[QUOTE="laextreme5, post: 15492318, member: 183717"] Well, this is my newest project. If you knew me personally this is quite left field, and i even surprised myself honestly lol. Id originally set out to purchase a budgie wrx to build for 1/4 and 1/2 duties after parting out my 240 project, however while eating lunch after cars and coffee with a few friends i asked my buddy about his new edge mustang. He'd pulled the original 4.6 out of it to Ls swap it, but found a fox body chassis and picked up and is now doing the swap in it. So i made him an offer and well now i own a mustang haha Purpose and goals behind this car are simple. It will be a base and tool to learn how to assemble a short block and hone my skills doing so. And i very good way to prove and test such work is to make it go really really fast. Regarding speed my goals are 150MPH in the 1/4 200MPH in the 1/2 mile Beat 1/2 mile stick shift record As of current the stick shift 1/2 mile record is 221mph by a twin turbo Gallardo. Doubt id be able to beat that, as thats a 2000hp car, but without dreams and goals whats the point in even trying. Now onto the actual car. Its a 2002 Ford Mustang GT. Car currently has no motor or transmission. I have my Ls 4.8 left from my 240 project which will be used for the base of this build, and will eventually be replaced with a aluminum block motor in the future. I will be running a manual Nissan CD009 transmission form a 06+ 350z. To mate the trans to the Ls ill be using a Collins adaptor plate (which is a beautiful piece) [url=https://flic.kr/p/Njdfvt][img]https://c6.staticflickr.com/6/5599/30398498405_998026db0a_c.jpg[/img]untitled (6 of 6)-3[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/90393917@N02/]lawrx[/url], on Flickr [url=https://flic.kr/p/NjdfY2][img]https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5534/30398499945_43739d5710_c.jpg[/img]untitled (3 of 6)-3[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/90393917@N02/]lawrx[/url], on Flickr [url=https://flic.kr/p/Njdgqp][img]https://c4.staticflickr.com/6/5595/30398501475_c575d72a8a_c.jpg[/img]untitled (1 of 6)-3[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/90393917@N02/]lawrx[/url], on Flickr [url=https://flic.kr/p/N8U66u][img]https://c3.staticflickr.com/6/5324/30281789762_57d4dab1c6_c.jpg[/img]untitled (4 of 6)-3[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/90393917@N02/]lawrx[/url], on Flickr Ive still yet to get the chassis to my house as I'm super busy with side work.
