So after I blew off my steam and calmed down about that whole mess I am ready to start on it myself! Rather then go with my plan "A" with it getting a ground up resto....I am going with plan "B".... Now let me state that I am not going this route for speed or the most power! I have a mustang that I race for speed and power! So I dont really care how much power my build makes at this point.....I am first starting with a rebuild of my 352 FE thats in the truck right now. I am going to port and polish the iron "R" (poor mans CJ) heads that are on it. I will have the bottom end redone with all new parts, ARP bolts and studs all around. I will also add a nice custom grind hyd. roller cam with roller lifters and rockers. I am also going with a Edelbrock Victor intake long tube headers, with MSD ignition and 4150 carb on top.
I am also, more then likely going to can the NP435 4 speed thats in it now and do a T-5/TKO600 swap behind the FE! So with all that I am gonna flip the rear end with a small C notch! UPDATE: I am going to go ahead and do either a Mustang 2 or CV front end! after thinking about it, I would be wasting time and money trying to make drop beams work.
As for paint paint and body work, that will be last on the list! But for now its gonna stay in its current state! Unless I can scrape up some extra money for a little paint and body work.......
Plus I have also been collecting a few parts here and there for the build! I scored on this DOVE single plane intake! The intake will serve nicely with my EFI set up and turbo! And I also scored on a nice 88mm turbo as well as nice new chrome cluster for my resto. I am going to go ahead and do either a Mustang 2 or CV front end! after thinking about it, I would be wasting time and money trying to make drop beams work. More pics and info to follow soon!
