I can't hold it in any longer!

Damn, that's bad ass!!!! Too bad you're gonna be looking at it for another year, but nonetheless, it's yours and I'd say skip the blower and go straight to turbos..


Fuck, and I still need to call Jeremy.. lol. Lunch then call, that's the plan.

Yea I have to buy soooo many parts for this motor before I can drop it in and right now I don't have the money to swap it before spring.

It feels like im starting all over again

Some things I will need....

Ford racing gt500 64mm to body
Kooks 1 3/4 long tubes with 3" xpipe
Magnapack 3" exhaust system
JLT GT500 carbon fiber cold air kit
Whipple 3.4 blower
Over drive crank pulley
Need to by GT500 computer
Stage 3+ spec clutch and flywheel
Afco heat extractor
Fore fuel rails
60 lb injectors

etc etc etc

Lucky My chassis is ready to go and I already dropped for the best of the best parts

Then once the swap is done I will sell my 3 valve motor complete as a long block to make some money back

that blower is gonna be nice... well, i had a friend with a 2.8 KB Mammoth on his GT500 but a guy pulled out in front of him... he swerved to miss the car and it cliped the back of the mustang and spun him around, flipped a couple of times and rolled down a hill... he is okay but the car is toast... i think it made 743 rwhp with a very streetable tune...

Fuck it. Put the headers on and put that thing in there now and just build as you go. That's going to be a sick swap. Good luck!

No way sir... All or nothing. Im going for 9's right off the bat and I would rather wait until I have every part before I do the swap.

It sounds messed up but that's how I want to do it.

I wont be putting a cage in it.... well until they tell me never to come back lol

not sure on these cars but a new edge car will twist up like a pretzel when they get in the higher hp without a cage... i know these cars are completely different tho...

It was my dad's old pro 5.0 car back in the day. He bought it as a demo back in 1988 and it's a family Gem. I have more pics I have to search for. Car has a R block strocked to 351 with a single 88mm turbonetics head unit, kooks custom manifolds, trickflow heads,custom cam, edelbrock intake with a 95mm wilson t body going back into the firewall with a big ice box in the back seat. Has a power glide, with trans brake... leaving at 3800rpms on a 325 drag radial it went 8.71 @ 160mph. Lots left in it to run low 8's but I lost alot of intrest in the whole just race car thing....

If I can't cruise it once a week to a local hang out it's not as fun. Eventually I will get back out with it
