Default Some pics of my Fox Mustang conversion.

I sold the car over a year ago, but there's been a lot of Mustang threads lately, so I thought I would post these up.

The headers are modified Mac Fox 351 LT's. The motor was a stock internal '01, with a TH350, manual valve body - Yank PT3500(I think). Slightly beefed up 8.8 rear. Full Wolfe Racing rear suspension. QA1 K-member - for '96+ cars. Flaming River rack, steering linkage. All Auto Meter gauges, custom dash plate.

2500 lbs w/out driver.

Had the complete Aeromotive Fox kit(got a good deal on a used setup), with sump tank(that did not work very well, changed it out for a Jegs sumped tank), A1000 pump and regulator, and Aeromotive fuel rails(Ford) that I turned around and made brackets for.

Depends on your steering rack/linkage I guess. Since I had all Fox Mustang stuff, I had to have Macs to go around the steering shaft - like they do with the 351W.

what he said. Does the computer need to know the engine is cranking or can the CPS take care of that? It'd be easier to leave the stock starting system intact IMO
