matter of personal preference, but I think you're car's looking GOOD as it is now!

I agree about the wheels. I normally love the torque type wheels, but I prefer the weld wheels on this car too. If the spoker was smaller with the same size tires that are on the welds, I might like em. The tires on the welds look tough and beefy.

[BiggDogg]

Any sound clips? I bet that beast purs a nice note

[td]

you guys are correct, its hard to beat the look of the classic welds on a fox. it be nice to have it converted to 5 lug just so the wheel selection would be opened up some.

BiggDogg,

sorry no sound clips but yes with the long tubes w/ 1-5/8'' primaries and full 2.5'' exhaust including 2.5'' tailpipes, up from the smaller stock ones, it really has a very aggressive note.

Very nice TD

So what HP do you think you have?

Im asking cause I would like to mod up the 5.0 in my truck. Really diging that intake.
