Enjoy

Just thought I'd share some progress pics of the stang.

I have been working on it for a few months now, but being 2 hours away from it, it makes it difficult to get anything done. Enjoy, let me know what you think

The old combo
All unported-

331 cubes
Vic jr heads
vic jr manifold
Trickflow stage 3 cam
bbk shorty headers
Stock t-5

It made 407RWHP
I dont know what the car weighs, but it went consistent 11.50-11.70 at 2700 ft altitude

New combo-I am hoping for around 470-480 to the wheels, hopefully around high 10 sec ET's.

I dont want to get my hopes up to much, I just want to drive it and have fun.

I dont want to think about the dollars spent either...in the last few months I spent $5000 on just the heads, transmission, and convertor.

As long as it stays together, I will be happy.

You know, thats funny because with the airbox (heater and A/C blower/condenser/heater core) out of the way, a nitrous bottle hides nicely under the dash.

It is very possible it will be utilized, although, I will keep it rather conservative.

OH, BTW,

The car used to be DFG with tan interior

Yah...its got bassani stepped 1 3/4" to 1 7/8" long tubes, Bassani 3" X pipe, 3" flow tubes, and spintech mufflers dumped.

I'd like some tail pipes but I dont know anyone that makes 3" or bigger tail pipes.
