this motor gives me hope on turning my mustang (see avatar) into a real street terror!!

those Slowmaros are going to turn into crymaros after a stoplight bash with that!

Do it... yer body style of mustang is my favorite by far (its very similar to my torino)

still waiting on the C6 trans from Joel's on Joy (on Detroit) and a converter from Lenny at UCC...

also waiting on the fuel pump and related items so I can put together the new fuel system to feed this new engine

Shane,

Could ya post some pics of the car I really like the hub caps!!

this pic was taken in 2005 at the Woodward dream cruise. I used to have diffrnt tires and the dog dish hub caps.


these two pics are more recent without the hubcaps and new tires (mickey thompson street radials in the rear)
I actually had the steele wheels widened with custom offset to fit 275/65 tires with no mods to the body or lip mouldings.

what are the specs (back spacing) on the custom wheels you had made? 5.5?

Ill measure it next time im under the car... its been a few years.

the wheels will be for sale this winter if interested! (ill need wider for the mini tub)

Shane

keep me in mind... Chrysler has the 10" 5.5 bs wheels on summit...

I'd be interested in the wheels and caps for my cyclone if you decide to sell them.

prob wont sell the hub caps... I intend to have a new set of steel wheels made (stockton wheel) when the car is tubbed... stickin with the steel wheel and dog dish hub caps! maybe one day ill add trim rings too!

Well its all *FINALLY* together! took some fab work to get it all together. Driver side valve cover needed to be notched to fit under the master cyclinder (NON power brakes too). Front engine dress had to be modified slightly (the P51 heads have very shallow holes where the brackets bolt into, which caused some issues for the power steering pump). had to do an entire fuel system, as the old engine had a mechanical pump (and fuel lines too small) used -10 braided line and a mallory fuel log for a full return style system. (man is that mallory pump LOUD!) had to do some mods to the front bench seat to fit the shifter for the reverse pattern manual C6. it still needs some tuning (carb, and shifter)... and need to modify a flat hood, with a 429boss style scoop.

but its officially a runner... and will be out on Woodward tomorrow and sat. definately fun! MUCH faster than my old iron head 466!


Again I want to thank Lem Evans & Jet Boat Bob (BF Evans Ford), Joel & Shawn (Joels on Joy trans shop, Detroit), Lenny (Ultimate Converter Concepts) for all their hard work to make this project come together for me!





yep... it works... had to mark my territory out front of my house... hope my neighbors are impressed too! haha

Shane
