I know what I want but I'm wondering if theres any differences between the notchback and hatchback and reasons why some choose each. I know I want a mass air 5.0 fox from 89-92 since they changed the piston metariel in 93(and late 92). I just cant decide what I want hatch or notch. I got a vert but Im looking to sell it. Theres not that many notchs by me(new york long island) but there are many hatchs I kinda dont want to be like everyone else thats why I want a notch but is there any major physical differences between the two. And whats better for what.

there is no reason why you shouldnt look at 87-88's and 93's, so what the 87-88's didnt come with mass air, SD is fine for most applications. And 93's had hyper pistons, so what! I bet you dont even make enough power to actually need a forged piston

alright so i will open up my eyes but i only said what i said because what I was told and taught by others.

The only differences are the rear space, you get a trunk for room in the notch or you get the open to the cabin hatch for room in the hatch. The other difference, and pretty much the only reason people go one over the other(besides how they look), notches are lighter.

Notches weigh less

There is really no difference other than what you see, the weight is not that much less. You wont see as many notches because they are hard to come by, they did not make as many. And you will pay substancially more for a nice notch vs a nice hatch. Just get what you like best.
