Corey- Thanks so much. We are definitely having a good time, I sure am bummed he doesn’t live closer. I remember what you had said to me about your ole man and I respect your wisdom. I am enjoying every minute of it.

John- Thanks so much for the offer!!! I just might take you up on that! Pretty sure I want to hide the wires and the vacuum tree. I really do appreciate the stangnet community and all they offer each other.

I will keep you guys updated with the progress...
 
Ok well just let me know, i'm redoing mine again also just going a diffrent route i talked to your mail man today that your dad was talking to about some stuff. If you havent seen mine from last year ask him how it looks. peace

didnt look like you got far to me:shrug: ... Jeesh I would of had twice the stuff done in that amount of time.. what did you get sidetracked and go to the track to see



ME?


:p :p

It was nice seeing your dad.. hes cool people!! next time RACE MY CAR!!!:D
Yeah Yeah YEAH I know you *ahughhh JEFF ahughhh* always is very speedy when getting your car done but we my dear are mere amateurs... Very soon I hope to be the expert with the help of some loyal stangnetters... Esp Andy thus far!:nice:

I will tell the ole man you enjoyed laughing at him ;) And I am NOT racing your car as you will end up with NO TRANNY in the vehicle. You and I both know 2nd is gone, or at least the synchros so there is no way Justin pulls the pin on that Grenade! Let your "man" do that one. If he would quit checkin out guys butts he could have actually driven for ya! You might wanna ask him about that one...:rlaugh:

Oh and BTW I updated some pics up there with the progress....

so wich h/c/i ? :D
Well I already had the Cobra upper/GT40 lower intake but I want to do some polishing and hopefully porting if it seems viable. The heads are trick flow with upgraded springs. Comp camps pro magnum 1.6 RR's and lifters, FRPP timing chain, FRPP 42 lb injectors, and Ed Curtis cam... Of course many other misc items but no need to list em all...:nice:

Yup time to hide everything in the fenders, and polish all your aluminum stuff. Its so much fun!!! :D
So true but I am just getting so anxious! I have waited thus far, I had better just take my time... Ordered a bit more today, one step closer to completion...:D
 
Hey, your starting to look alot like your ole man:D

How much further did you get after installing the heads, lower on? Justin are you doing the polish work as well?

Lookin like my ole man!??!!?:bang: :p Well I have just had a block sittin in the car for the last two months, so we installed the cam along with the timing gear, the lifters, and the heads themselves. Just a few small steps, but he should be coming over sometime in Feb and we can finish it once and for all!

As for the polishing, yes I have done some myself, but I have a ways to go to finish all the polishing... Slowly but surely! Anything up your sleeve from the winter?
