    65 Fastback 4.6 DOHC Turbo Progress Pics

    Actually the MSD box comes with a complete harness, which connect to the stock COP's, crank sensor, and cam sensor. A GM MAP sensor also comes with the kit. Other than that you just bolt on an intake and carb and fire it up. It comes with the software to tune your timing curves with a laptop...

    My build log: 66 coupe, will be 4.6L DOHC

    Mine hit with the stock Mustang pan, which is a rear sump also. However if you move you engine back it should clear. To move it back you wil probaly have to ditch the stock oil filter adapter/lower water inlet as it will hit your upper a-arm mount even with a remote oil filter. Moroso and...

    My build log: 66 coupe, will be 4.6L DOHC

    Here are some of my pics from when I fabed my motor mounts. I put a large radius on the corners and cleaned them up since these pics but you can get the general idea. I also had to put a large notch in the back of the crossmember to clear the oil pan. After cutting the notch I then boxed it...

    65 Fastback 4.6 DOHC Turbo Progress Pics

    This setup was planned this way from the get go, so I never had any of the EFI stuff for it. I had the motor built and just bought it as a long block. I then added the carb stuff. I was definatly going for the look in the classic car. I am proficient with EFI also, so if I am not happy with...

    65 Fastback 4.6 DOHC Turbo Progress Pics

    Kevin, Sorry I have not responded I have not been on here for a while. The rear setup is a Heit's kit. It is sold as a bolt on kit, which actually goes on very well. I ended up welding a lot of the kit just for piece of mind. The rear housing I had, and that is the part of the kit that is...

    8 gauge pod for '65

    I thought I would share some pics of the gouge pod that I fabbed up. I wanted 8 gauges, and didn't really want a Shelby pod or a A-piller pod, so I decided to fab something up. I started with my stock gauge cluster, traced it on cardboard, scaned it into autocad, and then drew in the gauge...
