    So I think I know what I want to do for the motor. Can you say 5.4l lightning swap? Lol. I doubt I'll actually do this but it would be sweet.

    Yes but those are $$$$$ I wish I could find one those. Even a stock coyote engine would be sick.

    You can find a coyote from a f150 cheaper.. then get a boss 302 intake for under $500 and it would be plenty of power in a fox!

    Thanks I hope so. I want this to be a measure twice, cut once type build so it may take a little time but it will be worth it.

    you know that red coupe you posted gets NO TRACTION with those tires ha ha. would be a badass swap though. I cant stand the people who do LS swaps in those cars

    Haha. Definitely not. He'd spin for days. Lol. Me either. They are just cheap for the amount of hp you can get with one. I'm really wanting for find a donor for a coyote swap.
