Hi, New guy here just wanted to say hello to all and I look forward to the ride.

very nice fox tell us a little about it

[jimbob1276]

Thanks, it's a '85 that I have swapped the front end out to a '92. I designed the paint job but, had it painted. It does have a 2 5/8" cowl hood. Stock ponys with 245 50 16 tires. I installed 2 1/2 " exhaust no cats, h pipe w/ 2 chamber 40 series flows and shorty headers and 3 inch rolled tips. I recently bought a BBK SSI intake setup and the heads have oversized valves and a three angle vale job and ported and polished ports. I installed full roller ford racing rockers(1.6) and valve springs along with E303 cam. The bottom end is all stock clearances with arp bolts throughout engine and chromemoly rings. Ford racing clutch and re-geared stock t-5 w/ B&M proripper shifter and a posi 3:73 rear end. I just installed a Comp. Engineering roll cage 8 point. And am soon to buy some new injectors and MAF meter. And of course I will probably have to upgrade the fuel pump and regulator which I am prepared to do. There is more but, I just can't think of it all. Any questions I love to talk about it. The interior is a work in project as we speak.

If your wondering it was a 4 cylinder car when I got it.

Welcome.

How do you like the BBK intake? I haven't heard much about it because I've sorta fallen out of the 5.0 loop. I remember it looking very interesting though when BBK had some prototypes out.

As far as looking at it, I like it. I just got it in this past week and havent installed it yet. It is all ready for install this next week. An interesting fact I wasnt aware of is that it is a free air lower intake. I gotta say it is one heavy setup I scaled it at 53lbs. that is the throttle body, upper, lower, and fule rails. I hope to post some pics this next week of it actually installed. It is one good looking set up. I posted a pic of it on my profile.
