Hey, I'm looking to pick up a 87-93 Fox-Body and one of my friends has a decent condition 88 GT Convertible that he is selling.  I'm looking to put in a 351 and stroke it for some mean torque, and i'm wondering how good the fox body convertible's frame is at handling high horses and torque.  any advice here would be appreciated, i dont want to make a bad decision.  Thanks!!!

You'll want to reinforce the frame. My mild 85 vert has the doors tristing
