Nice swap.... good luck tomorrow.

 

I couldn't get the damn pics to work Someone host and post!

BTW - I think it's "bastardizing" to do inter-racial motor swaps myself, BUT on the other hand, when it's done right, and with an LSX Motor Combo... I'm pretty willing to forgive Those LSX Motor's are pretty ridiculous! And at least we know the Car is cool; it's still a Fox Stang!

I like it! I can't wait to see how it runs, which I'm sure it will haul some ass!

 

you know Rich we should just trade and get it over with

 

ill trade you a nova if you have one laying around


some pics from today

 

I saw the pics on another site yesterday......cool setup, but I do agree, I could never understand why hot rodders with '32 Ford put a small block Chevy in them. I have no doubt this thing will haul ass.....nice work, looks like an easier project than a 4 valve swap.

 

looks good man repd

 

First pass was 12.52@112.62 with a dismal 1.978 sixty footer. i flashed the converter and the car spun pretty bad but recovered with a quick pedal.

Second pass i rolled into the throttle softly, 1.828 60' with no wheelspin and it went 12.12@113.33

I had a friend make the third pass so i could take a video and listen to how the borlas sound. i noticed in the burnout it is just one-wheel-peeling so i will have to put new clutches in the diff. he went 12.24@112.62.

this is on 235/60/15 bfg drag radials. so getting the sixty footer down to the 1.7s it should be an 11 second car i drive everyday. nothing stellar but its fun nonetheless

My friend has a very nice 04 cobra that the clutch is going out of. he couldnt get it into 3rd or 4th for shit. he went 12.80@102 so once he gets it shifting it should haul ass - it dynos at 450/480.

His dad has a new SRT8 Jeep that went 13.7s on his only pass. not bad for a heavy ass truck with a driver that doest race at all.

all in all a very nice day.


Thanks for all the props, if new how to return reps i would

 

At the bottom left corner of every post there are little icons click on the thing that looks like scales (in between the TR icon and triangle/ bad post icon) . And give them the correct rep for that post.





P.S.
You car is bad ass i have a 88 Chevy nova i'll trade you, it my look like an 88 Mustang coupe but its really a rare Nova

 

sounds like a good day Rich. You should be able to get that in to the 11's easy.
