Default Hi!

Hi my name is Stephen and I just joined.

The reason I did that is because I want to ask about making a fox platform car ride and handle as well or better than an S197 car.

My dream is to build a Ford Fairmont 4 door sedan that rides and handles as well or better than an S197. I would be using it as a daily driver, so I would probably just swap a SOHC 4.6 into it, at least at first. Then I thought of throwing in a cobra IRS, subframe connectors, possibly a cage if it doesn't get in the way, some fancy aftermarket front suspension as well, and a late 80s mustang dash.

Welcome to MF, but you are better off asking these questions in the tech section.
