It's my dad's '96 Mustang with a 351 Windsor swapped in. Wasn't sure where to post it but I thought you guys here in 5.0 Talk would definitely like it.
You can skip to about a minute into the video since the first part is us just pulling it outta the shop

gotta ask, why is the front overhead bar so low?

88LX5.Oh · Apr 14, 2012

He welded it in too low. He started complaining about it as soon as he got in the car lol

Sounds nasty!

88LX5.Oh · Apr 17, 2012

I'll tell him you said that! We've gotten the cops called on us a few times already.

It's hard to when the camera is strapped to your forehead and the car slams you back into the seat. She pulls hard! Can't wait to see what it does at the strip. And, can't wait for the nitrous.

Yeah it's quite the color. It's that safety green that you may (or may not) have seen on some fire trucks but with blue pearl escent in the clear coat

Awesome turn of events. My dad wants to build a 427 stroker for his car. He said we needed a good 351W block, then looks at me and says "We can take the Drag Stang motor out and put in your truck and I can build your motor into a 427".
So naturally I said heck yeah!! Pulling the motor outta the Stang tomorrow and gonna start swapping 'em. I'll keep everyone posted on the 427 build once he gets started on it.

if that cage had been built properly, you would have crunched your hand for sure. Other than that, car sounds good at least.

Not to be a downer but, I can see why the cops have been called. Driving like that through a residential area. Look forward to seeing the time slips though. Lastly, I like the color too.

Looks good, sounds great! How's the truck swap?

Bummer. That would have been sweet. Oh well. Another project for another day.

I've got something else planned for my truck. Gonna pick up a Holley Pro-jection kit for $250. I dunno if you know what it is, but it's a throttle body injection set up. Comes with all the wiring and even the computer, fuel pressure gauge, and throttle position sensor
