Motor is all buttoned up and ready to be dropped back in the car. Not going to happen until I get the upr K member in, and a little neatening up.

here are the final pics of the motor on the stand. next ones will be in the bay with the blower on.... Hopefully.

Thanks for all the support and help I received.

Getting closer.

Old hunk of steel of a k member removed. and the new UPR that went in.
Fit was perfect.

doing most of the work outside? in NY? in winter?

geez....one tough hombre...

 

[Wicked One]

Yep. Outside in ny winter. I do have a little torpedo heater.

I got all the wiring done today and just finishing up some little crap.

I do have a question. My ba5000 maf has a 6 pin connector as does the mafia (just in case). But my meter only uses 4, it is the one that came with the kb. So now what? Didn't do much research yet cause I am outside with the car now.

Thanks.

This confirms what I saw in the first couple pics as it looked like a car port. Hats off to you for doing this build in that type of setting.

Build looks good! Call RealSpeed on LI for tuning if you're still looking. They tuned my car (before I moved to CA) & most Mustangs on LI that I know of have been tuned there. Dan Carlson is the owner & he knows his shit.

I am aiming towards real speed. They are a sponsor of my club, so that might be the route.

And Doogie, I have a carport with 2 sides enclosed, helps a bit but not much. Today I put up a tarp to block the wind, it helped a little more. Next Year I might just build another wall and put a door on it and have a semi garage. I like having one side opes for ease of entry and not feeling like I am in a cage.

I have to say that would suck to do this outside in the cold, hats off to you for that, can't wait for you to get it done man!!!!

Nice build, car, and dog, shepherds are awesome

 

[Wicked One]

Not much to report. I installed my new roush side skirts. and moved some more hoses and crap around.

Replaced the power steering pump.

Hopefully I can get some time to drop the motor in either tomorrow or thursday.

Had a great day today!!! Me and dad got the motor in and all bolted up. Everything is on except the radiator, exhaust needs to be bolted, o2 sensors hooked up, power steering bled and finish plumbing the meth.

The driveshaft is going to wait as is the fuel system and new MAF. I am going to get the bitch running, then it is going off to the paint shop. After that, then I will break in the motor and clutch and head out to have it dyno tuned with the MAF and fuel system.

Just so you understand the fuel system, it is a custom built gt500 hat that houses 2 aeromotive stealth 340 pumps. THe stock gt500 hat has 2 little 130's in it. I should not have to worry about running out of fuel with this bad ass set up.

The car also got a new set of roush side skirts. Looked a little off with the gt500 front and the center exhaust rear.


Here she is in her final resting place!!! Thanks for all the support and help, hopefully tomorrow I can fire it up.

Excuse Max (my dog), he loves to photobomb

 

[BoostedGT480]

nice progress...will be back to check the updates

 

[Wicked One]

Thanks.

I have spoken to numerous tuners, and I am good to go with my current tune.

Fire up will be nerve racking, but I am confident in my work.
