Sounds like something was wrong with your SN95. They should run low 15's stock even with that many miles. From what I have found miles don't really hurt 5L performance. I had a H/C package on my car at 156K and was running 13.2@105.5 with a basic H/C. Ezridn on the board ran 14.4's with a 87GT 5spd STOCK with 208K on it. My freinds with 197K went 14.4's with bolt ons and 3.55's. I would say something was wrong with your car.
As for the differences the fox's are a good 200lbs lighter, all the 87-92's had forged pistons which means they like power adders better. In 94-95 they changed the intake and it is more restrictive but they get alot of pluses like real brakes and a fancy interior. The foxes are easier to mod and cheaper.
Do full exhaust, gears, shifter and pullies and you will love the way the car feels!
