Awesome build! I think The Smokin Tire needs to organize a trackday for people who have been featured on the one take to see how they do on the track :). Hint hint. Come on Matt we need some One Take on track battles happening. Could be a series in itself.
If everyone got GoPros and they maybe ran 3-4 different classes and kept track of lap times and points for the end... I would watch the fuck out of that.
what are you talking about, i grew up in so cal beaches my entire life (im 24), and everyone has always said this as a term of endearment. It is a very common phrase in any so cal beach town.
A 350 HP Fox Body is nothing to tale for granted. There's no nanny state controls on that thing. Our 90 GT 5 speed was hot for its day. It was fast already. Nice car.
Elizabeth Cherry They use the LS motor in mustangs because they are less expensive, more reliable, and more powerful than the coyote motor from the ford. Using a mopar would defeat the purpose. With any LS swap, there is a lot of information out there on how to retro fit parts and pull off a clean swap, since it has all been done with the LS. Not so much with a Dodge. A Chrysler V10 would be awesome in a mustang though lol.
Guy Woolford i like it when people are into their cars. much better to watch than the guys who buy a new car and get things bolted on cos its what the forums say
Both people have the same voice level. I would even say the passenger is easier to hear in this video. HOWEVER, sticking with a setup because it's convenient/versatile is short-selling yourself. Getting two mics for the people and separate mic for the car would make this SO MUCH BETTER. If I was the sound guy on this I would go to work!
I understand what you're getting at but if it's working is it really worth the time and effort and potentially botched videos to get a new setup right when this one is more than good enough in my opinion (and his)?
As a Mach 1 owner, I would have been happier to see a coyote or terminator engine, but kudos for doing something different and controversial and making it all work. Others will scream, but in the end it is about what works for you.
Different in what I've seen because while the LS family is wildly popular, I didn't know it was so lmfao commonly done to Mustangs. Did I explain and make enough excuses to avoid further laughing?
Nothing but love for the thoughts, and tons of work, that has gone into this car. Besides knowing his stuff, the owner seems really pleasant too. Great video to watch. Would be fun if te two of you would drive eachother's cars on a track, compare notes and talk about what works in each car aso. Would make one hell of a video i think :)
TheSmokingTire please do so Matt. Michael was great on his recent video for a cheap SVO build on the drive channel and will do well behind the camera again.
5.0s just have an iconic sound, growing up in the 90s when these cars were everywhere you could tell someone was getting on a mustang just from the sound without even seeing the car. Ls engines are great I've even done a couple swaps but it bothers me when people say it's cheap. It ends up being more expensive/or you spent tons of time fabricating instead of spending money. Only time it's cheaper is if it's half assed...
Why not get a Chevy? Fake ass! Only a piece of shit puts a ls1 in a Foxbody swap to coyote and represent what you drive! There is only one excuse if you buy that motor for a great price!
I didn't even watch the video; just wanted to comment. I am sick to death of the Chevy-on-Ford violence! I guess there just isn't another motor in the whole wide world other than an LS. Jesus H. Tap-Dancing Christ. Hope the thing dumps its guts all over the Angeles Crest.
This is the best one take so far! This one is going to be hard to beat lol. The owner knew his car inside out and actually knew what he was talking about. Loved how they were both into the convo. I was so into their convo, that I completely forgot about the dashcam lmao!
I had a '90 lx 5.0 with all the right go fast parts and I loved it but, being honest, a modern LS can put any pushrod 302 to shame. A more fair comparison is the coyote against an LS and even then GM will usually win. The fox body is a fun, light, simple, if crude, platform and is a better foundation for a serious motor than any third or fourth gen Camaro which were heavier, more flexible, and more likely to have things fall off than similar vintage Mustangs. So this review is the best of both worlds.
that where the 351 comes into play. dont know why people want to compare the LS to the 302 when its smaller displacement from the get go.. lot of ford engines out there OHV to OHC
another driver with a Valentine 1 awesome! it's so dope when car guys can get together and drive each other's cars for comparison... my 95 mustang with an IRS will be up for a one take soon...
I missed this one, but you mentioned it in the podcast with Thad so I went after this. Definitely a good solution to a blowed-up 302, and nice middle finger to the purists. Can't wait for your Fox Body to be properly sorted, and hopefully for the final one-take for it, Michael should be in the driver's seat so he can talk about it with you.
Behind ever corolla...there's a mustang waiting to pass. lol. Glad to see this guy got his car up and running. I'd love to try to keep up with him in a canyon in a 3rd gen camaro. lol
Nice to hear about the suspension upgrades and the IRS. I'm swapping a 03 Cobra IRS into my 87 foxbody Saleen clone. I live near Denver so I'm excited to take it out for a mountain drive when it's installed.🎉
____ IRS Mustang muscle = check! ( KNEW I'd seen one on here in addition to yours Matt! ) ____ Now, someone who's really committed to the chassis ( $$, or picked up a shell cheap to allow for reasonable financials ) needs to bring their 1990s - early 2000s Camaro / Pontiac with Heidts Pro-G High Power IRS installed with an "appropriate" drivetrain like that of a nasty Pontiac and sweetest-sounding Camaro you uploaded in the ~ last year... ____ Heidts Pro-G Hi-Po IRS ? ANYBODY OUT THERE!? ... Get it to Matt!!! ( been salivating for such a drive since the product's been on the market only to see it hasn't made the Camaro or Pontiacs here yet )

Same car with more tire, an LS2 or LS3 with a baby cam, and a little more gear, is exactly what I've been looking at building for about a year. Just waiting for a nice chassis to fall my way. Great car, great video.

Matt, you gotta turn the tables and let Michael review YOUR Mustang! That would be a really great One Take!!!
shaggyusm26 Great idea.
up
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Watch the end of the video.
Matt said he would let him drive, yes. But not necessarily drive it for a One Take video.
when OG car guys get together... you just sit back and try to understand! I feel smarter now.
Matt said " Homie"
Snoopy 😂😂😂😂😂😂
its a so cal thing my dude, everyone says it.
ghettodeffender We said that in the 80's lol. It's not a So Cal thing.
what are you talking about, i grew up in so cal beaches my entire life (im 24), and everyone has always said this as a term of endearment. It is a very common phrase in any so cal beach town.
ghettodeffender we use it in Chicago as well
this dude is cool as fuck, I can see him driving serious, paying attention, and rocking skills.
so sweet to hear the comparisons between the two cars
A 350 HP Fox Body is nothing to tale for granted. There's no nanny state controls on that thing. Our 90 GT 5 speed was hot for its day. It was fast already. Nice car.
Awesome car !! Props for doing all the work himself and loved hearing you guys car talk while driving well done Matt !!
Kudos to the dude pulling to the side in his Corolla. No one here in Houston would've done that.
Based on this setup this has to be an autox car, bet it would be a blast
Hey, Michael, I really dug your show with Corbin. Best of luck!
this is THE video where Matt and Passenger talk soo000ooo much about the specifics of the car
I've been waiting for you to review one of these!!
Man I need to move to Cali. No one in Illinois has road etiquette like that!
You haven't seen LA drivers on the freeway lol
The Ford boys must be going Crazy and swearng while the CHEVY are going"YEAH". LOL
You upload at perfect times for us insomniacs :)
i love this show
nice light switch dork
Oh yeah, I remember the light switch!
please make the video of him driving :) should be fun.
IS THAT A DO IT FOR DALE SHIRT I SEE ON MATT?! MMMMEEEEERRRRRIIIICCCCAAAAAAA!!!!
Im actually doing a ls1 in a 92 LX right now big cam big heads and intake 450 + to the tire yup
what cam he is running will tell alot about the way the power behaves and if they are just stock ls6 heads.
Where can I get IRS components for a fox? Any specific car to pull from and swap or is it strictly aftermarket? Saw a tbird irs? Yes? No? Idk
I love GT cars they are more fun for street driving.
For a second I thought this was an electric car
Time for Sloppyturbo ;)
Matt you need to find someone who has a Chevy 302.
personally if I was to put an engine from another company into a mustang, I think I would go with the Dodge hemi 6.1
Elizabeth Cherry They use the LS motor in mustangs because they are less expensive, more reliable, and more powerful than the coyote motor from the ford. Using a mopar would defeat the purpose.

Does he have a RUclips channel???
This guy makes a great episode, cause he knows so much about his car!
Guy Woolford i like it when people are into their cars. much better to watch than the guys who buy a new car and get things bolted on cos its what the forums say
Guy Woolford I like the fact that he engages I the conversation and didn't let Matt do all the talking.
DIY tuners know their cars inside out. Love it.
fuck, this is what happens when you take someone who knows what he's doing and has the capability to make it happen
PsychoCB7 Facts bro! I totally forgot about the dashcam because I was just so focused on their convo!
I like Michael. Good kind of crazy. Like his car.
Shrek is love Shrek is life
+Kryptonlte no Shrek is green
no Shrek is Shrek
Yeah this guy knows his stuff
+KryptonIte **TRiGGER WARNiNG**
I have the same car with an ls swap and twin turbos it's a drift build... On Forza Horizon 3 😂 😂 😂...
It's a lil joke ppl don't kill me... but great car
+Rick Edmondson lol
didnt one of the forza games have "the smoking tire" car pack?
When is Matt going to buy a second mic so we can hear the passenger?
Vax Buster my current setup is the most versatile, and the most consistent. I'm going to stick with that.
Vax Buster maybe you need to check your hearing. No issues here
Both people have the same voice level. I would even say the passenger is easier to hear in this video. HOWEVER, sticking with a setup because it's convenient/versatile is short-selling yourself.

@TST that's a very professional and diplomatic way of saying 'F--- Y-- Vax Buster'.......... :-) good job Matt.
Late for work... continues watching anyway.
Hahaah bout to be late!!! Gotta go!
Hahaha I'm so glad I'm not the only one lmfao
A Chevy motor in a Mustang? Some people are gonna freak out.
Cereal Killa I think there are more swapped LS motors than 302 in fox bodies
AllCoupedUp no there aint just some are ls swapped
You must not watch Drag Week...
Well, my cousin put a twin turbo Ford 302 (I think) in a 67 Camaro. I think he got tired of the grief and put a Chevy back in it.
+WikdSeafood why u lying
This is one of those cars where the owner loves it, guys like it, but girls hate it! Dude, don't listen when she tells you "it needs to go" ;(
yup, girls like new, shiny, and pricey cars. I think a car that proves your wrenching skills probably chases women away. :)
infidel900rr most women period, don't like to get into dirty cars.
infidel900rr I'm a girl, and I love loud cars. And a foxbody 😍 I love any high HP car tho
***** 😊
ThatSN95Gerrl but do you like dirty cars though? unless with a little bit of the herp on the seat sseat?
Looks very much like a larger Ford escort xr3i we got in the uk. Sort of.
Seriously??? No one is going to ask what the light switch on the dash does?
it turns on the lights obvs.
It turns on the engine, shown in the 1st review of the car when it still had a 5.0
4:34 80 on the freeway at 1500mph? that's a bit insane!
Imagine the top speed.
clayton8or_2 For a long range car with like a 50 gallon fuel cell that would be amazing
1,500 rpm lol
clayton8or_2 80 mph at 1500 rpm, he's talking about his over drive
Rhonda Brough incase it wasnt obvious enough
More excited for the IRS than the LS1
We need more of these conversions ASAP
gorrilaunit99 working on mine, it'll be closer to Matt's coupe when it's "done"
More suspension
less engine
You know you're are gear head when you understand everything these two geeks are talking about!!!
As a Mach 1 owner, I would have been happier to see a coyote or terminator engine, but kudos for doing something different and controversial and making it all work. Others will scream, but in the end it is about what works for you.
And LS swap is not exactly "different" but it certainly does work.
lol ls swap different in a fox body? its prob the most done swap after the 302
Okay, so maybe I don't LIVE this stuff but an LS in a Mustang bugs me a little even if it is just because LS engines are so good.
Different in what I've seen because while the LS family is wildly popular, I didn't know it was so lmfao commonly done to Mustangs. Did I explain and make enough excuses to avoid further laughing?
Cheap, durable and parts are every where.
LS foxbody..Its about time. The marriage of the best from Ford and Chevy.
I vote this for One Take Car of the Year 2016
*I Love this build!* Owner knows his shit.
Would you two nerd out a little bit more please? Great thanks.
Nothing but love for the thoughts, and tons of work, that has gone into this car. Besides knowing his stuff, the owner seems really pleasant too. Great video to watch. Would be fun if te two of you would drive eachother's cars on a track, compare notes and talk about what works in each car aso. Would make one hell of a video i think :)
JohnnyNr5 yeah michael's gonna get a go in my car for sure
TheSmokingTire Something to look forward to. Very cool Matt :)
TheSmokingTire please do so Matt. Michael was great on his recent video for a cheap SVO build on the drive channel and will do well behind the camera again.
Sick Camaro bro!
I think you guys should both take ur cars into a racetrack and find out, which one is faster!
fuck that a mustang with a ls1 u kidding me what a diss !!
5.0s just have an iconic sound, growing up in the 90s when these cars were everywhere you could tell someone was getting on a mustang just from the sound without even seeing the car. Ls engines are great I've even done a couple swaps but it bothers me when people say it's cheap. It ends up being more expensive/or you spent tons of time fabricating instead of spending money. Only time it's cheaper is if it's half assed...
One of the best one takes ever. Any no *ucks given 'drag car' that eats canyon like that is 100% in my books.
Why not get a Chevy? Fake ass! Only a piece of shit puts a ls1 in a Foxbody swap to coyote and represent what you drive! There is only one excuse if you buy that motor for a great price!
haha just came to read about just how butt hurt the Ford fanboys are...
Rabit Le Savage Show don't they put LS into everything? can't think of any Ford engines...
yeah LS is an engineering marvel... history repeats itself... sbc days are back
Google at your service. :) Just because you're Chevy fanboy doesn't mean Ford didn't make any great engines.
lol
+TCMustang - Well I would say the 80's Ford 5.0 engine was ok, not great. It put out pretty weak power for how large it was, but it was reliable.
LS Won.
haha i like that!
should have put a cobra motor in it
That is the coolest foxbody I have ever seen.
whats with all this sloppy ass wiring everywhere? you can swap an LS into a Fox but you can't route a goddamn wire properly?
Two things wrong here.... ls1 “sounds like shit” and somehow a heads cam ls1 in a foxbody isn’t fast. 🤔 bad combo maybe
I look at yhe phone and see this fox again was like ah....old video... clicked on it, and fuck ya!! Lol and reviewing matts fox is best comment
Bull shit Ford is a Ford 302 LS1 in a Mustang is b******* shit i love the video. I don't mind swap but keep it FORD 5.0 engine
Can't you just run your exhaust out the side like a Viper instead of going under the IRS and out the back ?
Very nice! Now to find an EVO swapped STI ...
I didn't even watch the video; just wanted to comment. I am sick to death of the Chevy-on-Ford violence! I guess there just isn't another motor in the whole wide world other than an LS. Jesus H. Tap-Dancing Christ. Hope the thing dumps its guts all over the Angeles Crest.
This is the best one take so far! This one is going to be hard to beat lol. The owner knew his car inside out and actually knew what he was talking about. Loved how they were both into the convo. I was so into their convo, that I completely forgot about the dashcam lmao!
i made it 3mins 48 secs i hope you guys had a nice make out session after this. trollll away lol go ahead call me an internet dooshbag
Mike and Matt seem like the same person.
give it a fatter cam and it will burble : )
"1,500 Mph in 6th gear" Lol
He should have Dona a 351 swap instead of a junk LS, even a 4.6, both of thouse motors can make more horse power for less
Done a ***
What the fuck is going on with the light switch?
Fuck, I sold my 5.0 and got a Camry. I need a muscle car again
My friend I want to where can I buy those ac vents with gauges both ?
this is a abomination. ford requires ford. damn thing need a 351w
Man you guys know your fox bodies. What a great video.
omg, that wiring... cringe
Killed the spirit of the Mustang, sounds like shit is right!
I had a '90 lx 5.0 with all the right go fast parts and I loved it but, being honest, a modern LS can put any pushrod 302 to shame. A more fair comparison is the coyote against an LS and even then GM will usually win.

that where the 351 comes into play. dont know why people want to compare the LS to the 302 when its smaller displacement from the get go.. lot of ford engines out there OHV to OHC
@@lljmack An ls1 is gonna walk a 351 too man
Coyote swapped fox would be cooler to me but this thing is still awesome
He said he was doing 80mph at 1500 miles per hour in 6th :P lol..
Love the fox bodies.
Regret watching the video without reading the title first 😩
I love the LS1 in my clean m6 02 z28 (I got manual crank windows too), Glad to see a modified version in Michaels nasty stang.
This is like having interspecies relations. Hate it.
another driver with a Valentine 1 awesome! it's so dope when car guys can get together and drive each other's cars for comparison... my 95 mustang with an IRS will be up for a one take soon...
I missed this one, but you mentioned it in the podcast with Thad so I went after this. Definitely a good solution to a blowed-up 302, and nice middle finger to the purists. Can't wait for your Fox Body to be properly sorted, and hopefully for the final one-take for it, Michael should be in the driver's seat so he can talk about it with you.
Listening to these two go back and forth about their respective cars modifications and not missing a beat is something to see!
Two guys nerding out on their cars. Love it! Good One Take!
Matt's foxbody vs Michael's foxbody. 1/4 mile and then 3 laps around a circuit that is close. Would be a sweet episode.
Behind ever corolla...there's a mustang waiting to pass. lol. Glad to see this guy got his car up and running. I'd love to try to keep up with him in a canyon in a 3rd gen camaro. lol
Nice to hear about the suspension upgrades and the IRS. I'm swapping a 03 Cobra IRS into my 87 foxbody Saleen clone. I live near Denver so I'm excited to take it out for a mountain drive when it's installed.🎉

( been salivating for such a drive since the product's been on the market only to see it hasn't made the Camaro or Pontiacs here yet )
Anyone have a good write up on how to eliminate EGR and the Air Pump system on the 302 engine? Mine is a truck engine.
