fox body wheelie? whats it take
 
ive been toying with the idea of getting a old fox body with the whole reason for it is to do wheelies. im not talking big super ones just popping the fronts off the ground a few inches on a hard launch. what do you think it would take to do that?

Slicks and a small shot of nitrous.

slicks and bottle is about right, good set of gears also...

what do you think it would take for mine to get the fronts off the gorund? i wanna replace the gears in the back since i've got the tiny little highway gears 2.73's but most of my mods are listed, think that 3.55's would give enough acceleration to pick the fronts up?

i would go with at least 4.10s, and leaning more towards 4.30s if your staying n/a and have the suspension to back it up

ditto on what he said at least 4.10s for it, get the upper and lowers to hold it and be prepared to break something at some point..
