[scott5]

luck

[casper gt]

good stuff :biggrin1: I'd go with manual brakes/steering though, one less problem & the install would be soooooooo much cleaner. good luck.

[Rodeheavers]

the hydro would be cool but man what a pain!! Good luck with it and shoot me a pm for any hard to find parts..

[jaa55]

Whats your selection on 99-01 cobra intakes? ;)

I should be able to get the hydroboost in, i already have a 2001 v6 booster in there so the holes are already reamed out

[jaa55]

:D

this will be sick when its finished up

[jaa55]

the only thing im not wild about is im going to be N/A for awhile and these are dished pistons, but im preparing for the future

[AdamantiumSilvr]

Looks like an interestin build, keep us posted for sure n good luck with it!

[jaa55]

Stock air cleaner after all that work putting it in? Course I'm just a dummy who runs stacks lol. Like the swap though, would be cool with a whipple on top.

[jaa55]

some type of forced induction is in the near future! I would have went with a JLT cold air intake but im afraid in wont fit in the fox and ill waste my money.......when i go to carlisle im hoping to browse and find something for it

If you want something else just make something. Use PVC pipe, JLTs are plastic anyway. I do like the look of the stock intake tube though.

[Shaffer]

Wow...nice setup... that 4v looks right at home in the fox. I like it a lot.

[jaa55]

Thanks guys!

[Rodeheavers]

that looks pretty sick man!!! I cant wait to hear it run!

[Shaun@StreetLethal]

The car looks awesome!

[talontsi92]

Totally awesome swap and a very clean install. Any further plans for it?

[jaa55]

Thanks guys!! it will be at carlisle!
its runs perfect, everything is great except i have a mystery rattle that sounds like its in my X pipe and i cant find it!!


Too many plans to list......next thing one of these three
paint
t56
or boost

[jaa55]

then again who knows what i might find at ford nationals.........maybe some LTs?

[somethingclever]

I vote track passes.....then T56....then boost....then more track passes.....then more boost...then more track passes....then more boost...(you see where I'm going with this) :)

[jaa55]

haha, i might do some track time with it

I dont look for it for to be very impressive until its super/turbo charged.....i think the 8.7ish:1 hurts it a little

[97LaserRed]

8.7:1 is that all 4v motors?? n/a

[jaa55]

no they are supposed to be something like 9.8:1...... I used a dished pistons
it wont be a bad thing when i start shoving air into the motor haha
