If I do it, I'll use the 96-98 Cobra engine with the later PI heads and such. I do like the way they pull and sound.

There's not a day that goes by that I don't imagine how awesome it would be to swap drivetraines from my 32v mark into the fox.

The markviii would be crap to drive with the 302 in it though.
The fox on the other hand, WATCH OUT!

Talk about a sleeper!

Yeah, it would be. Nice quiet exhaust and the ability to extract gobs of HP before you need to start getting loud. The Mark is actually going to my son who is now 14.5 years old. (For any of you that have kids, you need to address their age ACCURATELY!) My son wants me to trade it for a notchback for him. He loves my 88 stang. I truly enjoy driving the Mark. But you are right, it would suck with a 302 in it. Like yours, mine is SCT tuned, MMX driveshaft, entire suspension has poly bushings, coil over conversion, cross drilled rotors, EBC pads, 4.10 gears, 255 LPH pump and some other stuff that I'm sure I've forgotten about.

Well the best thing I had happened to me a little while back on my way home from work. By shear luck, and I do mean luck, we were all at a red light, and in a row:
Sn-197 Black GT
Sn-95 Edge Red Sixer
My Sn-95 Yellow GT
Foxbody White LX 5.0

That's never happened to me ever, or since, now I've been behind, or in a line, or in the same general area as edges and Sn-197s, but never actually got a foxbody in there.
