Steeda Fox Body project car!

[racermatt]

Steeda is thinking about doing a naturally aspirated push rod Fox Body build up. Any suggestions or ideas you guys would like to see from us?

Interested to see how it turns out. Will it be a 302, stock block?

 

[racermatt]

I'm not sure at this point if it's going to be 302 or 351 based but I am going to highly advise we stay away from the production 302 blocks.lol

 

[CW1343]

Good idea. Sub'n to the thread, looking forward to seeing it come together.

Things I would like to see:

-keep it 302 based, its the route most owners would probably go with
-personal preference, go with a GT hatchback, lol

Thats about it, looking forward to seeing what the outcome is. Maybe it'll give me some good ideas!

I'd go with a 351 stroked to a 427 shortblock. High compression, big cam, ya know.

^ what he said! Sub'd!

Notchback, 347 with a boss block, T56, see how high you can spin it on pump gas!

I like the ideas, what we are thinking is a road course set up for sure but not sure on the engine yet. GT or notch?

N/a so go big like 427 or 434 that's will be Reasonable

GT. Just go with a 347 NA. Keeping full interior?

notch all the way

If it is going to be more of a road course car I would go with a hatch style. It is just easier to get to everything if you have a roll bar/cage in it.

Yeah. Build my wagon for me. 1985 ltd wagon. Basically a street wagon. I want a long rod 351 roller cam engine with EEC-iv fuel injection. Put a t56 and a cobra terminator irs. Of course it will have cobra brakes all around. In the back put custom powdercoated cobra r's with the back spacing for a fox body. Up front use the regular cobra r back spacing. Original ford wheels of course. Use hydro boost out of a 1984 Lincoln continental with a modified brake pedal for the straight push rod. Get some 79-82 foxbody gt recaros reupholstered to match. It's all in my head.
