[QUOTE="ratio411, post: 1105686, member: 18009"] Without going into a long list of details: The entire front suspension is from a 93 GT. Monster 22lb sway bar and all. New poly bushings, new stock replacement coil springs. The original steering rack took all day to turn lock to lock... the 93 GT rack makes it turn like a go-kart. :) Out back are replacement coils, Monroe shocks, and BMR tubular uppers and lowers. Again, every bushing was replaced with poly. I built the 91 GT 8.8" with 4.10s on this car too, and 'loaned' my son my Moser girdle. The only thing missing from the rear is the sway bar. The huge front sway bar eventually tore the driver's side mount off the front frame rail. Probably due to launches like the one in the pic. After some study, we found that the mount is attached to the frame rail MUCH better on Mustangs than the Fairmont..... considering the original sway bar on the car wasn't much thicker in diameter than a pencil. LMAO! The car was dyno'd when it was still an AOD with 2.73 gears, and the engine only had Mac shorties, OR-x, and Exploder intake/TB. Nothing else. It pulled 230 at the wheels, ran pig rich, and I don't recall the exact torque, but I think it was around 270. Since then the car has the new upper, 24# injectors, SN95 MAF, CAI, long tubes, true duals (no balance pipe), electric fan, and of course the T5 and 8.8"/4.10s. The rich condition is gone now, the car runs great, but surely would run better with a tune. [/QUOTE]
