Very cool car you built. I saw you driving on Route 13 a few months ago and your car sounded good going by me.
Haha! Thanks! It’s not very fast but it’s a fun street car. I’ve decided to use the E303 cam I have laying around. Maybe I can pick up a couple more hp. I live in Levittown, Pa. and route 13 is nearby.

What cam are you currently running?

It has a stock ho camshaft from a fox mustang. That necessitated a 94 and later 351W block. Block casting is F4TE so I could use stock fox mustang roller lifters and spider. Oh... and the stock cam is acting on higher ratio Cobra roller rockers to compensate for the extra displacement.

I'm in Levittown too. I'll probably see you out and about again. I don't have the mustang anymore. Eventually I'll get another.

The car is down for a while. I am installing polyurethane control arm bushings front and back and I may do some fabrication to switch to a mustang fuel tank.

Daddy got to drive a GT350. I didn’t push it too hard mainly because I am not used to shifting at 8000 rpms so I didn’t think to. Oh well. Next time.

When you finished with the cam install, can you post a drive video? I'd love to hear the Daddy Wagon wail.

Here I have my gauge cluster options. I will probably go with the tach because I am going 5 speed.

Not sure what you ended up with on this, but no reason you can't have both....................

Really cool. I look forward to your updates. Keep 'em coming.
Thanks! I will definitely keep posting because I have so much I would like to do to the car. The plus side of me not being wealthy is that this build is gonna go on for a while and I get to post about and y’all get to read about it! Haha!

Yeah. I have yet to install that camshaft. Maybe soon.

I ended up sticking with the full LTD LX cluster but the plans are for a full conversion to 89 fox mustang dash and console.

OK, sounds good. Hit me up on Foureyed, I'm OX1, same as here when you decide to swap all that stuff. Might be interested in some spares, if you are looking to sell.
