i did and it is because its not a stroker. lol. just a lowly ol' 302

maybe. You have a fox, k-member, and bigger headers. I have an SN, stock k-member, and smaller tubes. I'm sure those differences are enough to mix things up a little bit..


Although i would love to have a tubular k-member and a-arms with coilovers

well ill give you my 2 cents, my mac longtubes were a pain in the dick because i had to remove my steering linkage and maybe it was just my car but it was a hassle, but about three hours later i had it done, just some food for thought.

The steering shaft comes off and moves out of the way with the removal of one bolt. I thought jacking up the motor to get the passenger side in was a bigger pain...

I hear the quickest way is to lift the car on jacks and then unbolt the engine mounts. After that is done use a jack and push the engine up a few inches and that will give you room to install both headers in minutes.

Before I got my stang it had 1 longtube on before the last owner realized he didnt have the correct studs. He said it took him 30 minutes to get both in using that technique (not bolted down obviously).

Motor is completely out. I'm not worried about install. Just wondering more on spec differences vs cost. Kinda missing the point of my thread.

im happy with mine (mac 1 5/8) but they are kinda a pain to do but well worth it.
