Can't wait, will you have that beast tamed by then?

Even if I'm not up there anymore I'll chime in. I'm selling the current engine/trans in the fox but can't decide on which way I want to go. It's either going to be a big stroker motor with a turbo or a coyote aluminator with a whipple 2.9. If I do that the wife said I had to put a whipple on her 13.

Oct 18...tick.....tick.....tick.....

I know, I know. Still need a rear main seal and cover plate, windage tray, thrust bearing, possibly a timing cover, and timing kit. I think there is a plug kit I need to buy. I also need the gaskets, lower hose and a fabbed metal upper hose to finish my 07 coolant conversion. I'm sure there is a ton of other shit I'm forgetting

Been travelling, two thousand miles on a beater rental POS Grand Caravan. The only thing good about this POS are the two side doors and lift gate can be activated from the remote, so walking up to it, pop all three doors and it airs out the heat pretty quickly.

Spent a week in a Birmingham hospital with my Dad, had some heart problems, but he is back home and doing much better. I'm back home, but heading down to Tampa tomorrow, Joanne's uncle passed so going to the funeral.

Nice! Can you up the boost on the Fox?

Cant use anything off your current motor?

Brady, traveling for work or fun? Sorry to hear about her Uncle. Be safe on your trip down south.

Since I don't have another car to drive, I'm trying to build as complete of a long block as can for minimal down time.

Be safe on the drive Brady, lots of miles logged and it's tourist season.

Was supposed to be travelling for fun, but had a few family issues to take care of instead. My Mom is also going through a divorce, so the time I wasn't in the hospital with my Dad, I was moving furniture.

So what is going on the parts closet?

Thank you! Since it is tourist "season", does that mean we can shoot them?

 

[Greg Hazlett]

LOL..only if you are allowed to "stand your ground"!

Missed you at Mustang Week but good grief was it hot!

 

[808svt]

Ray, I'm pretty much at the limit of the block with this set up.

 

[retfr8flyr]

So Ray, what's in the closet? Are you going to build an engine or are you still waiting for the new Aluminator?

How Far can my 47lb injectors get me? My money tree is lookin kinda skimp....

 

[Greg Hazlett]

How much are you looking to up the power?

 

[rayS197]

To complete the puzzle all is left is the motor. Purchased head changing kit, sfi 8 bolt flex plate and some other small stuff for now.

Im looking for 100 more rwhp/tq. Ill be happy with 550/550 if I can get it, but I don't think my injectors will take me there.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Agree; the I will work with you on the 60's and I have them in stock....when are you looking to get them?

 

[LAllison20]

I gotta hold off on those, for a couple weeks. The Boss was not thrilled to hear of the cost on those heads.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Uh oh...plan to hide that one from here failed, eh?
