Well I knew you sold the 94, or at least that it was for sale. I check in on Stangnet from time to time and some of the "original crew" let me know about not being around as much, LOL.
Ha, cool. There've been a couple times where all of a sudden a lot of the original guys will pop in on a thread -- sort of a spur-of-the-moment reunion. I'm sure those guys would love to see the build if you posted up there. Looking forward to the progress, man!
wow, that is going to be one unique fox. great work!!!!
Stock 7.5 open diff is out of the car.
This is the 8.8 housing that is being narrowed and rebuild. Doesn't look like much, but hopefully next tim you see this, it will be a pretty peice.

I don't have alot of time to be in the garage this weekend, but I should finally have one of the tubs welding in the car. Got to finish boxing the frame rail and boxing in the lower torque box. If all goes well I should have pics of one side done this weekend.
You know, there was a '79 pace car in my area for sale forever, i'm talking months, this guy daily drove it and I passed it every day always thinking, "tomorrow i'm gonna stop and ask him about that car", and I kept forgetting, I stopped seeing it, theres a different car parked in that space now. I kick myself every day about it because yes it was beat to shit but it was cheap and could have been restored to something nice.
I'm normally not a fan of those car but the one your building is sweet.
Subscribed. Gonna be a killer build!
That stacked fuel injection is AMAZING!!!! Could you tell us where you located that system? Looking forward to future progress pix, thanks for sharing. :banana:
can't wait to see it done.
This is the one that I will probably go with. (scroll down to 4.6)
Stack EFI Manifolds
I think this is the same one as above.

I lost the link for the one on the first page of this thread, let me do some more digging. They done have it listed as an offering on their site, but the custom built it which probably means 2-3 times more than the one I linked to above.
yeah that's pretty much the best looking four eyed fox I've ever seen...
Thank you for sending these along..... Now to decide, do I want the power of my D1-SC orrrrr the look of that stacked injection? :shrug:
Here's a question, my vette does not have a throttle cable so how would it actuate those throttle bodies? I'm sure it's probably a simple solution, but what the heck do I know!
Thanks again.

Not sure on that one, I'm not lucky enough to own a vette, LOL. However I do know they have settle for LS motors, so someone must have done it, just not sure how. Maybe there is a cable retrofit for the vettes.
