Thought you guys might appreciate this. A project that a guy on another board im a member of is doing. One of the few mustangs i would drive

 

Built ford tough with chevy stuff!!

I dig it!!

 

that is the greatest thing ive ever seen. finally a ford owner that realizes that 5.0 are slow.

 

Lol. He's not even a ford guy. All chevy. Had an Impy with a 396 LT1 and 150 shot that went 10.82.

 

I have a wild hair up my butt to do something like this. Are those off the shelf headers or fabricated? What K member AJE? What are you guys gonna do about a radiator and trans?

I would like to see regular updates on this.

This is a QUICK way to get a 3100lb raceweight car. My turd weighs 3800 with me in it.

With a swap like this I would go straight to running 10.50's all motor.

yes indeed a nice project,clean notch!
the last fox swap i did i used 62-67 chevy II headers(chassis exit) not fenderwell.
you can also use fox headers with the flanges cut off and reweld chevy flanges on with a little modding to the primaries......

 

Hey FivePoint7z28 can you take down the link over at mm and don`t tell people you posted a link here ? Then i can talk about it more. Yes i`m a street racer and need to win some $$ this spring Alot of poeple over there know that i have a fast impala and i don`t want them to know that i put it on a 1,300-1,400 pound diet
Thanks for the good word guys i can`t wait to fire this thing up.
For now heres a couple pics
This is the second day i got it after selling a few parts off it i ended up with a $750 roller. The thing is mint no surface rust and 42,xxx miles.



Then i switched it to 5 lug and put my impala wheels on it after buying new centers for the rims.

 

Oops! Sorry! Edited the mm post. Haha I seen you trailering that imp at the 50's before. Thought that was really cool. Nice rides.

 

my apologies BIGCOWL-IMP for think you were a ford guy. i didnt know you were a bow tie lover. you have a nice collection of cars. i really like what you did to your silvy.

 

BIGCOWL, can you help me out on my questions above? You can get some good deals on Fox rollers...you got a screaming deal.


Those wheels Bogarts or Holeshots?


David

 

Thanks guys...........Ya there Holeshot wheels
Yes i got real lucky with the mustang the guy just had it pianted and he wet sanded about 3/4 of the car and lost interest. When i went and looked at it i could tell the clear coat was pritty thick and new it would turn out nice. I hoped ? When i was there looking at the car he must have had 8-10 calls on the car. So i gave him a deposit and got it the next day. I finished wet sanding it and payed a freind to rub it out and it turned out sweet Paint looks awsome. Its way cleaner then my 95 impala that i did not drive in the winter. But the car had clean ugly maroon interior so thar came out and i bought black piece here and there and have everthing now and looks sweet.

texas94z Thanks.........The siverado is lowered 2 in the front and 4 in the rear.

 

Yes i used the AJE K-member and the AJE th350 trans cross member and Kooks race headers for sbc for mustang and everthing bolted in no problem.

 

UPDATE

I got the motor biult installed and the th350 trans and 5500 converter installed last week end. Worked on it all day today. I did this all today so its still a mess. OH and i can change plugs and plug wires in 20-30 minites tops i love it.

 

Aside from the nitrous, what else has been done to the motor? That is one cool project you have going there.

 

Very cool car.Keep us posted on it.
