Btw this is an engine bay (albeit an S550) that I’m drawing some serious inspiration from for my final product. View attachment 1673338
Hahaha you know I don’t mess with thoseWhere are you going to put your air filters???
If everyone took your route of being good enough there would be no Forces, Garlits, Jordans, Woods, Pettys, Gretzkys, Howes because they settled for ok, "it's good enough" after being told their dreams were unattainable. Striving to be the best is what made the USA. Many have forgotten about that.Without a doubt this is one of the nicest fox builds I've seen. But trying to be the best at anything in the automotive world is a losing battle I'm sure you as much as anyone else knows. As soon as you are the best you aren't anymore. Once this is the nicest, or fastest, or quickest or most anything fox you'll probably hate driving it because it won't be street able or enjoyable. If I were you I would stop chasing an unachievable internet title and build the car you want. What you have is a pipedream for most, what your shooting for is legendary. Don't set your goals to appease the masses because you will always lose.

I’m not doing it for recognition or for people to think anything about me. If you know the history behind why I built this car, you know the car is a living tribute to the most important person in my life. That’s what drives me to accomplish a level of elite that sets the car above all others. That means, you can’t find anything to pick apart when you see it. Right now, I can find handfuls of things that aren’t perfect. I’ll perfect those and leave no stone unturned in the process. I’ve never been the type to set my goals on “decent” or “good enough”. To me, that’s soft and pointless. I’ll build the car to be the best in the world in my eyes, and do my best to make sure I don’t give the masses a tangible excuse to disagreeIf everyone took your route of being good enough there would be no Forces, Garlits, Jordans, Woods, Pettys, Gretzkys, Howes because they settled for ok, "it's good enough" after being told their dreams were unattainable.

And yes, I too failed to reach my best by accepting "good enough" during my lifetime that has most of it in the rearview mirror at this point.
The block is o-ringed. And it’s a street car so coolant is my friend lolIf it has coolant jackets and no o-rings I don't see how it's going to be one the most powerful but it is one hell of a car.
So random thought, semi motivated by an Instagram post that rubbed me the wrong way (a fair one at that, declaring my car wasn’t in the discussion for the top fox out there). I’m telling you all right now, no arrogance, no cockiness, I’m determined to have THE nicest overall fox body street car on the planet when this round of upgrades is complete. Design, power, cleanliness, attention to detail, etc. I’ve just had a fire lit. Prepare for this car to be disgusting with no stone unturned and no expense spared. I’m not a proud dude. But I am a competitive one.
@byepolrnotch on IG
don’t apologize lol you helped motivate me big time and thank you for your appreciation of the car in generalHmmm....I was the one who brought your car into that discussion, so my apologies for those who didn't see your car on the same level as I do. You know where I stand.
Everything and I do mean everything that was in the car is spoken for. Motor, trans, axle, turbo kit...all of it lolWhat will you do with the old engine? I would of slapped the guy that said that about this notch on IG. Most dont understand the attention to detail this car has.
