[88-gt-t-top]

Thanks for all the support guys... I finished up under the fender tonight, I'll finish the MSD and engine bay tomorrow. Hopefully the damn radiator will show this week so I can get everything mocked up... Thursday I'll be ordering the clutch, most likely Anderson Ford...

Thanks man, it took a while but definately worth it in the end.

[88-gt-t-top]

Well I didn't get as much as done as I planned on, this cold is kicking my ass... I blocked off the gapeing hole in the firewall from the heater core, put in the fender liner, and removed that plate that goes between the block and flywheel off the old motor... Here's the pic of that block-off plate.

Ordered the clutch from AFM yesterday in the a.m. and it showed up today early afternoon. I went with the Super King Cobra kit, came with throw-out bearing, and allignment tool. Hopefully I'll kick this fever by tomorrow and get this sucka in by Sun. UPS has my radiator showing up on Mon. So, so-far I'm right on schedule with my mid March start-up.

Really thats funny I drive a 95 also. Do you feel sorry for me. What motor are you running by the way? I agree with who ever made the comment about the people making the comments on 331-347 probably having neither one. The 331 myths are bullshit but a lot of people must like them and have their reasons for them or nobody would make a 331 kit dont you think. I went with a 347 and am glad I did but i dont feel sorry about my 95 any day. Like the way it looks inside and out better, and like the brakes and suspension and a lot of other things better. Thats why they are called opinions. Cant anyone be happy for the guy instead of busting his balls. I mean he didnt come on saying the 331 is better or the 347 has oil problems, he just said this is what he is building....Good luck with your build bro and congrats. It will be a lot of fun. Dont worrry about the haters

[baine21225]

nothing negative to you, just me smart ass remark in response to his

[95StangMX]

I know i am just messing with ya b . It just seemed like a lot of people jumped on the 347 is better kick on this guy. He is excited for his build and a lot of people are just jealous and trying to kill his buzz. .. either way good luck with the build bro and keep us posted

[baine21225]

if you already have a 331, then by all means run with it.....but if you are in the process off building one or the other then i think the decision should be pretty obvious

[88-gt-t-top]

Well I'm finally getting over this sinus infection, and the radiator came in today. Just took a few pictures to show it out of the car, I know a radiator is a radiator just excited is all. I'm planning on pulling some late nighters to get this baby going by this weekend... Anyway here's the radiator and I'll post pics as the final assembly comes to a close.

[grnstang]

[88-gt-t-top]

So I got off work early today and decided to get this mother in. All worked out and was succesfull. Still some things to take car of underneath the car, the transmission isn't sitting right... drive shaft... starter...exhaust. But all in all I'm happy with the progress thus far... Here are some pics as promised, and more to come untill the car is running, at that point hopefully a decent start up video... Thanks for any comments or suggestions.

[88-gt-t-top]

So I'm planning on draining the gas tank tonight, prime the oil system, get some new gas, and start this bad bitch up... Seeing as how everything has be working out, it wont happen... The lower's torqued, everything else is just resting there. Hope you all like it as much as I do...

[89LX347]

[jack90gt]

Got the heater core and blower motor out, I'll post pics tomorrow once I get home with the motor. CAMN89GT- Maybe I'm wrong but maybe 2-3years ago did you used to bring your car on a trailor to a "common meeting ground" named "Strats"?

Sure did..... That hang out, got ruined by a bunch of ricers.... It used to be a "GREAT" spot... Fri/Sat/Sun, All 3 nights .... I used to go there, unload my car and get $1k races all night long, now you get nothing, you're LUCKY if u dont get into a fight. Hell, you're in chicago.... I'm all around there... If ya see a plate CAMN342 , and on the back says "STOCK SUSPENTION, SACK UP AND GET SOME!" then you'll know it's me! If ya see me, come up to me and say hi.


or..... if you need help with the stang, let me know.. im local and willing to give a hand or two. if you need answers on a build, ill show you my car and give examples.

[jack90gt]

So did this thing get started yet??? Hopefully you can bring it down on the 5th for the get together man......
