It's funny when you can take an A4 LS2 GTO and clean the streets with the 13.0-13.5 second Fox's that dominated 10 yrs ago. Hell I thought my 12.9 5.0 was untouchable.... Nice vid

I'm speak of majority, not the few 10 sec Fox's that were out there then.

The Fox basically had NOTHING done to it to make it fast.
The video stated he had an E-Cam with GT40 intake.........??? So he put a cam into a Mustang with STOCK E7 heads. Great way to slow the car down. HEADS are needed with any cam inside a 302. The E7 are pathetic (and that's being nice). The fox owner needs to throw about $700 -$1000 at a set of aluminum heads (****, take his pick as there is a plethora of choices) and some 1.6 roller rockers. Pull the 3.73's out the rear in exchange for some 3.55's, get it tuned and go at it again. The car won't be the fastest thing on wheels but it will make it a lot more respectable then it is now.
Cam and intake with no heads are killing that car.

Word, I had a 89 Fox with holly system max kit (heads + Cam) and that made the car a monster sold it not long after but it should have made close to 300 at the tires.

It's funny watching the second run with the A4 GTO. 40MPH is such a dead spot. I 100% refuse to start a race going 40MPH or anything over 55MPH, otherwise I'm stuck in the middle of 2nd or 3rd gear depending. Great video, and as far as the music goes... at least it wasn't rap so +1

I agree with the point you are trying to make, however, in another thread OP stated they were ported. ALthough not the greatest of choices, still something. I think we all know an E cam sucks ballZ in a 5.0 though. ALso, the other thread mentioned bigs and skinnies. I'm curious, why do you think 3.55s over 3.73s would be a better choice? I can't see that being accurate.

Also, the mach owner has had the car for less than a month, so I was impressed with how he did.

There ported E7s with diff springs and rocker arms. Not sure which arms tho. All I know is there ported to hell in back, along with the GT40 intake. Oh and how would 3.55s be better then 373s? thats crazyy
