bore it over to a 408!!! then drop it in a fox. say hi to 10s with the right heads and intake

not much if you put it in the fox i believe they both run on a similar computer system... it might just be a switch of the ECU and just beefing up the suspension... also they might even pre make the motor mounts for that kinda swap... this is a question that belongs in our foxbody section... though seeing as you had interest in putting it in your v6 i can understand why its here...

Keep the six as your all day great milage and make the windsor your track/race car

Put it in the fox it would be a mechanics and a fabricators nightmare to get it to work in the v6.

thats what i was thinking cuz the bronco had balls and i know in a fox body its gona hall ass but will the rear end and tranny match the windsor cuz the bronco as an auto and i want a manual..

what kinda tranny does the bronco have what year is it?

[shiftyV6]

83 i believe, give or take a year its carbd if that helps and its a 4x4

[itschristorres8]

well the tranny deffinitly wont work with it. im sure they have a differnt bell housing you could hook up...maybe a C4 tranny
and if you bore that sucker out to a 383 or 408 you'll deffinitly at least be in the mid low 11s with it in a fox depending how you keep the top end

how much do yall think a rebuilt c6 would cost.. and as for the engine i was goin to bore and stroke it with duel 4 barrel carbs and im sure ill think of all kinds of other stuff would a supercharger work with that kinda set up im not to sure on what set ups are good for carbd motors

[Onemanzu]

Ford Performance Solutions

[Onemanzu]

thanks man btw happy turkey day to all

[Juggalo_X]

if i wasnt Canadian id be off work today but my turkey day has long since passed.

[shiftyV6]

what about supercharging it?? or would i have to go with a diff. set up

[Onemanzu]

you could do that... they have them on the f.p.s site but...

"FPS can fulfill any power adder requirement, whether you need nitrous, superchargers or turbos; FPS is your full service solution.

Call us for your specific application. We have amazing blow out deals and will beat any advertised priced."

so yea might wanna get on the phone with them tomorrow or something

[shiftyV6]

for sure i can tell this is goin to be fun project but i think the 1st things to do is getting the fox body and rebuilding the motor and getting the carbs then ill really research power adders

[Onemanzu]

no no no the first thing you need to do is rob a bank ...

then look for a solid fox body... don't forget your suspension and you might wanna look into some sub frame connectors...

and the rear end might need an oil change or gear change

[shiftyV6]

i know it aint gonna be cheap... this is what i figure and im prolly completly wrong with these prices but i figured around 2500 for the fox body maybe even less, no idea on the strocker kit maybe 3 g's or so and the carbs prolly 500 hundred a piece not to mention all the little problems that ill prolly run into but its still will be a fun project somethings i can do myself and others i've got a good mechanic that'll do it for cheap... btw what's the diff. between a fox body and a solid fox body

[Onemanzu]

fox - 1k no engine
engine - 2k for stroker ... machine work is about a grand tops! Ford Performance Solutions

for your carb idea im not really finding and intake that will fit the carbs but maybe im just going nuts ...
