Have some updates, and pictures. Bought the intake from @84Ttop and the cam from @TOOLOW91. Got the engine yesterday from my friends fiances dad.... follow that? It's a stock block out of a 92 LX, has about 52k on it opposed to my 130k block. Once it's on a stand I'll go through it but it looks promising! Should be on the stand this weekend and I'll get into it then.

Looks very clean, nice score. Really digging the orange and black on the Trick Flow intake. What cam are you going with?

Thanks, I like the orange and black on the intake too, That's how I bought it but I've decided the car is gonna be pretty close to that orange. It's a TFS stage 1 cam. ARP head bolts and Ford Racing 1.6 roller rockers should be at my house today also. I'll snap a pic of those when I get home.

I've been slacking on this, I was off all last week and had a few days to work on it but didn't get much done. Heads are on and torqued, gotta start pulling what I'm gonna use off the old engine and such to get this swap going.

Been quite for a few weeks, had a few busy weekends with work then decided to take a weekend trip to Nashville. Hopefully this weekend I'll be able to hit it hard and get some work done.
