Because you have never seen a mustangs body twist haha. Some cars are fine running with t-tops(300zx, trans am, camaro) But fox's are notorious for twisting the body without the proper setup.

If you ever need a hand i have some experience working on them...we have a 92 notch in the garage and a few older ones (1965,66) haha

tcturbo91 · 02-28-2008, 11:31 PM

looks nice, not a huge fan of the 87-93 gt body kit. what done to the car as of now?

hypntcpimp · 02-28-2008, 11:51 PM

well just piked up some odds and ends tonight, got some new window molding the old ones were pretty bad, piked up some new interior peices, as of now its just a stock 5.0 with exhaust, not planning on doing much to this motor i have something else instore u guys are just gunna have to wait and see

i hopeing for low low low 9s, but we will see, thnx for the offer i will be needing a extra set of hands... pics will be up this weeknd if its nice out, also looking for someone who can do a photo shoot for me, some one point me in the rite direction lol.. stay tuned guys

PhillyLS1 · 02-29-2008, 12:09 AM

A vage will tie the car together if you're worried about flex or a subframe. Work on getting the car to hook before adding power, it'll help with the car twisting up too.
It's nice swapping around to different powerplants. Espcially if you had a complicated engine before. Pushrods v8's you can pretty much fix with a hammer.

james_ls · 02-29-2008, 01:07 AM

Cage it.

Bizee · 02-29-2008, 12:10 PM

if he thinks he is gonna be somewhere in the 9's id have to assume a cage and suspension would be going in before all the other junk parts do....
