[QUOTE]Originally posted by v-town coupe: [QB] dean-93 depends on what your going to do and how far you want to go. the line between having a car your trying to drift VS a drift car is crossed early on. a lot of the cars arent even running a front sway bar due to the steep steering angle needed to achieve proper "drift" and with foxbodys already having a short wheel base the odds are already against you. if your just looking to go and have a little fun find your self a spare set of rims(17's) and "stretch" some smaller(not as wide) tires on there and get your self a decent coil over setup. that would give you a better advantage over all the other stock mustangs that try to run. next step would a hydro e-brake setup and a "drift" alignment( possibly a cage? def. some subframe connectors) and then some seat time will improve it from there. there will come a point where you may need to start hacking you car up some to allow for better alignment specs but of course that all depends on rim width etc. to give you an idea of how much steering angle those 240's need heres a pic of one where they had yo chop the lower corners of the engine compartment: [IMG]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/norcalcougar/virgilenginebay.jpg[/IMG] Ive had the bug for a long time to build a drift car and was very close to getting my parents 84 5.0 gt they bought new in 84. fell threw since i didnt have my house yet and my dad needed the money before i could get it out of there [/QB][/QUOTE]
