R352- Stashing this for a future project...

Damn, you always stumble into the coolest ****. Who built that fancy engine only to put a junk intake on it?

Also BTW, lift has nothing to do with drivability/vacuum. That's all in the duration and overlap numbers. You plan on keeping it solid roller?

Thanks! I know about the cam numbers, those are just the only two numbers I was given about the cam grind so far. Trust me, the intake is the first thing to go. I'm getting all of the receipts with the engine so I should know a lot more at that point. I doubt I'll keep it solid roller when the time comes to switch out the cam. I only wish Jay Allen was still in the business

Whats in the bottom end? Ditch that intake and id think about some shaft rockers. Also, stick with the procharger stuff, you wont have to spin it as hard. F-1c or with the 5.4:1 step ratio would be sweet, or a pt-88

Also, dont just stash it away, bring it somewhere and spend a few bucks to have it checked out, lots of shady things going down lately, hate to see you get screwed. If you dont mind me asking how much are you paying for it?

I'm still waiting on receipts/invoices for the motor build so I know exactly what's in it. A very reputable shop here on Long Island called SK Speed (you guys may have seen them race on Pinks) built the motor and supposedly spared no expense. The price tag was well over $10k. I've already called two other shops to have the motor blueprinted by a third party. There's a PM in your inbox about the price.

Turbo not S/C

To each his own, man. I love turbo cars. I've almost built two of them so far I know when they're built right, they're the baddest cars on the block, but I prefer my car going sideways down an empty street at 4 am than up on jackstands in my garage, so it looks like supercharger it is. You never know, though.

I know, I know. Those were sent to me by the previous owner's iPhone. Better pics coming soon.

Thanks!

I bet you wish you still had the strawberry notch, haha. That engine would be baaad in that car.

Low blow man! Seriously though, I miss that car on a daily basis. I was just thinking how badass this motor would be in a car as clean as my old notch was...

Did you end up selling the red car?!

What is this engine going into?!

The red '99 is still here. It's for sale locally and on ebay, though. I don't have a car for this motor to go into, I'm just gonna build it and wait for the right roller and for a time when I have a bit more disposable income. I'm doing this build a little bit backwards, haha.

NikwoaC said:

Ha, I'm just giving you a hard time. You'll find another good Fox for this engine, and probably pretty quick with your luck for finding deals on cars!

No worries, Nik! I'm dreaming of a flat black four eye notch...
