Love the car, wouldnt change anything on it!!!!!
Thank you so much for watching! I agree, this Fox is great exactly as it sits!
Those old FMUs throw a nice fuel shot out the pipes.Love it.Sweet car.
@@BrotherTom hello Brother Tom, I have an awesome Foxbody for you to see. In my opinion, the best Foxbody out there. Email me at jonesb162@yahoo.com to inquire about pictures.
Audience, We guys love our Fox's, and the image. Great Job!!!
Car is absoulutley perfect
Great content Tom. Evan's ride is bad ass.
Thanks, Mario! You're next haha!
Sweet notch - reminds me a lot of my old ‘87 back in high school when I built very similar GT40 H/I and F-303 plus an old Vortech A trim HO kit. So much fun!
Well this is cool, Evan's car is cool as hell, glad to see you're doing this channel!!
Thank you for checking it out! Hoping to get a few more videos done before the weather turns over here. Thanks again!
@@BrotherTom im right down the street from you lets do it!!
Small world haha. If you have Instagram DM me (@brothertom)! Otherwise swing by sometime! Usually home on the weekends!
@@BrotherTom ask mario i don't have any social media lol,but we can set something up for this weekend it's supposed to be nice out,mario was talking about cruising around anyways
Joe I got the camera ready if you guys want to stop by this weekend! A cruise sounds like a great idea too. Weather is going to be nice!
Big fan in the notchbacks, clean one bro!
Putting my house on the market this spring. My next house has to have a 2 car garage. Right now I don’t even have a driveway. City living is coming to a end! Then comes a notchback 😁
Hell yeah! I just moved last year and finally got my attached 2 car heated garage. Now my fox hibernates at home haha. Thank you for watching!
NEVER paint this car. I LOVE the patina, looks so rad.
I agree!
Awesome video Tom and while I don’t know shyt about specs I love driving them! Love Evan’s ride! Much love to you and Evan. Until we meet again!
Thanks, Rado! Hey man, check out my other video. The one with my car on the thumbnail. You and your vert are in it!
Every foxbody mustang should have halo headrests if you modify anything else..they're so sweet.
So funny im randomly watching this video and see my Dad's old Model A at the end 😂 small world!
I know I’m not the only one who prefers the notch vs the hatch. This is one beautiful design from the 80s and those old 302s and 351s sound really good.
Another gorgeous notch!!!! You gotta admire all the things he did to that car. Man, that's one badass machine!
I agree! And he's finishing up a coyote swapped 85 Notch now too. Hope to get a video on that soon.
I love that natural satin look on the exterior
Sweet ride Evan!!!!!!!!!!
What's up fellas!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching, Lee! Hope to have some more videos up soon!
Awesome Fox body.
Another sweet ride, tastefully done and tidy looking.
One day I'll be in the Supercharger Fox. Loved the back ground story on the car. You know I love the GT40 look. Another great video Tom!
FoxBody repair kit! 🤣
He's had so many fox bodies over the years he knows what's up haha
Looks and sounds awesome except for the cowl hood. I like the clean look.
Thank you for watching! Yeah, he's had a few different hoods on the car so this probably won't be the last.
It's not a foxbody if it doesnt have a cowl hood lol
@@BrotherTomà no
Those GT40 intakes look so cool.
I agree 100%
I am just thinking of mine 5, 5.0 mustang that I’ve had owned throughout my life I love them so much
if I could on one today I’ll buy one. Beautiful car😍
They are very fun cars! Thank you very much for watching.
@@BrotherTom I remembered a trick with my 5.0.
1 Turn the car on
2 pull the E brakes
3 turn on the blinkers
4 pump the brakes while shifting from neutral and reverse back-and-forth very fast.
(The affect) all your rear lights will go crazy looks cool
Great video Tom! Love this SSP been following him on IG for a while. Can't wait to see the video on his next project that car is going to be KILLER. Keep it up!!!
Thank you very much for watching! Yeah, this new project car is going to be really nice! Can't wait to feature it when it's all done.
Nice car love how he didnt dump a shit load of money into it and still go the same result as someone who would have put alot into theirs
We used to call the GT-40 intake tubes 'pasta elbows' when we would blow the intakes apart from nitrous backfires.
Great car. Nicely done.
Thank you for watching!
Hey brother 2👍 up. I love the detail in the vids.... Amazing machine by the way. I fall in love with my SN95 the more I get "Inspired", there a nothing like doing your own builds. Thanx for Sharing....
Thank you very much for watching! Those SN95's are really growing on me lately. I will have a feature video with a coyote swapped, supercharged SN once we head into Spring this year so keep an eye out!
Don’t even own a Ford but love the cars. 🙌
Hell yeah! I love anything fast...just can't afford to own them all haha. Thank you very much for watching! Going to check out your channel and sub!
Just finding your channel. 🤘🤘🤘 on brother. I'm a huge fox body fan and owner of 22 of them since the 80s
I think you and Evan have a lot in common haha. He’s had about that many too! Thanks for watching!
@@BrotherTom haha yes sir. I'm building my 93 #coupty up. I have a built 331 I'm my latest one and I'm getting a dart shp block with billet main caps 351w 427w. I'll probably do a full build on pulling the 331 and installing the 427w etc
Good clean mustang, not over done, and seems very streetable.
Nice supercharged FoxBody!
Good job, another awesome fox
I have a 1993 SSP that was never put in service and all original. One of the last one made. Jim
I would LOVE to see that!
Awesome 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you very much for watching and commenting!
Nice, clean car. Congrats.
Good morning.. sipping coffee watch some car vid's and this popped up i seen you guys taking a ride on 83 ... cool to see someone on youtube in my area i live in lombard ! Beautiful car man my brother in law lives in Villa Park... we are both car guys i have a 94 Formula and he has a 85 Foxbody he is currently working on .. be cool to see you guys at a car meet or something. We usually go to Lombard car show in the summers. Be cool to meet or something and talk shop !
Small world! Thank you for watching and commenting. We’re actually headed to a show today at Mustang Restoration Inc in Dundee. Show starts at 8 and goes to 3. Message me on Instagram (@brothertom) too and maybe we can meet up at a show sometime 👍🏻
Sweet Notch, been debating on supercharging mine. Just don’t want to start breaking parts as it starts and runs every time I turn the key.
Beautiful car congratulations.....I just picked up a 88 coupe solid 5speed ...I currently own 1990 GT fox body congrats again man
I hope to add a notch to my garage someday! Thank you for watching and commenting.
Makes me miss my 88 lx hatch
Great car nice vid just dubbed. Please bring it back
Love it! Owned many...
Jesus that sounds beautiful
Beautiful
Awesome video Tom, Evan still can’t shift!!!
Haha...Thanks for watching, brother! You have to check out my next video. Coming very soon!
Awesome car does look like the pedal is grabbing towards the top
Very nice ride!
Loved it
Nice coupe awesome build!
this video make me regret selling my blue notch, I had a very similar set up without boost... now I have the itch to find another.
Never too late to get back in the game! I picked mine up 3 years ago after 13 years of 'adulting' haha. Thank you for watching!
Sick car... id never paint it
I agree! Thank you for watching and commenting.
Beautiful car
All that car needs are some saleen wheels, but that just my opinion. Beautiful machine.
Yeah I think each fox looks good on certain rims and this car has had a few sets already. Thank you very much for watching.
Very cool car 👍
Thank you so much! Hope to have more videos soon.
Swap on a FatFoxx TFI relocation kit and your days of worrying over module failures will be behind you !
Tell Ray at FF that SVTSkip sent ya ;)
N I C E !!!!!!
Thank you for watching!
So cool love it
That fmu works great on low boost
Yeah it’s working out great for him so far. Thank you for watching 👍🏻
great setup , my question is did u change the disks in the FMU for the 24lb injectors? wouldnt 18lbs
be enough? thanks
Should definitely get a good tuner to tune the car... they could definitely add in some extra power
Try running some redline MT fluid in that transmission. Might make the shift feel smoother. My Evo loved the new fluid. About to put it in my other car as well.
Great idea. I was told the older Tremec 3550 and TKO have a 'notchy' feel to them. Compared to my Tremec T5 it is definitely noticeable. Thank you for watching!
i’d love to see the car in black
If I remember right Vortech recommends removing it with injectors over 24 pounds.
Ope, that's good old Fenton High School at 9:20, LMAO!!
Haha..yep good eye! Thank you for watching!
FMU is fine until you get into higher boost. My Foxbody has a Vortech V1 Intercooled System at 10 PSI and the FMU was screwing everything up.
My tuner did the install on my V3 and he refused to put the FMU on mine, but I have 60lb injectors so I bet that's why. Thank you for watching!
@@BrotherTom I'm at 42lb injectors. I'm changing the top end and adding meth injection as well. Hoping to break 500rwhp.
@@brianboyle3998 hell yeah! I need to check out that meth injection myself. Mine did 432whp with a pretty conservative tune. I'm still on a stock block and I wanted to keep it fun, but not split the block fun haha!
@@BrotherTom I bought the car at 492rwhp on stock block, e cam, and Edelbrock top end. I'm switching to TrickFlow 205 11r c03 heads with a CPR intake and Elbow intake. I'm not a racer, I just love having that "goose" ability and knowing it's there. My tuner recommended the meth and I'm guessing I'll be at 550+rwhp when he's done with it. Look him up: Jim Riskovsky, Turbo Connection Racing. He has video's on the site.
@@brianboyle3998 That's great power and nothing sounds like the V1! My V3 is the heritage, which is kind of close. I'll definitely check out your tuner's channel. Your setup sounds like a good combination for your HP goals!
I'm a few months away from getting one folks
Lol believe it or not I daily my 88 5.0l
That's awesome! I had a 92 LX 5.0 I drove daily for about 8 years. Really fun in Chicago winters haha.
Daily my 89 gt
1987-93 were basically the same,fox body!,I like these the best out of all the other fox bodys.....
My 93 hatch was originally that color blue but someone thought it would be better red it now has a black wrap cant stand red
Sounds like it has gear to gear timing like my uncle's Limited Late Model race car
Did he swap out the airbag wheel for an 88-89 wheel or did the SSP’s not come with driver airbag?
You are absolutely correct he swapped out the airbag wheel for the non airbag, adjustable 88-89 wheel. Good eye 👍🏻
Hello, subbed for more fox vids, im new to foxes, why does he have spare tfi? Do they go bad? What are symptoms of tfi hoin bad? Thx
You sound like Conan O’brien btw
The TFI is notorious for going bad when they get too hot and usually while you're driving. The car will literally just shut off. They've left many people stranded. Some people relocate them to get away from the engine heat. Hope that helps!Thank you for watching!
And I wish I had Conan's money haha! Thanks!
Love it
I like the Mustangs in the Fox generation. The SSP police versions are hard to find. The 5.0L Windsor is an awesome motor, especially when upgraded. What I want to know, because I have a '89 Crown Victoria (with 40 series Flowmasters), although it too has a 5.0, is it the same exact engine as the Mustang GT, just simply detuned?
Thank you so much for watching! I'd have to do more research, but I know for sure the 5.0L HO motor and the 5.0 differences are Firing Order, Heads and Cam. The HO has the 351 firiing order, different heads and roller cam.
@@BrotherTom I do know the HO version has higher power (225 vs 150) and the same torque as the 351W the police Vics had. One thing I do find strange is the HO had the gray engine piece face the opposite direction, to the right rather than the left seen in the non-HO. But I think both are essentially the same.
Ahhhhh u gotta show the a in back ground
I was wondering what kind of headers he has?
BBK 1-5/8 shorty headers
@@BrotherTom after all these mods that you put in your fox body. All these combinations, does your Stang run good as a decent daily driver? Or do you have any problems?
@@oscarvillarreal8951 My car runs better now than it did when it was 100% stock. Now it is not a daily driver, but I've gone on 2 hour+ drives and never had an issue at all. Just drinks more gas!
@@BrotherTom that's great to hear 💪🙌! Because the mods that you have in your car are almost the same things I want to put in my car. The only difference is that I want long tube headers. Do you put regular gas?
@@oscarvillarreal8951 yes I run premium pump gas. Not interested in E85 at this point.
Hit me up when it's for sale.
What are the size and specs of those wheels? I have those same wheels in 17" on my 1990 LX without a lip. I want that lip
18x9 up front and 18x10 in the rear. They are from American Muscle.
Where's the green one?
If you know how to use the FMU properly it works , this car might might 5 Lbs and the FMU is more then fine on this fox. Also Paint the the dam car
Evan wants that camera turned off in the worst way.
dude reminds me of billy bob thorton
SSP=Special Service Package
#coupty FTW
How wide are the front n back rims?
Only way to have a fox body is 5spd and supercharged
Agreed! Thank you for watching!
Why is he shifting it so poorly? Let it eat! Seems like it should be a bit quicker 🤷🏼♂️ but it sounds good atleast.
I agree...let it eat! But it's a stock clutch lol. The video does make everything seem a bit slower. Car moves pretty good for an HCI with a little boost! Thank you for watching!
thats jersey?
No, we're in Illinois. Thank you for watching!
Nice car! Wat cam
Thank you for watching! This car has a Ford Motorsport E cam. I love the letter cam chop too!
@@BrotherTom yes sir I had a e cam on my 85 gt it really woke up the car.
@@arturo5819 first car I bought with my own money was an 85 gt, 5 spd with gray cloth interior! That was back in 1995 right after high school and I still love the 4 eyes.
@@BrotherTom really that's what I had and about the same Time! I was in high school but already had a 83 convertible. Mine was white with grey interior
The way this guy works a clutch, maybe he should back to an auto. LOL ......Love the car though, very cool.
Haha...thank you very much for watching! I'll have more videos as soon as this stupid covid thing calms down.
@@BrotherTom All good man, I was just busting your chops! Always love seeing cool foxes. They're what we all built and raced when I was younger. Cheers!
I could honestly give a rats ass that it was a road pirates car.
For sale? 😍
PRICE?
Thank you for watching. Unfortunately, this car is not for sale.
That intake setups killing the power
Yeah, it was kind of a period correct build. I love the look of the tubular GT40, but we definitely know they are not the best flowing. Thank you for watching!
@@BrotherTom first time watching lol gonna subscribe
Awesome thank you! You're going to really like the next video coming this week. 800rwhp notch!
@@BrotherTom me and my dad have a 87lx with a 393w. Well its a 393 stroker but it's 60over rather then 30over.
Now THAT I'd like to see! If you're on Instagram look me up. @brothertom
isn that a procharger
Nope that is a Vortech Supercharger. Thank you very much for watching!
No. No it is not.
@@VortechSuperchargers Thanks guys! Have a lot more PoweredByVortech videos coming this year!
@@VortechSuperchargers okay so it’s like a regular supercharger it’s just smaller and easier to mount like a procharger ig?
@@tylerwilkinson2712 Vortech, Paxton, and other similar brands are all Centrifugal Superchargers. They may share a common design appearance, but are not the same.
These people can never shift 🤣🤣🤣
Camera shy 🤣
Love Brother Tom, even if he dors look like Hunter Biden.
Haha thank you!
@@BrotherTom my pleasure
Plz never paint this car bro plz
Rims anit working.
