alomost, i was working on the tune today. but somehow the tranny linkage is coming out of adjustment and i can't find park, so i have to take it back off the dyno and fix that before i can finish..

wow...picked up 100hp and 100ft-lbs....very impressive...does it have shortys or long tubes?

Rodeheavers

It has equal length shortys. I thought that was right on par. We installed a trickflow H/C/I package with the track heat intake, roller rockers, 70mm t-body, #24 injectors, bbk maf, autolite 3924 plugs, custom billet convertor and a custom Rodeheavers tune! Those hci kits brag 360 at the flywheel. and we added a few goodies to it.

It is a totally different car!!!! I have no problem now melting the tires on a 20mph roll off!! Tim and his gang did such a great job, that its goin back in next week for more!!!!!!! We are going to lose the AOD and put in a new 5 speed!! Tim will have to chime in and tell you guys the specs/brands of the goodies to come! I am not sure! I just told him to order what he recommends and do it! I value/trust his opinion! Thanks again RODEHEAVERS for bringing my fox to life!:plane:


IF ANYONE IS LOOKING FOR AN AOD I WILL SELL IT AT A GOOD PRICE! ALSO THE NEW STALL SPEED CONVERTER WILL BE FOR SELL WITH IT OR SEPERATE! THE CONVERTER WILL HAVE LESS THAN A 100 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANNY ITSELF IS FAIRLY FRESH!!!!
