    Build Thread My Never Ending 89 Notch Thread

    Also after years of going back and fourth , I finally picked up a Moore race chassis 8.50 cert. Had the harness bar sloped so the seats will still recline a little bit, the door bars are bent for the arm rests. Will be getting swing outs as well. Nothing else on the car is really going to...

    The pin actually fits Perfectly back into the gear as it should and is the right length so I’m not sure what the was the story here. 5 years it’s been like that. I did get the cam back in time- I replaced the whole setup with the correct arp bolt. The heads are fixed - they needed 4 new valves...

    Kurt I’m coming up on almost 9 years with my Holley in my coupe - it is an hp though. Other personal friends of mine longer than that. This forum definitely is heavy on using the ms stuff which was why I made my statement. While I don’t agree with holleys business practices these days on most...

    95 percent of the terminator x issues are user install issues. Period. I’ve done 6 term x cars. I’ve had one failure and that was one car that sat outside while we were stripping for paint and unknown to us the seam sealer rotted at the kick panel behind the fender -water got in and got the ac...

    The car is testing me this year for sure. It runs amazing , well ran amazing. I had a little oil leak from behind the right head ever since it’s back together. Last week I decided to throw another head gasket in effort to get that to stop. Put the car together fire it up take it for a ride and...

    Yes sir this was his actual car , so I have been picking away at it. Now it just needs a 496-540 inch big block and vintage air but it drives amazing otherwise. The 4l80e was a game changer

    Got my 66 finished up in August and did a shake down with it. Took it and completed hot rod drag week with the little .30 over 396 that went 12.96 at 104.7 at 4045lbs. Had a blast. Got the mustang back out last week and cleaned up to have some fun with it. Haven’t touched it since I put motor...

    Post pics of how your foxbody currently sits

    Spent most of the summer finishing my dad’s 66 Chevy after I did a lifter , head gasket , and intake swap on the mustang. Took the 66 and completed hot rod drag week and got to meet Jeff Sias who still pops on here from time to time. Got the coupe out last week and cleaned it all up

    Anyone purchase/install the LMR R-134a conversion kit?

    Little bit of a pain . Little bending , little bit of adding some rubber to get it tighter and it works

    Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......

    In my opinion the cam is soooo important. You have to decide what you want to focus on and have it spec for that Give up some power for drivability or vise versa but you can have both - to a degree anyway

    Yes it’s all back in production I believe. EDIT - LMR has both r series in stock Also again like fast driver - my stuff drives 60 miles round trip alone to work in Ny/nj traffic. It’s docile enough to be fine like you want to drive and makes enough power to go 9.50s on the pump gas tune and...

    FWIW there’s an all steel all glass 408ci Windsor with 22711r heads and an off the shelf Hyd roller cam cam that’s been 9s na and 8s on nitrous with a tkx in a 86 hatchback. Just have to make it work for its intended purpose. I agree with fast driver on the intakes I just didn’t get into...

    Ed knows his stuff. I use Brian Freezy for all my cam and valve train stuff. He is local to me and even before we were friends he spoke with me for hours on the phone on the combo and what I wanted to do etc.

    What’s his idea of non Chinese parts? The 298 dollar crank you listed is a Chinese piece. Even the majority of the really good cranks are cast in china and finished here . If I were building an engine from scratch I’d be using a molnar piece in a dart block for a crank. Best bang for the buck...

    BINGO ! This is where a custom grind comes in . It’s not 1995 . You can make the car drive near perfect and have enough cam shaft Hyd to make 500 plus and still be street able
