  • Got my ass whooped by a...

    F*cking MINIVAN! Ugh, its so hard to keep myself from modding this car. I like to play around with it now and then, but I drive it 600 miles every single weekend. Fox bodies are turds in their stock form.

    Lmao really?

    You won't hurt relabilty with a good heads/cam combo.

    I daily drove a trickflow tw, lunatics 51014, cobra intake. For 7 years.

    Never took a valve cover off the whole time I had the motor.

    Solid 8.2 on motor. 7.5 on a shot all day long.

      8.2 on motor? Eek..

      What kind of mini van was this? Wtf lol they're turds for sure but I'd assume that car needs a driver mod!

      A good running stocker should go low 9s in the 1/8th on street tires with no problem, one with gears and a little tweaking and some sticky tires is good for mid 8s or better.

      Mine bone stock with a slipping clutch ran a 9.3 on street tires and 8.9 on drag radials. 2.73 gears! ~79-80mph

      3.73s, slicks, pullies, off road h, timing adv, short belt and alum driveshaft netted me an 8.40 more then once. Over 81mph. I gain ~2-3 mph from slicks. The OPPISITE of normal. LOL

      I daily drive mine, it's still stockish but not much longer. I've driven it this way for almost 3 years now, 20-22mpg hwy. Never had any issues other then stuff I've broke such as that slipping clutch!

      320rwhp. 7.67 @ 90mph 1.7 60'

        Toyota mini van? Those are around 270'ish hp. From the right speed in a roll race that could easily mean a loss for a stock foxbody.

            Mike i only ran it 3 times on motor haha. Also that was a nitrous tune up the old fashion way.

            Mine was a weird car. I still ran a clutch fan, stock t/b, and so on. There was alot left in the motor, but it was a fun and reliable.

            On the street it would magically beat 8.0 cars all day long on motor
