Picked up this GT about a month ago and just got around to posting the build. It’s a 5 speed. Ran and drove, but I’ve taken out the motor and gone through it. After I removed the heads, there wasn’t even a carbon ring in the cylinders!
Purchases so far:
Aluminum 2.02 heads
Aluminum high rise valve covers from LMR
TFS stage 1 cam
Roller rockers
ARP headbolts
Complete gasket set
High volume oil pump
New water pump
Aluminum radiator and electric fans
New pushrods -hardened
ARP oil pump shaft
Battery relocation (custom made)
New higher torque rating (400) clutch
Aluminum clutch quadrant
30# injectors
MAF for 30# injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump
New ac compressor condenser evaporator
Trunk prop cylinders and mounts
Trunk latch stud
And some other stuff I can’t remember right now. LOL
I’m welding up the engine bay and tucking the wires.
Body will be jet black ( I paint cars for a living), interior will be stock. Haven’t found the right engine and accessories color yet but something along the pewter color with a satin type finish. I think I’d like to find a ford color, but I’ve paint a Ferrari rear lower valance pewter that was an amazing color too.
Driver seat has a small tear that I’d like to find a solution to...
