OH OKAY, i AGREE IT IS TOUGH , BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT WHEN i GO....bracket racing I can do well, just haven't been to do it in a while cause to do it regularly it is costly monitarily and hard on the car week in and week out, so I don't do it to much anymore as I push the stock stuff to the limit to often on the 92 and have went through a few t-5's and on the second rear now!!...hopefully I can have the 85 ready for next week, gotta readjust the valves still, just put the line lock in thursday and gotta get the bottle filled if I decide to spray it for my one run before getting told to slow it down!!LOL also gotta undo the sway bar links, Hey John.....do they sell quick disconnect / removable sway bar links for foxes???

for what is worth I got a friend that runs high 12s with a stock 5.0 set up last time I talked with him the heads had never been off the car. It did have 1.7 rockers and a Explorer intake and a 65mm T/B good exhaust and 3.73 gears and good suspension. So I think you can run better then a 14.0 by all means . He runs it in the NMRA factory stock class some times and is way off the class times. So I am for ya Roost keep us updated

dude, i believe in you, ive seen some random **** happen. My buddy's cousin was talking about taking a relatively stock 5.0 to low 13's and beating the **** out of vipers and vettes out of the hole (redmachandorangefox, his cousin had the fox before him and was talking about it)
i dunno, im skeptical, but i hope you get there, good luck catchin traction, but i honestly dont think youll get there until you at least get a few suspention mods
