Sounds good, but how about a tall deck Dart Aluminum block to go with it? But wait add two turbos and then i'm done

Maximum Motorsports Front Suspension, with Cobra IRS in the rear,

18" wheels with the biggest brakes possible

Lots of chassis bracing cuz foxes are a little bit too flexible

In a 90's Notch, paint it Liztick Red

Wow... that sounds awsome. The only thing I think that I would change on that whole setup would be the notch. I think I would have to use a hatch on that one.

Let’s see . . .

1986 Capri 5.0 (or 1983 Mustang GT) no t-tops (no sure on color combo, but Capri would be two-tone with factory ‘gray’ on lower half)

351 with all the goodies including A/C
Tremec TKO
3.55 gears
5-lug conversion
1999 Cobra Wheels (no polish or chrome) factory finish
Kenne Brown suspension stuff
Florida 5.0/Autometer gauge cluster
2.5 Cowl Hool
6 pt. Cage

That’s a brief general description . . . and one in which I plan to build someday . . .

It would be preeeety good looking and sounding too, I think it would be maintainable, just turn down the boost to like 15psi for long trips.

LoL just 15PSI. If I had a choice I think it would def. be a 89-93 GT. DSS 331 Stroker, AFR 185 heads, Bassani Full Exhaust, Maximum Motorsports Front and Rear suspension kit, 3:73's w/ a Stage II HP Performance Intercooled 66mm Hybrid Turbo. I could go on and on w/ details but I think that would be the basic set up. Thats prob. my biggest dream in life! Kind of pathetic but thats it.

hey Dan, Crash at www.got-pressure.com and www.trixtersracing.com has some sick turbo and procharger set-up and is a really good guy who is customer service oriented, talk to him sometime. BTW I am kind of crazy when it comes to turbos. i wanna run twin T-67s with twin intercoolers or maybe one huge 4 core.
Bassani Exhaust- But most turbos come with a custom exhaust because it is a nessecity.

I like the Kenny Brown suspension alot too, look at him and Maximum motorsports when u get a chance or if u do do any suspension work.
