Engine is IN fellas !

Hopefully last update before the BIG day !

Well everything is plugged except radiator (with 2hoses) + fan and power steering pulley and belt. I had a little EPISODE with the power steering pulley and now I'm waiting for a new one :notnice: from Campbell Ford. It's suppose to arrive tomorrow or Friday. After that pulley is installed, I'll have to measure the new size belt. I may have to cut my spark plug wires (Taylor) on the passenger side. They seem to be a little too long now. A few more things to upload in my EEC tuner and I'll installed the computer back in the car. I hope tomorrow is the day... Here's a couple pics for you guys.

Looking nice!!! Hmmm I'm going to have to go to your place with some WD-40 to clean the engine bay a little :D

Is the exhaust all hooked up?

Ok you are welcome here to clean my engine bay. I dont mind that. :D I'll pay for the beer at my house ..and the beer at the strip joint. The buffet is FREE there. :nice:

So I was suppose to have my pulley today or tomorrow. I just called at Campbell Ford and the F***** guy tells me that now the pulley is coming from Memphis and that they'll have it in the middle of NEXT week. :bang: I'm so freakin pissed. Tht means no stang for the weekend. :bs:
 
Sorry to be so late to comment, but "KOOL" Mario! Hope it runs smooth and hard for you.

Looks good but not half as sweet as your new Avatar L! And what's all this about going fishing? L!

Best of Luck with your new powerplant! :nice:
Cheers!

looks good, but you could have gotten away with a 295 out back with the SN95 rear fenderwells. I always liked that body style because you could jam 315's out back no prob

I like it both ways... the old way was VERY sharp also.... When do you add the parachute?

I know that 295's would have been a very nice size BUT the Drag radials for that size were raising the height of the tire way too high. 29.6in high, instead of my current 26.xx in. It's like I would of gone from 3:90 gears to 3:55's again, with that tall tire.

I do honnestly like my previous chrome wheels better...for looks. They were standing out a lot with all the Cobra R's around here. But I still like my new look a lot. The chute is coming up the same week I install my 150shot in :D
