    Anyone know anyone who has built a Modular Foxbody???

    Hey, I got the procharged 90 GT and recently bought an 03 Cobra block for my 2002 GT and now I am throwing around the idea of making it a modular car. I was wanting to know, if anyone on her has done the wiring for one and what all that they have used? Thank you

    This is a hard decision, and its hard due to the fact I am not sure what the labor costs are gonna be to do the switch. What headers would fit in the fox for a 2v setup?

    Yes.

    Search the Modular swap forum on Modularfords.com
    It's not too difficult.
    Engine harness from the Detail Zone is the easiest and not too expensive, uses a factory modular computer, then do SCT tuning.
    My brother used BBK '03-04 Cobra headers in his '86 and just had the clearance the #7 (or maybe 8) primary tube.
    Good luck, its a good swap.

    O boy... I love the 4v, iv also fell for the TorkTech TVS system. I will have to give them a call and see if they make the TVS for the 4v setup and not just the 2v

    Iv done alot of research and I know hardly anyone knows about TorkTech but they use a Magnuson TVS 1900 S/C and their kit seems to be very well made. Their site is TorkTech.com

    Thanks guys, he did it all except tuning.
    He and my dad actually painted it in our garage his senior year in HS, it was my car and dark blue with me in HS.
    Shelby guys are having great results with the TVS Eatons, but I think they are the 2300 and I haven't paid attention, can the '03-04 Cobra guys bolt on a TVS?
    Unless its significantly cheaper, I'd do a KB or Whipple, that is my brother's plan. He doesn't like my car being faster so he better do it soon :)
