SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET...that call for a good 4 inch cowl hood =) Better yet how about clear plexiglass just where the cowl would be so the ricers could see it and piss their pants. If those trucks run 13's imagine what the fox body will run...just have a big lightning bolt painted from the front to the back of the car

You wouldnt have to paint a Lighting stripe on the side for me. One would probably shoot out my A$$ the first time I FLOORED the gas. Hell, one would probably shoot out my behind everytime I got down on the gas.

I wonder if the cracks in the windshield are from the first test drive. I imagine the Flexing Fox chassis, with that much torque is bound to twist it.

Okay, nevermind, I just realized NOTHING is hooked up on the engine. Opps.

Thumbs up

I'm suprized that no one has dropped the Cobra R engine in a Fox. You do know that it's legal now, right?

Too bad they just dropped it in for the pics. I'd love to see that done for real.

What do you mean by bieng Legal NOW? Was it illegal or something? Well I guess if something isntlegal that would make it Illegal then wouldnt it!

Oh oh oh I gotta get one of those. Illegal - smellegal. Go for it. What is the weight difference between the to vehicles. I would guess a whole D**n bunch. I guess some has alot of money to just spend. How much does a new Lightning engine cost, I would guess 5 or six thousand and that just for the long block.

I believe you can buy the lightning engine with the supercharger and all for $7995. It was in a magazine I read.

Imagine how long you could lay a patch for with that much torque? I wouldn't want it, I couldn't afford the tires

To someone long enough to try that. I would much rather have a cobra R motor though. Put a super charger on that thing and see what it could do.
