that is a great fit!!! the weak link is the mounting in a fox body and the tubes bend!!!!
if your going big get the pinion support cover and a axle tube brace . there was a great article in FSC on that swap. ALWAYS cheak that the tubes are straight!!! ya dont want to spend the bucks and then need another doner !!!
