      Default My old 79 pace car

      Was converted to efi with all 86gt wiring, etc. had an 8.8 with 373s, aod and a nos kit ofcourse. I ran 12.0s in the car 5 years ago and then sold it to Shannon Guiderian who owns Letemodel Restoration Supply in Waco. Dont know where she's at now.

      Love that Pace Car, the EFI drivetrain mated with the Pace Car styling is always a winner

      '85 LX- "4BL 4EYE" - stock and staying that way

      agreed, old style looks with modern day technology is great. I love when people know my 84 Capri wasn't EFI, let alone seeing a blown 331.

      Any photos of the engine bay? Would definately like to see them.

      I love the look of the Weld Draglites on it! Those wheels are timeless on the '79-'93 Fox bodies. It gives the type of attitude that the '70-'72 Chevelles used to have with the Cragar Super Tricks back in the day.
