Is it Sunday yet? I miss my car already!

So how did the headers fit before and not now? Must be the edelbrock heads are a tad wider? Or you used thick gaskets? Im tellin' yah, more than happy with just using high temp RTV on my headers and no gaskets, might give you the needed clearance!

Wow, that is one wild ride!

LOL miller, was thinking that hood would top off my 351w swap perfect. Mustang88, currently got that hood i bought off you years ago on my car. Filling its purpose for temporary use till i can find a good cowl.

If the tick is still there do the screw driver to valve cover trick. To see where the sound is coming from. Then you know about which valves to adjust. Just got to thinking that you prolly didn't prime the engine after you installed the heads/valvetrain? So it took some time for the oil to flow...

I checked over the upper side rear of the engine and its definitely coming from somewhere else. I never have good luck with rear main seals.. It is leaking about a dime a night. The Ford racing pan doesn't have the provision for the low oil sensor, so i just tied it to the O2 sensor wiring. I...

Well i got the car timed and slapped my cheap beat up hood on it. The hood doesn't fit well and needed to be trimmed to fit (the the intake). Ive been driving it since Saturday. Drove pretty good for the weekend, had a small coolant leak at the thermostat housing but tightened it up. Rear main...

Engine bay is looking good!

I got my car done but it needs to be tuned still, also kinda worried about driving that far then possibly breaking at the strip lol.

Trying to come up with last minute things to get this car drive-able for this coming Monday! I need to get the crappy hood to fit somehow (cutting involved) and to fix my large exhaust leak at the passenger header to down pipe. Im also wondering if the car's coolant system has purged well...

So is this beast running yet?!

Here is one video after we got it running. Got a large exhaust leak. Ive wanted this sound for YEARS! 1989 Mustang 351w - YouTube

Lol, i really wanted to upgrade the intake, but i have a great love for the gt-40 tube! I couldn't make up my mind.

Its alive! Pics and bids to come.

Big monster vacuum worked perfect! All broken pieces accounted for!

Well went over to Dave's and he made the correct style high pressure crossover injection lines for my rail. Big thanks to him! Also got my MM cable in the mail today, looks of very good quality. Did run into another issue. I removed one of my injectors and the pintle tip broke and fell into...

Fingers crossed for you. There was 1 fox at the yard. Pulled the rail and got professional lines done to connect them now. Also got a fuel supply line with Schrader valve for my brothers 86 so he can get an adjustable setup on his car. I will start it tomorrow if I can get a hand to record it...

Id like to come, but not sure my car will be totally completed and ready to race by then.

Thanks guys! I removed the fuel rails and see that one is bent! I dont know how i didnt realize this, or maybe i did it installing it!? I got a new injector seal kit for the 1 injector, but i now need the drivers side fuel rail. The 351w fuel rail is different, so i was going to go to the...

Sorry these are out of order One pic is the day i bought it in Philadelphia. Im the 4th owner. Was almost bone stock and come to find out needed a lot of mechanical work/tune ups. Next pic is after the 3.73 rear, exhaust and ponys. First is the new 351w under the hood!... Wait, no hood yet!
