1st off, that much power (to run 8's in the 1/4) would twist a stock stang enough that you could put it in a tequila shot instead of a lime.... do I even need a 2nd point????[sm=bs.gif]
I think i do... dont understand any of this...
btw, i like tequila...
MMmmm...tequila..

Anyway, a stock fox has a LOT of flex. You would have to have some major chassis support and, most likely, a lot of fabrication to get it to the end of a run w/ that kind of power w/o causing any frame damage. I know a guy that broke his winshield b/c he didn't have any chassis support, and he was N/A (w/ slicks, of course).
