I Need your Help,PLEASE......
 

Okay I have a freind do a V8 swap on his LX,He has everything already and he is going to do the swap on Monday. Will he need to get a 8.8 rear end or will the 7.5 be able to support the V8 302 5.0?

the older 5.0's came with a 7.5 in them

Probably, but why? I mean if you're putting the $$ into the swap why skimp on what puts the power down? Go find an 8.8

So it well be able to support it?

ya but why not go 8.8 with a 5 lug

I have been looking for a 8.8 rear end in the junkyard,I have had no luck finding any. How long will it last him,the 7.5?

it will physically bolt in place and be functional to move the car around on.

but think of it as a bandaid while you look for a rear end.

ford wouldnt of spend the extra money if they didnt have to.

Will it break if he luanches it or burns tire?

depends, how much power hes pushing and how hard he pops it. i personally woiuld not even redline the car to be honest with you. what clem said about it being a bandaid... that is completely true, you dont want to drive on that for long...

Well his engine has a Elderbrock cam,msd ignition,K&N air filter. Will it last if he luanches and races with it?

if it spins the tires... prolly not. if it catches traction, prolly.

ford put an 8.8 in the car for a reason. because they HAD TOO. it will work till it breaks... which wont be long.

assuming the stock driveshaft works.

which no one no, because they know better then to try.

how ever some cheapass on corral/stangnet prolly has.

I had gone to another site,and I had copied link to this,and they told me all of you are telling lies..........

Thanks for letting us know that we are liars.. We appreciate it, now please don't ask us any more questions because I for one will not be giving you anymore answers.

Anyone who says a 7.5" rear end is adequate, efficient, or reliable for handling the power of a V8 is a moron, let us know when it breaks.

I told them in ALLFORDMUSTANGS my username is 1st5l, fuck offf.

You're the one that asked the question, we gave you an answer, you didn't like it then called us liars. I believe that you're the person who needs to, as you put it, "fuck offf."

I honestly don't care what your friend does, but if he plans to race, do burnouts, pop the clutch, or drive hard in general tell him to get AAA because it will break and he will need a tow.

the 7.5 doesnt have the trac lock or posi does it? it will just do one wheel peels i would think so it wont even launch well if you try..and will break soon anyways lol

Nikka fuck you. This isn't bigtex this is his freind on his laptop. Dicks.

it will most likely bolt in. but im not even sure as if the pinion is a different length, the driveshaft may or may not work. it will work. itll prolly just break.

Go and suck a dick bitch,this is bigtex freind giving me wrong info. fuck off bitch ass nikka,redneck,wetback,asain. im on his laptop.

ok so we told you what we think and know. is there any thing else you need to know. if not ok if so ask and dont try to convice us that we are rong it wont work and as far as telling everyone to fuck off this is not the place for that and all you will do is piss people off then know one will answer your ?'s.

I apoligezize for what my freind has said.

tell your friend to stay off you account and get his oun. he will get you a bad rep.

Okay,now that I have helped him finish his car won't start the elictricaty starts when you turn the key but the engine doesn't. He had the engine from his 91 gt he wrecked and hasn't been started for 5months.
