Tony, If you can find them cheap enough....have a look at the intake manifolds from a DB9 V12 (DBS version is the best) they're a good upgrade and not as wide as the DB7 intake, while also putting the throttle bodies further forward, angled down and outwards slightly. Keep up the killer content!!!
@StayTunedTA Hey Tony, ride tech came out with a sla front suspension for the foxbody. You can modify the shock towers . It gets ride off the struts . And use a tubular k member. Plus you can run s550 big brakes or cobra ones. It's $$ but probably worth it.
If i remember correctly, that engine is derived from 2 taurus 3.0s put together. Also, the Maximum motorsports manual brake kit is great for these cars and doesn't feel bad to drive on the street or track. And a Maximum k-member would probably help alot with header clearance and space to build mounts etc
Maximun Motorsports parts are the best out there for the '80's-2000's Mustangs. Had some their parts on my 1990 GT and they completely transformed the car. Handled like it was on rails and I just had their basic street setup. Wish I'd kept the car and kept going with the build, I didn't have the tubular k-member & control arms or any of their rear suspension parts on it so it could have been even better...
@@TireSlayer55 Maximum makes alot of great stuff! I've got their rear upper arms and bushings and panhard bar on my drift car. And the manual brake kit on our 24 hours of lemons build.
Two Duratec 3.0's, yes. Although it's a bit more complex than that (a lot of bespoke engineering went into this 5.9 litre). But some things are basically off the shelf parts, like the front timing cover and balancer.
I have essentially the entire front half of the MM max grip box and IRS in my fox. Top quality parts. The only thing I’d say that could be better is the Griggs Racing front end because the SLA setup would let them cut some of the strut tower away to make room for this monster. The downside is it’s painfully expensive.
The last 4-5 minutes of this are 100% hilarious. You can feel the "omg how are we gonna do this" without it being said. Absolutely love it guys. You're killing it as always.
One thing to keep in mind with this is those motors are based on a V6. They still use the V6 oilpump. Change the oil pump out for a high volume, even stock these things would spin more bearings than a Skidpan. No bs
I am definitely impressed you found an engine big enough to not fit in a fox body. That is kind of hard to do actually! I love the uncommon projects you do. Keep it up!
Soo friggin pumped about this project guys and can't wait to see this entire build. Thank you for sharing, everyone keep yourselves and love ones safe and healthy and remember to SMILE 😊
@@StayTunedTA man that motor would be killer in a 63 Lincoln four-door with the suicide doors, and some 22 or 24 inch wire Dayton on it and airbags. You never expect that sound from that big of a car
Would be really cool to see ITBs on this thing but also you can delete the strut towers with Ridetechs SLA front suspension. Might be something to look into, to save room.
I love the off the wall builds. This is the cool shit I always hope to find on Marketplace because I don't have the shop space to pull these off. Glad we can live vicariously through your builds.
One of coolest, best conditioned rollers I've ever seen. The seats, motor, and trans are all things that can get replaced anyway. And no pesky harnesses and cables in the way. Awesome find!
This build is going to be so entertaining. I can’t wait to hear it! I hope you keep the 5.0 emblems on it 😂 I really like how you start these episodes by showing us the whole buying process. I kinda enjoy that part myself when starting a project. I love scoring a cool motorcycle on the cheap!
30 seconds into the episode, and I know I'm gonna love it! Always loved your appearances in roadkill! Favorite new channel! Let's go boys! Love how you go against the grain. Would love to see some more crossovers with lz, or jimmy. Could take or leave tj. Lol just like giving him a hard time. Another cool one would be a race between your s10 and tommyfyeahs gtr!
If I remember correctly, the 6.0 V12 vantage engine was essentially two Taurus 3.0 Duratec engines joined together. So this build is super exciting and interesting to me.
My father always complains that the Cable TV auto shows he watches are all boring bolt on stuff. Showed him these videos and he was overjoyed. Keep up the awesome videos and I'm sure the channel will grow quickly.
Will continue watchin. I really appreciate how real life the whole process is no gimmicks (Still love ya VGG) no production company...it's good talent on camera having a good time and it shows. Keep up the good work.
I love Fox Bodies and I love the V12 plan. Custom headers, like y'all said, will be needed and maybe ditch the dual intake manifolds for some ITB's down the middle with a cowl induction hood for hood clearance. Rear mounted radiator or ditch the front bumper support. Very excited for this build and keep up the great work boys! ❤
Really appreciate you guys openly discussing the cost of the projects. Keeps it realistic and makes the projects more relatable. Keep up the killar work!!
Hell ya! Saw that silhouette in the thumbnail, recognized the fastback 5.0, can't wait to see how this all turns out. Love me some fox body. edit for: the view of that enormous engine hanging over that little engine bay had me cracking up.
Hello. I am a car enthusiast from Malta and love your videos man! If you don't mind accepting a tip: The way I see this being done time efficiently and cost effectively is to cut everything from the windshield forwards, mock the engine in place on stands and then custom build a tube chassis & exhaust manifolds (headers if you please) around the engine/motor once you position it where you want it to be & then fit steering column & rack and everything around it. 100% custom.
You might have to cut the firewall & transmission tunnel ro have engine fitting as backwards & low as possible as well as I would suggest going dry 'sump lubrication' and this way having a completely flat 'oil pan' would facilitate the mounting of steering rack & other components. This build could make an insane drift missile or drag weapon adding twin-turbos to the mix!
Tony I don't know how you do it, but you have the best ideas for projects. Literally every time you come out with a new build I'm like holy shit this is a great idea.
The fox body is nice , I was thinking a old LTD 2 door would have been a cool ride to put that in. But that thang aught to be nuts when you get it running and driving.👍
I just picked up a foxbody for my channel and ive been trying to cook up an interesting swap idea but this is WILD!! cant wait to see this thing ripping!!
Solid axle gasser to get rid of those huge shock towers. Don’t forget the biggest firewall notch so you can get the weight moved back. Fits like an old glove.
I’m watching this alone but I genuinely got up out of my seat laughing and applauding when the V12 was sitting there squeezed into the fox body engine bay. It looks gloriously ridiculous. Can’t wait to see and hear it running!
Finally the Aston motor returns! You gotta reconsider on the chassis though. I just saw a Panoz Roadster for sale up here in the Northwest on Marketplace. It’s all SN95 Mustang running gear underneath. It’d be perfect. Think about it… 😂
I’ve seen so many swaps in these foxbodys . Coyote, 351, LS and Godzilla motors but a V12 in the lightest American muscle car is gonna be insane. That V12 is huge I bet it’s gonna be super tight getting it in. I’m very excited to see part 2 on this project. Can’t wait. Great content 👍
I dig this project, I’m glad you are keeping a Ford motor in a Ford. I’m a fan of the 94-98 SN95 cars, which are the same chassis with a sleeker body. To me, that would have been a more “American Aston”-looking car. Regardless, this is going to be so cool.
Wish you would have gone with the Lincoln Mark Vll. I had an 1988 Mark Vll in high school with the HO 5.0. Dark silver with grey leather interior would have been perfect for that V12.
My first car was an 86 Mercury Cougar XR7. It was 10 years old by the time I got my hands on it but that thing handled like a dream. Glad gas was so cheap in the 90’s because it drank gas like your drunk uncle at the family picnic.
Ngl when I saw the fox I teared up have always wanted one my dad had one he bought off the lot back in 87. Ended up getting stolen and stripped I had always dreamed as a kid thinking that's my car someday. Can't wait to see this one revived!
Hydroboost off of 96-04 Mustang and a tubular K member with Mod motor mounts will probably be a big step forward to helping everything fit. (if you want to keep power brakes and steering.)
also the foxes originally had an Inline 6 so there should be plenty of room! I wanted to 2j swap mine for years but the cost of them got insane.. Now I keep eyeing the Atlas 4200 motors since artec makes that nice manifold now..
I'm afraid my choice of wagon has to be the 59 Chev ! It's very cool . The early Rambler wagon with the caravan is realy neat. A bit of wood. .. choice Cheers from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Wilwood 3 pedal box. Has the masters mounted off the pedals themselves for brake and clutch. Might have to modify the firewall a bit but it'll give you a lot of room in the bay
That is one hell of a massive motor for that mustang. I would have picked the turbocouope. It was almost the same price but at least it was a complete car. You got a lot of work ahead of you to slip that thing in there. It will be sweet when its done
You could do away with the shock towers with Ridetech’s new front suspension for the fox chassis. Looks like you may need that room. Super excited to follow this build!
I had a 91 Thunderbird Super Coupe with the 3.8l V6 Supercharged. I loved that car, the drive train was great, the body rusted off the car. It was a Steve Colletti built and tuned car, was the first car I ever had tuned and dyno'd, 298 whp 414 ft lbs, that was in 1999, with bolt on's, port work, custom exhaust, and ecm tuning. RIP ThunderTurd, I wish I didn't hit a guard rail doing 60 avoiding a deer. Edit: What I mean to say is maybe maybe a Thunderbird or Lincoln Conti something mid to early 90's Ford will have a longer nose and bigger engine bay.
I've been thinking about those headers. You could cut them all apart and just use all those bends like a header kit, even the three into two or six into two lol. Love the show! I've been watching since the start.
I’m pumped to see this episode. My first car was pretty much that car 90 LX, 5.0, 5 speed, maroon, leather interior. I put H&R springs and a bunch of suspension stuff under it and a Ford racing clutch in my driveway. Sold it in 03 with 75k miles on it. That car reminds me a lot of it and I can’t wait to hear that V12
Oh man... tunnel ram style Intake with a front LS style throttle body. Custom headers, QA1 k-member. That thing will be sweet as hell. Love the random combos. Fantastic!
This is a super cool build! something that really makes it for me is that the original P-51 Mustang, the plane the car is named after, had a Rolls Royce British Merlin v12! Not sure if anyone made that connection but that makes me super stoked for this build!
Love your show, like the fact that you still mention the roadkill guys too, hope you do something with a fox thunderbird in the future, great show Tony, good luck to you guys.
This reminds me of working on our buddies 90s 300ZX Twin Turbo. Cramped as all hell and a pain in the ass to work on, especially if you wanna mess with the turbo's. This is gonna be an awesome project!
Might hafta make a true gt by extending front clip a foot. Love yalls enthusiasm way to hook barb into the project with the mustang pick lol Thanks for sharing your talent and adventures.
I would have dropped the V12 in a later 5th generation Mustang. The body shape looks more like a Aston Martin. But this is also cool. Vanilla Ice style 🛠😎
I have an 87 turbo coupe and if you are wanting to put a v12 in it be prepared to completely redo the front end. Replace the shock towers and all that stuff with mustang 2. It barely fits the turbo side along with the brake setup, lol. Same for the fox mustang I would assume.
I was literally looking at the roller you picked up on marketplace 😂 I’m only 20 minutes from it. Then sat on it and it was gone. I’m happy you got it though, it’s a cool build. Can’t wait to hear that.
As someone who owned an 86 tbird back in the day I would have loved to see you pick up the sc. But still looking forward to see you turn the mustang into a beast
These guys are the absolute best !! Love this team !! Tony having his own show is the only way to showcase radical but somewhat budget friendly rides !!!
Griggs SLA would be so sick on this project, especially to fit that gigantic engine. Maybe new exhaust (manifolds) packaging is similar cost to say...idk..custom turbo manifolds? Sry ideas just keep jumping at me, my pockets aren't that deep either...an NA homebuilt/fit Aston V12 Fox is a killer idea! Can't wait to see what happens next! ❤
I do like the fox body platform, however I can see the Aston Martin V12 in the Lincoln mark viii, it had independent suspension for all four wheels; at the time, the only other rear-wheel drive American cars to do so (alongside the Thunderbird and Cougar) were the Chevrolet Corvette and Dodge Viper , still it is gonna be a great build.
You already know I’m excited. I think 93 prelude seats fit right in. That’s what I’ve been told. the preludes have great buckets. Idk tony knows me than me anyhow
You definitely never do the builds that everybody has done 1000 times. That's why I love this show.
As he swaps a fox body with the most run of the mill v12, who hasn’t done this swap?
Except for LS in a Porsche
Put your teenis away
Imagine a person on the RUclipss fixing and customizing a wrecked McLaren or any other supercar? That would be extremely rare!😅
@@dakotadennett6979I’ve never seen this swap in a fox🤷♂️

Vortec 4200 engines take a bit of finesse because of the height. We had to lower the K member 3/4"
@@alexanderjones6383damn I’ve always thought the 4.2 is the most underrated engine and in a fox body is wild af
Thanks to Keith for being on camera. its nice to see the project right from the beginning including the sale.

Would be really cool to see ITBs on this thing but also you can delete the strut towers with Ridetechs SLA front suspension. Might be something to look into, to save room.

You definitely need to do a 5 lug conversion. The wheel selection is so much better!
No 4 lug thug huh?
The Ford Four stud pattern’s got some good wheel choices, it’s a stud pattern shared with Rootes Group , Peugeot and a few other manufacturers.
I love weird combos, this should be awesome!
Same! thanks for watching!

Right on! Was hoping to see this swapped into a Lincoln Mark VII, but I can get on board with this.
Eliminate the shock towers, i believe ridetech and a few others have a kit. You will need a tubular k member as well. That will get you some room.
The fox body is nice , I was thinking a old LTD 2 door would have been a cool ride to put that in. But that thang aught to be nuts when you get it running and driving.👍

Swap…only thing not done is a foxbody truck puller. So guess I’ll await seeing that video.
Gen 5 Viper v10 swap
Mclaren TT v8 swap
RB30
BMW S65 v8
BMW S85 v10
4g63 full AWD drive train swap
Sti drivetrain
Swap a 2.3 ecoboost out of a new gen mustang
Solid axle gasser to get rid of those huge shock towers. Don’t forget the biggest firewall notch so you can get the weight moved back. Fits like an old glove.
This is the best idea ever

Love the concept!!
Understandable if this doesn't shake out, just evaluate & pivot, if necessary. Just two cool builds, fox & v12
Finally the Aston motor returns! You gotta reconsider on the chassis though. I just saw a Panoz Roadster for sale up here in the Northwest on Marketplace. It’s all SN95 Mustang running gear underneath. It’d be perfect. Think about it… 😂

Out of all the exciting projects you've had on this channel, this has to be the one I'm most excited about so far.

I had an '86 Tubo Coupe. Loved it!
It looks like another unmissable series, looking forward to it. 👍👍👍

Saw the wheels and knew instantly what it was, great choice of car
If it does not already have them, subframe connectors are a must! I am very intrigued. This looks like a very tall order to fill. Will be watching.

Im glad you went with the foxbody over ripping apart that really nice turbo coupe
Is gonna be sick, I don't know it it would fit but a 12 to 1 exhaust would be the cherry on top
Dual V6 install in a Mustang! Most people just do twin turbos! Tony is most likely the 1st
You guys are nutz. I think it's pretty awesome. But a v12 fox body is kinda nutz
Oh man... tunnel ram style Intake with a front LS style throttle body. Custom headers, QA1 k-member. That thing will be sweet as hell. Love the random combos. Fantastic!

i always wanted to do a duratec fox but this really kicks that idea up a few notches
Man that looks like alot of weight over the front axle...it makes an 80s audi look like it has 50/50 weight distribution lol. You're a mad scientist!😄
As someone who owned an 86 tbird back in the day I would have loved to see you pick up the sc. But still looking forward to see you turn the mustang into a beast
These guys are the absolute best !! Love this team !! Tony having his own show is the only way to showcase radical but somewhat budget friendly rides !!!
Love the old fox bodies. Was my first car. This thing is going to be sick when you finish.
Griggs SLA would be so sick on this project, especially to fit that gigantic engine. Maybe new exhaust (manifolds) packaging is similar cost to say...idk..custom turbo manifolds? Sry ideas just keep jumping at me, my pockets aren't that deep either...an NA homebuilt/fit Aston V12 Fox is a killer idea! Can't wait to see what happens next! ❤
Good Luck!
Thats a lotta mootz in that little fox body 😂 can't wait for the next episode!
Dang Tony, you guys have put together one crazy project and I love every second of it, can’t wait to see the next episode!
Tony buy a delete kit for the shock towers and you will have a lot of room. Love everything you do from another PA guy living in Mn
Thanks! Might get a Griggs kit going, used their stuff on our SN95 and it was great!
that is... bananas!
I do like the fox body platform, however I can see the Aston Martin V12 in the Lincoln mark viii, it had independent suspension for all four wheels; at the time, the only other rear-wheel drive American cars to do so (alongside the Thunderbird and Cougar) were the Chevrolet Corvette and Dodge Viper , still it is gonna be a great build.
You already know I’m excited. I think 93 prelude seats fit right in. That’s what I’ve been told. the preludes have great buckets. Idk tony knows me than me anyhow
