Question to you guys.
i decided to do a single turbo (DNA gt45 i guess)
since i ll face smog issues anyways in cali there is no need in beeing reasonable and go non turbo i think...😁
i ll do simple mild steel pipingbi guess..
what manifolds? Truck vs ebay turbo headers?
further keep AC or dump it? I m in cali so AC is appreciated unless its hard to get the LS truck AC setup to run in a ford.
Anybody did a working AC swap?
Keep it. You can drive it on a hot day and be comfy! Well worth it. Check these out, I'll post more when I find them.
nice..
this all refers to using the ford ac compressor? Mine was shot.lol
i have the orig ls truck ac unit...can i use that one?
or i rather get a ford compressor somewhere.
i have all lines of course.
If you use the gm compressor, I believe you keep the factory gm wiring and sensors, you just have to have the hoses custom made. If you fab the brackets, and use the factory compressor, I believe it's easier. Do a search as there's more info on this site. I have a 2002 GT lined up, waiting on paperwork for it though. Then I'll do a 6 liter swap. That's why I did some research on this already

yea factory ford compressor seems easier... I kept all fac. AC lines already.
Sorry guys i have to announce that this build stops here.
i traded my project for a nice 93 Fox body GT 5 speed. I need a running car and it was a really good deal incl. Smog and registration paid by the other party.
This is my 1st fox, it is pretty unmplested has a couple bolt ons and i know the previous owner. The AC works and the interior is nice as well. Will i keep it stock? HELL NO. The big wheels i got for the new edge will find its way onto the fox. Impossible?? We will see!
thanks for the support for now
Sorry it took so long to update the Fox trade pics...
Btw I built it right away to a nice lol curve cutter..
93' GT 5 speed . stock appearance with a couple bbk part updates. It is a very clean fox. With good heater and a.c. that's why I took it as a trade.
I did
Raceland coilovers
Used the rims I planned for the new edge 18x11....
That meant I had to create space and so I fitted up the fox and fender flared it + LX rear since I like it better.
I blacked it all out and painted it with rustoleum satin black in my garage....came out awesome...
