The work starts again. Just purchased an A9S from the Corral. Should arrive later this week!

Car still sits as is in the basement. Start it about once a week. Last week let it run with the fan on for a bit and the car got WARM. Not sure if I have an air bubble or issue with my t-stat. We are currently working on cabinets to redo my kitchen, so I am holding off on car stuff till after...

Welcome!

Found a break in the speedo sensor sheathing. Took apart connector to repair. Installed a 95 Mustang 3G alternator after multiple charging issues! Installed a 4 gauge power feed from the alternator as well as a ground out of 4 gauge from the engine to the chassis. Original wire i used...

Thanks! Can't wait for more seat time.

Got the car tuned yesterday. Few small bugs to work out before a final tune next spring, but its driveable! Went from flat black to rattle can gloss. Looks a tad better. 99 Mercury Cougar fan installed. Getting ready to load up for the 1.5 hr trip to tuners location.

The mechanical fan was just an OEM equivalent, but I'm in the process of converting to electric earlier than expected. Held it up at 2K when we had the first good fire and got it warm, after that I was told to put it right in its paces. Motor is completely roller. Used an OEM stat so temps just...

Next update. All that's left is to get the electric fan installed and tune. But of course my Ford Taurus Fan swap couldn't be EASY! Due to the thickness of the fan and not being able to move the fan much around on the radiator the fan motor hits the water pump shaft. The fan is just shy of...

This is what ya get when using Prothane motor mounts.... Shrowd no longer fits correctly. Now I have to go electric. Some how it still all fits under my POS hood... Video with HORRID exhaust leak at collector. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL8bIG1ehrQ Big thanks to friends and family for...

Finally more headway: Summit to the rescue with some felpro 1262-S3's. Ordered last Thursday at 4:30 PM and were on my doorstep 9:30 AM Saturday via ground shipping! Some test fitting. Cleaning up the intake. Intake installed. These are not the valve covers i will be using...

Finally going to be getting back into this. Ordered my Fel-Pro 1262S3 intake gaskets from Summit yesterday.

Did some more work on the car last weekend. Got the accessories on, driveshaft in and interior put mostly back together. Hit a stopping point as i need fluid for the trans (gonna pour in the top before the shifter goes in), also need lower intake gaskets and all other fluids.

Engine and trans are set in the car! Had to get a new socket for installing spark plugs. My actual spark plug socket is too thick even though its considered thin wall and is a nightmare to get the plugs in. Found a 12 point socket that is a tad skinnier in diameter from Craftsman and works...

Got some more done on the car this weekend. Basically got the valves set up. Down with pneumonia has left me real slow. Plan is to put the engine in the car this Saturday (May 07, 2016). Got a new Motorcraft oil filter: Building of the mock oil pump primer: Finished primer: Then...

Finally got back to it with the help of my brother. Been sick as all hell lately and lasted as long as I could last night. We got the rocker studs installed along with the adjustable guide plates.

Next step in the project complete! Borrowed a Hotsy and cleaned the 3 years of dust of the car as well as de-greasing of the engine cradle.

New rocker studs came in today.

Bumpin' this up, still in need.
