Who cares? How much could you save by doing it yourself? $30? once every 100K. Not a big deal.

the notch isn't worth the extra $$$$$ because of 100 pounds...the notch's body is more ridgit though way better than a hatch for racing

yea man i have a 94 gt and i got my *** handed to me from a stock 93 fox..they come with more hp. i think its because there is more room under the hood allowing for a bigger intake(correct me if im wrong) and they are ALOT lighter than the 94/95's 5.0 is the way to go though...easy to work on. me and my buddy changed my clutch in an hour and a half with little experience... let me know what you get. IMO get a fox...they wont ever be around again.. get one and maintain it(baby it like you will never have another car) and in 20 years sell it for 5 times what you paid for it.

Dont think a 30 year old fox will be worth 30K. Lucky you will get what you paid for it.
