oh and as for guages in the car some are really needed for a carbed fox , shift light is needed when shifting above 6k to 6500k cause the factory rpm guage goes wackko after 5800 rpm and to be consistant for bracket racing its truly needed even on a strip street car , oxygen sensor hooked up to a rich lean guage is need if you want to tune your carb ..carb jets , spark plug gaps and heat range etc this guage wil;l help you tune , vacume guage very important on a carb car , for tuning the carb and it also tells you if you have any miss fires due to bad coil bad plug bad wire even tells you if you blew a head gasket etc and 3rg guage in the guage cage like they called it back then that goes into the vent slot on dash board the 3rd guage is fuel pressure and no you dont look at guages all day while you drive.. the guages are there to help you tune your carbed fox like i said earlier we didnt have tuners and dynos back then , we did everything on our own with the help of the 3 guages in the guage cage , what i find stupid today is a guy driving down the street in his mustang and instead of a hot girl riding shotgun with him he has a laptop in the seat instead hahahahaha

I inherited my dad's 89 GT convertible when he passed a couple years ago. He committed 5 of the offenses, and it pains me because it is a 90,000 mile car and he was the second owner. I've been working to undo all of the offenses: Monster tach, old school BFG Comp T/A's that stuck out past the rear fenders (actually were rubbing so he installed AIR SHOCKS to lift it!), shitty raised Cobra R hood with the SVO scoop, one piece headlights, AND a carb swap! At least he was clever enough to do the carb swap in such a way that I am easily able to refit EFI to it... he retained the factory fuel pump and distributor, while not cutting any wiring. He rigged up a monster fuel pressure regulator to crank down the fuel pressure. He retained the TFI distributor while keeping the ECU for spark purposes only. He simply unplugged the fuel injection harness at the salt & pepper shakers, and ran 2 wires to the oil pressure & water temp sending units to retain factory gauges.

efi to carb , heres why , back in 1993 was common because back then if you did a cam change and bigger injectors and bigger throttle body and mass air meter and shorty headers or long tubes bigger fuel pumps etc your mods would not be at their 100 % capability because of the stock computer , in order to optimise your mods you needed to buy the ford motorsport piggy back system and a lap top to tune your fox , well back then those 2 items alone would run you about 10 000 dollars which was rediculous but what was more rediculous was the fact that noone knew how to tune on a laptop and people would spend days and weeks on the phone with the ford racing hot line guy trying to trouble shoot your piggy back system via a laptop , remember this is 1993 when 1 % of the population knew how to tune on a laptop , this is why many many guys opted to throw in a e303 cam a performer rpm intake and a 650 dp holley carb a set of 373 gears and run low 12,s all day long and if you were daring enough you would put in a nitrous kit and with under 1000 dollars you had yourself an 11 second quarter mile fox , there ya have it ...thats why people back in the day converted from efi to carb ,,oh and yes vortech and paxton supercharges were available back then and those who used them could never do a clean pass down the track cause noone knew how to tune back then and yes they all pulled their paxtons off and went the carb route and were happy fox body owners ,,earlly to mid 90,s was hell for the efi street strip enthusiast so they all went to a carb setup or just threw in a set of heads a cam and nitrous and stayed with their efi

@rustyzipper63043 жыл бұрын
#1 for me is cowl hoods. They are like the mullets of the automotive world. Just because every other Fox you see has one, doesn't mean it looks good. #2 is ANY tach installed in a car that didn't have one originally. If you don't know when to shift your car by sound and feel, without a tach and a light, maybe you should stick to driving an automatic. #3 is when you open a hood and it looks like a box of Crayola Crayons puked in your engine bay. A single accent color is okay, but having a red distributor cap, yellow wires, blue hoses or wire wrap and every other color of the rainbow in there just looks tacky. #4 Flowmaster mufflers, again, this is a belly-button mod that every Tom, Dick and Harry out there thinks is so cool. Is it any wonder why you can go on Marketplace and see a ton of these used mufflers on there? They are annoyingly loud and after 5 minutes driving your car with them on, you will wish you had something else on there. #5 is smoked anything (headlight or tail lights). If you think you are going to intimidate people with your "murdered out" look of smoked lenses, think again. It's just looks cheesy. #6 is tires that stick out beyond the lip of the fenders. Having a wider contact patch with those wide tires is great for hooking up, but if your tires stick out beyond the fenders, you may as well be driving around in one of those ricers that do the same thing. Buy a proper set of backspaced wheels and tuck those tires in. #7 putting anything other than a Ford engine in your Fox. Self explanatory, Ford in a Ford is just proper.

I hate how people used to start with a nice original 5.0 and then turn it into a gutted out race car. It make ZERO sense to do that. They could have saved some money and bought the same car but with a 4 cylinder for 50-75% less and then made that into a race car and saving an original 5.0 in the process. If you're going to swap all the original engine, trans, suspension, interior, etc. for race car crap there is NO ADVANTAGE to starting with a 5.0.

My worst...lesson learned...dont install a body kit that is not made to fit your car..never again.it will look good when its done.but yup.i f#$ked up. Cut and add 4 inches length to front sides and shrink 2 inches in the front..never buy a used kit.

One piece headlights are trash in every application. None of them look good. If you disagree it’s probably because you have a one piece headlight looking face. Go buy some jdm garbage and sell your fox to someone with taste! I agree with the hoods/hood pins especially when it’s strictly for looks. Body kits are a personal preference...as long as they’re done well (hung, painted, aligned etc).

1. body kits on coupes are worse than a prostate exam on groundhog day. 2. unless its a special edition, a rare color, or super low miles, STOCK SUCKS 3. cheese grater and euro taillights are effing hideous 4. one piece headlights blow 5. hatches\fastbacks have ALWAYS been the better looking mustang, since 1964 6. its a perfomance car, lets not make it a grandma car 7. LS swaps are for lazy, cheap, chevy guys. 8. if it dont make it faster, its not really neccessary 9. if your fox is a legit fast street car and not a poser, after market hoods are fine 10. Shelby stripes on non Shelby cars is just dumb. 11. rear tires sticking out, big meats are cool but damn, get the right wheel offset and mini tub it if you have too. 12. not every foxbody needs a black interior 13. super low profile tires, useless 14. 14" gold Dayton wire wheels, useless 15. 2 racing seats are ok on a legit fast street car

Old video I know but I have to add my 2¢, A/C delete and rear seat delete are the dumbest things ever, ever! Don’t do it! Also agree with everything you listed and second the EFI delete. Basically don’t delete and or go backwards. Also don’t make it a ricer, no body kits and don’t lower to a stupid level where you can’t even drive it normal. It’s American Muscle, treat it appropriately or just buy a Honda, lower it so you can’t go over a speed bump, put some stupid graphics on it, some LEDs, a fat can, and big stupid wing.
