That is just plain sick!
The Fox is already a very light car, but put such a powerful engine in it, and you literally end up with a rocket! You get a vary nice HP to weight ratio; I actually want to see what this sucker can do on the track!

A guy down my street used to have Fox in which he dropped in a bored and stroked 460. His specific engine was a 502 with the bore and stroke mods, and he was running 7's. His car was so powerful that the track forced him to have a scatter armored shield bell housing and at other areas up and down the driveshaft areas

Yeah, that's insane. I want to see it run at the track. I used to hang out with a guy that had a notch back with a 514 stroker and a Procharger. Riding in that car has given me a jaded perspective about the definition of a "fast car" lol. That car was so fast it would literally give you tunnel vision when it was in boost.

This is one of the coolest engine swaps ever... The guys over at Stangnet have been working on the same thing since they could get their hands on the engine. (I like the exterior of theirs a lot more) Here's a link... http://blog.fox50swap.com/

we will not be running this car at the track as it doesnt interest us... my partner bart and I both have hi 7 sec cars and driving a 10sec car isnt too exciting.. we did the swap to be the first and we succeeded.. we will be doing another very soon.

Um.. You don't need a "swap kit" The 5.0L bolts right in to the 05-09, FRPP sells all the parts you need, whatever is missing you can pick up from a wrecked 5.0 at a junk yard.
