Hmm. Looking at 347 strokers, seeing if my mechanic buddy wants to build me another one. He built one for me nearly 20 years ago.

I agree. I've had quite a bit thumbs up in the 90. Many don't have a clue about the terminator. But it is awesome being at a light and getting on it. I often look in my rear view mirror and see the driver of the car that was next to me with a huge smile!

I think it's the body style overall Brady. People see the Cobra body style and just see a new edge Mustang. The Fox Body is just unique and everybody loves it. I have 2 Terminators and still wish I had my 89GT. Terminators cannot take away my Fox Body cravings LOL.

I always break my neck when I see a Fox Body driving by. More so than if I see a Terminator, GT500 or Hellcat on the road.

And I agree, nothing sounds better than a cammed pushrod motor IMO.

Received the last piece needed to upgrade my 97 mustang SN95 steering rack. It's a mm hybrid steering shaft.

Wondering if the whole thing can be painted black to prevent rust?

Plan on doing this mod in spring, car is in need of an alignment anyways. Hopefully this mod tightens up the "loose" feeling that the fox rack has.

If the steering feels loose. Check your inter tie rod ends. They are notorious for going bad. Does the car have caster camber plates ?

I primed and painted my MM Solid shaft on my 98.
Do you already have solid rack bushings? That was a big noticeable difference up front.

I have new ones, but not solid.

I'm sure others will say the same. A well spent $40. Between those and your solid steering shaft you should be happy.

Well after removing some of my SN95 steering shaft, I'm not sure if this is normal?

Passenger side is first picture and drivers side is second picture. The third picture is what fell out when removing the passenger side bellow.

I only have 85 dollars in this rack. I think I'm going to send it to TurnOne a rebuild. Maximum Motorsports recommends them.

I just recently replaced my rack. They are relatively cheap and since it’s already off you would be better off ordering a reman or new. That one has stuff falling off of it lol

Unfortunately I bought this off eBay for 80 dollars. At this point, I'm probably better off just having TurnOne check it over. Though that could cost 300 dollars.

I can't seem to find a 99-04 mustang reman that doesn't want a core.

Breaks loose in 4th!!!!! OMG! OK, now you MUST do a video. Nothing like a big power turbo setup like yours. I'm ready for a "ride" in the passenger seat.

Turbo foxs are a riot. Zero traction if you haven’t done work.

My 90 single turbo dynoed 459/503 and would break loose in fourth a little. Felt almost as quick as my current Cobra on 20psi and E85 but I doubt it actually was.

I drove her to the gym and then a little exercise after. It still needs a tune after the motor swap and Kenne Bell install, but less than half throttle I have good AFR and she runs great. I love these cars. I need to finish my notch now
