I have the top end package in my 1983 vert fox and run a 12.9 with 3:73's on MT ET Streets. After subframes were installed i ran a 12.6 and only on a 650 holley.

Those are some good times. You almost have the same engine setup I do. What tranny are you running?

i dunno i just looked into the top end kit cause it would be a cheaper route for me to take, as opposed to getting a $4k block and having it shipped. i emailed jim at fordstrokers and he said hes busy with the move right now but hed be glad to talk to me when theyre done

I have the stock T5 non-worldclass from 1983 :/ Iv only had the motor for 2 years and the top end package came on a year ago but I mean U think the tranny would give pretty quickly but no its still running strong.
