Careful not to get on it while its in OD I have a 91LX 5.0 amd everyone warns me about the tranny not being the best. I have already rebuilt it once from getting it to hard while in OD. I start out in D and let it redline shift itself and once its screaming I will pop it in to OD to get that smooth top end. Oh yeah the *** end will come out if you punch it on a turn. Maybe its just mine but the steering in these fox bodies is loose and hard to get control of once it starts swaying. Have fun and be careful.

There's a dirty joke inhere somewhere that I don't have the ***** to say.

ORIGINAL: Wisconsin 5.0

Once the weather breaks I'm taking my 15 year old daughter and the GT over to the empty (as in closed) Walmart parking lot and teaching her how to drive a clutch...should be fun...once she gets the hang of it I'm planning on letting her break the rear end loose just so she knows how it feels! Think I'll take the video camera!
That is just wrong man, as far as the complete post, regarding his daughter.
Ha, you guys are funny.... get your minds out of the gutter for a least a few seconds.........ok, now put them back.
