A good set of adjustable control arms and shocks and struts are a good place to start!

Dave is a good guy. He won't do you wrong.

is there a club or say a group of fox bodies that get together on the weekends down around your area that cruise around and just hang out for an evening.There really isnt anything going on around here except a bunch of older guys and gals that hang out at Advance Auto Parts with old cars and such,not that theres anything wrong with that.Theres just something about the mustang that you just want to be part of if you know what I mean.

I would get a 2step limiter and work on launch RPM. Thats alot of TQ and a really hard hit on those tires. You could try some Mickeys and a 2 step.

it takes alot of work to get a manual trans and drag radials too work together.

I've never heard of a 2-step limiter,does that have to do with your rpm when your launching?Also when I do get the car to start hooking,I'm going to need to put some good axles into the car as i've been reading alot of people breaking stock axles,is this true?And if so what is recommended?
