Nice. I loves me some Fox bodies. You might want to consider welding up some subframe connectors. Oh, and your '84 Mustang would have made 175hp from the...
Yeah, could dig up a old copy of the Mathis written Mustang Performance book and it details how to make a few suspension parts that will greatly improve the...
We never took the cam out of the car, it is what was in it when we dragged the POS home. It's bark is much worse than it bite. On Wed, Oct 1, 2008 at 9:25 AM,...
To be honest, when we first got the car started a couple of weeks ago, we were disappointed that it appeared to have a non-stock cam in it. As far as I am...
We have not done anything to the suspension other than make sure the shocks/struts are not blown and optimize the caster/camber/toe. Brakes are stock...
What parts did you swap over to go to 5-lug? Would have thought that would mean new axles, spindles, rotors and drums at the very least. ... -- Aaron Rouse ...
They could get away with using the stock spindles if they used Ranger rotors (10") or Lincoln Mark VII rotors (11"). Looking at the video, they appear to be...
I was asking more out of curiosity than poking holes. I thought you had to use the 87 up spindles to go with the front Lincoln Mark VII brakes but perhaps...
The 7.5 and 8.8 axles and brake hardware are all interchangable and they're pretty cheap at the junkyard from a ranger/aerostar. I just threw a set of 5-lug...
You can use 10" 5-lug front rotors from a Ranger on the pre-'87 cars. Since brakes are a freebie and the '87+ spindles aren't any sort of upgrade geometry-wise...
I never went the low buck route for brake options on those cars which is why I am only vaguely familiar with the various routes. I ended up with a complete...
We are using the Mark VII rotors. We did change the rear axle shafts and the cost of the used axles is included in our budget. We redrilled the stock rear...
I've seen the car in person and, I mean this in a good way, it is definetly a pile of doo-doo. It's very easy to believe that it was built within the $500...
*thumbs up* The only reason any of this got brought up is because you said you were using stock Fox brakes, which obviously isn't true. You've changed the axle...
Actually we are using stock Fox brakes. The car already had 87-93 spindles and calipers (not 73mm) on it so all we did was add Mark VII/SVO rotors (both Fox...
... Chuck Norris is showing up, and he's not bringing a car, he's bringing a FIST. Strangely, to the untrained eye, the fist looks a hell of a lot like a ...
We had a driver flake and could use another for Texas. We're out of Dallas and will be racing a near stock 2.3 5 speed Mustang, so we're not trying to win...
I've always admired those cars. Just well designed from day one. Look forward to seeing it. / / / The iPhone has spoketh / / / On Oct 1, 2008, at 7:57 PM,...
Team Large Intestine Debris will be bringing out a clapped-out, shoddy 4-cyl. mustang. We're doing some wind tunnel testing this weekend and then the car is...
We got photos! We got accounts from teams! It's all here <http://jalopnik.com/5052634/the-24-hours-of-lemons-detroit+ish-uber-gal\ lery> ! As for you Texas...

Any Texas team captains still need a driver? I've got a guy (see below) who's working on a story for a German paper and looking to join a team. If you need to...
