p-351, sounds pretty good. I wouldn't mind having any of those!

Not sure if this has been asked yet but does anyone have any build plans for this winter on any vehicle? I know Matt you were talking about a different trany to handle the extra boost next summer, right?!
 
Im doing a C head swap and terminator intake cams, Mach one intake, new brakes, new output shaft bearing, full poly bushing kit, a little laughing gas, and an MGW to top it off. And depending on money im thinking about a hotchkis sway bar set,
 
Wow harris looks like a good list, good luck.

I forgot to put my own list; I'm going to do a set of gears (not sure if 390's or 410's yet), replacing all the bushings on rear end, a MSD 2 step, Tokio D Spec shocks and struts, Weapon X coils, ported blower and a 4lb lower. Then I need to have it all tuned not sure were I'm going to have it done. I was going to go down to Andy in Watertown but I know of two people who went to him and had there motors blow! Not saying its all his fault or his fault at all but its still a little scary to have him work on my car knowing that!

I've been doing buisness with Andy for many years, all I can say is he is Top Notch! He's been doing the Car Craft Magizine Dyno Challange coast to coast for quit some time.

With that being said, I'd really like to get my Black 89 Turbo project going. I've been gathering parts for 5+ years and its time to get this Bad Boy screwed togather!

I'm not sure if that's the same guy that Eric Sansburn went to from Grand Forks but I know he had a bad tuner and went pop and had to do some repairs. Not sure of any good tuners around here! (probably the only plus to having a bolt on GT that I can just do e-mail tunes with :tomato)

My brother has 4.10's on his 03 cobra and doesn't mind it, but he daily drives 315 555r's as well to account for it and the ported cobra power etc.
 
I would like to get the 347 screwed together for Robyn's 94 over the winter, and of course I would like to finally make some progress on my 90....
^^awesome! :woot
 
junkie, I have heard great things about him and I knew that he is in high demand with going all over. Also, egfconnor brings up a guy Eric that has an 03 cobra and he had problems with going down to andy also,...So I don't know what the hell is going on all the people I know that go down there? I have talked to him and he seems very knowledgeable about what I want and everything. Just crazy that I know of three different people who have had problems after going to see him.

Anyways, sounds like some good plans by everyone. I hope that this year has been good and that everyone will meet there winter goals for next summer!

What kind of shape were the motors in when they came?

Yes Lentech Aod is sold just waiting to order a th400 Just buying a few swap parts now. I am also going to change to a MSD digital 6 so I can have a 2 step with the trans brake.

I would have someone with a steller email tune record tune your car. John Lund, VMP, Amazon racing. I would also put a set 80 lbs and a BAP so you could run a e85/ pump gas 50/50 blend it would be safer and make more power.

Why a TH400 over a built C4? I've heard the TH400 rob alot more power!

A well built Th400 require less upkeep then a c4. Also you can buy a NEW th400 with a JW sfi bell 300m input, drum and trans brake good for 1300 HP for $2200.

Th400 are in 7 sec cars and don't need a rebuild after a race weekend.

Get the turbo car done there is talk of a 1000$ purse for quick 8 for the 2 day street legals next year @ sabin.

OK, you talked me into it. I'm going to start assembling the short block real soon. I've got the rear end & suspension in place. I've got to wire & plumb the fuel system(not looking forward to that). Then start up front!
 
What pump are you going to use?
I have a 2000 Mustang fuel tank with the new Lethal Performance DivisionX/Fore fuel hat and twin Aeromotive 340lph in tank pumps, -10 braided feed line, -8 braided return.

Looks good, can you use three pumps if needed with that hat. I would bet lots of foxbody cars will start useing those hats.

No, this will only accept 2 pumps, but with the 340 pumps it will support 1200+ HP, so I'm not the least bit worried. I just didn't want a sump & lines hanging on the bottom of my tank.
