      Lol at everyone telling him what he should have done differently. If you took the time to read the 3 sentences he wrote above the pictures you'd see that he bought it the way it sits.

      Too bad it's still slow Jeffy ;)

                Awesome, we'll need a new video then!

                Reliable and powerful, sounds appealing to me!

                  Americans make the messiest engines, and ontop of that hideous cosmolined bay......gross
                  Do you two children care to show us your engine bays? You guys are just a couple of haters with nothing better to do than sit behind your keyboard and talk big on the Internet.

                  OP: great pick up. I'm sure you'll have it all clean and upgraded to your liking pretty quickly. And I don't understand anyone who hates on an e30 with an american v8 in it... They are reliable, cheap, easy to work on and you can get very, very cheap power out of them. Good stuff!

                    IIRC the fox body was loved so because it was light. Doesn't it make just over over 200 hp? Wouldn't you do better with an s50 for power to weight? I do understand its an american v8 so bolt ons are a time a dozen, but but without them s50 has to better, albeit more expensive, but also more fuel efficient. Who cares its still cool! Now Cam, heads, intake and headers!

                      This is far cheaper hp than milking more from an S5x. If it was all aluminum it may even improve the weight and position since V8's sit a little further back than the long inline 6.

                          After reading the title I was just going to come in here and post "Hate it" just because. :p
                          But damn, now I can't and I almost lose it! Can't fully love it since its a Ford..but still.

                          Do you know how the remote booster is activated? Any pics of the linkage coming off the pedal or out of the firewall?

                            It uses a bell crank setup just like the E32/34 V8s, but required the use of a custom bracket

                              Do you know what booster setup you're running?

                              Edit: Just read the above post. Thanks.
