'87 LX Notch $400
Im probably going to buy a 4cyl (running) 87 notch today. I have wanted a trunk model for a couple of years now. I own 3 stangs already an '03GT and 2 '85 hatches. I know how desireable these trunks are and my question is should I back half it and make a street/STRIP car out of it or just put an 8.8 and some 10.5 inch tires behind it and go racing. Im thinking either a supercharged carbed 347 or a N/A 408 stroker. Which one should I go with on this light stang.

RE: '87 LX Notch $400
all in how fast you want to go and how much you want to spend. We made it into the 9's with 10 inch slicks pulled by a SC 347.

The tracks we mostly run are 1/8 mile. If I could get into the low to mid 6's, that would be fine with me. I have no desire to go faster than that. I mostly want a BADASS street car that I can take to the track and then lay down some good numbers.

well first some states will not inspect a car that has been tubbed[:@] check that out.....you could mini tub it to put some nice 12.50's under it..of coarse with a large hammer and some muscle you could do with out mini tubes..... also a thought is to use a 200 shot this way the car will only get abused in races:D

If anybody has been watching Horsepower TV or MuscleCar on Spike TV, I think this is the direction I want to go in with the 4 link. That car is bad already and it still has a weak motor!

RE: '87 LX Notch $400
I just watched that i was thinking the same thing and also hehe i want that motor lol might be weak but would be pretty good on the street show some ricers what real power and tire spin is about. if i remember that motor had no traction when they first built it

RE: '87 LX Notch $400
Yeah they were showing you how to adjust the 4 link for traction. They finally got him hooked up and now they are going to put a turbo on it. Ill stick with spray or a blower. But I like the setup they have on that mustang and it would still be streetable which is what Im looking for!!!
