seriously i would leave it stock. EXCEPT lower it, put exhaust, subframe connectors. Even drop in K&N filter. Other then regular maintenance i would not touch it.

I know the temptation of modding. but i need to learn to live like normal people for once

Yeah the 33 from Factory Five is what I want also!!

I would pull the motor & tranny out of Saleen #77 and put it in a 33.
Then build a World products all aluminum small block stroked out to 460 cubes and put a YSI trim Vortech on it with a 6spd in #77

That sounds like an amazing plan! Please start now!!!

Oh I said from the start it would be a 347/351 motor and nothing is wrong w/ Red I really like it but I just want something different Im thinking more of a orange hue

What I meant was if your building a S351 clone only use a 351 based motor not a 302 based... so no 347's!! They made a few SN95's in orange but they were S281's. I thought they looked pretty good!

I would love to start tomorrow if I could!!
That 33 weighs around 2000lbs could you imagine that with 650rwhp?? It would be insane!

for me, either a factory five cobra or '33 with a blown modular engine

But if it had to stay Mustang chassis, I'd say a Fox notchback with some kind of kenne-bell fed modular lurking under the hood. Don't ask me why, I'm a sucker for modern tech in an older chassis.

Now, if I were to be realistic and stick to my normal budget, I'd have to build another 94/95 with some kind of pushrod power (undecided). Would be a weight reduction project from the start with maybe a FRPP Boss block taken out to the maximum CI?

Considering 351W's are not to difficult to find I would go that route. Id want some kind of sick orange color.

1996-1998 Cobra with a blower. These are solid cars, look good, and would be a total sleeper.

FTW! They're kinda expensive to mod though (I want aftermarket cams.. )


I'd like to build a Factory Five GTM but put a Ford GT 5.4 TT in it instead of the Corvette engine it was built around.

But that's kinda expensive, so I'll stick to the Cobra and Fox for now.


This would float my boat:
