Default '92 coupe 427w project.

This was listed in another forum, but as I'm an attention whore, I decided to repost it here.

Bought this car off of a forum member back in '06. As purchased it was a 4 cylinder converted to a 302. It had chrome cobra Rs and leather '95 seats.

As she was when I brought her home:



Shortly after getting her home, I did the following upgrades


Suspension
  • MM FL subframes
  • MM strut tower
  • UMI upper/lower torque box plates
  • Eibach drag springs with rear airbag
  • Pro3i upper and lower CAs
  • '93gt front spindles with 5 lug powerslot rotors
  • '95 rear axle, 31 spline axles, FMS 3.73 gears, 5 lug discs
  • Weld Prostars: 15x4 with skinnies, 15x8 275/50 M/T ET Streets
  • Strange 10 way adjustable shocks/struts
After suspension upgrades and Prostars with Big'n'littles


Vid with stock headers, 2.5" Mac offroad H, 2 chamber flows, and 2.5" flowmaster tailpipes.

Let if like that for a little bit and then had Chad at Racing Innovations upgrade the fuel system

Fuel System
  • Custom fuel rails
  • FMS 42lb injectors
  • Glenn's Performance 950hp system
    • Street sleeper sumped tank
    • Dual Walbro 255lph inlines
    • NHRA approved fuel lines
Fuel system installed by Chad at www.racinginnovationsfl.com




I decided to go 351 stroker for the motor. I waffled a lot on exactly what I wanted to do and how much money I wanted to dump into this project. Originally I was going to go budget with a '69-'74 block with cast internals and Procomp heads. After purchasing the Procomp 210s and talking to my engine builder, I decided to commit a little more money, but since I already had the procomps I made the decision (Bad or not, we'll see in the end) to have them worked by Greg at XSRcylinderheads.

Engine
  • Dart Sportsman Block 4.125 bore
  • Procomp 210s now 215s with 64cc chambers worked by XSRcylinderheads
  • FMS victor jr intake converted to EFI also worked by XSRcylinderheads
  • Camshaft innovations custom hyd. roller (.623/.609 236.11/253.9 109/114)
  • Eagle forged internals 0 balanced
  • JE SRP 19cc dished pistons (10.419:1 compression)
  • Stainless 1.6 roller rockers
  • PMAS 95mm "Velocity" mass air meter
  • Anderson 4" powerpipe
  • Accufab 90mm TB
  • FMS 42lbs injectors
  • Canton 7qt oil pan
Exhaust
  • Mac 1 3/4" x 3" long tubes
  • Mac 3" Prochamber
  • Dynomax 3" ultra flow turndowns
Pile'o'parts

Motor arrived from Rick at www.rnhperformance.com



At this point, I just need to get all the stuff over to Chad so he can get started on the install. Will post up more info as things progress.

Planning on nitrous eventually, but going to need to spend a bunch of money in other areas first. Transmission first I guess.
