Steve-Oh Posted November 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 It is not, forgot my laptop. However they are in and fitting pretty good! They do fit very tight on the passenger side though. Driver side is like a glove. Plus, the FRPP heads have multiple header holes so they made the flanges use the outside holes so I can easily fit a nice ratcheting wrench to tightened the bolts. Another added bonus is I don't think these hang down nearly as far as my BBK's did on the new motor. Dat spacing though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Wow, that's probably the most room between a primary and a header bolt I've ever seen. Those are some damn sexy headers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks man, still need to make the rest of it! Not sure how I'm going to route / fab this but imma wing it! They bay came out okay! I didn't finish it so I just ground the welds best I could and painted it with a rattle can. Doesn't look terrible but it doesn't look finished also. Thanks though! It's been a rough couple years for this car but it'll come together soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve-Oh Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Got the exhaust rigged up for now with 2.5" pipe. Once I get time I have 3" tubing sitting here to make something a little bit better. I'm still using the old Flowmaster cat-back I got from 2008, sounds like shit and is all rusted out. However, I still made it work: Untitled by whereamioo7, on Flickr Untitled by whereamioo7, on Flickr Untitled by whereamioo7, on Flickr Once I figured out the engine builder didn't stab the dizzy at TDC things went smoothly and it started right up like nothing. Set the timing and she runs really well! Was very excited to hear it finally run. Got the front end back on, filled the trans fluid and took it for a little drive down the street. Left my dad a present in the middle of the street, couldn't resist.

Steve-Oh Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 All in all it was pretty easy to do the wiring. I have a couple of gremlins lurking that I'll work out prior to mustang week but shouldn't be too bad, all related to the two boxes I moved into the pass. side fender.

Good info! I'm gonna grab one later this week. Only one more weekend left!! I'm not sure what your parking situation is down there but we don't have enough room for all the cars plus the tow vehicles and trailers. I found a place to store the Jeep and trailer for the week so if you wanna pass that info around, I posted it in the MW thread on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve-Oh Posted October 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 I think I posted a few pages back of when I test fitted the TSW wheel I ordered. I was able to confirm fitment and struck a deal with them on the rest. They were supposed to arrive prior to MW but they came a week after. Oh well, the rest are finally here! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-Oh Posted October 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Aside from that, I've been driving it around. No too far since it's still not running 100% but the bugs will be worked out in time. The Jeep was down for a couple weeks so she sat outside under a cover. Luckily we had a nice stretch of weather so no rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my pace, probably not until 3 years from now I'm trying to find tire deals since it's the end of the season. I don't want to put them on now since it's just going to sit for the winter. Ideally they'll be on prior to the start of next season. I'm trying to buy a new truck and car before next spring so we'll see how that all works out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to order tires for them, was going to wait on the spring. I was having too much fun taking it out, doing burnouts and not caring about the tires! They should be on starting spring. I actually took it to a friends shop the other day, needed to meet everyone to work on the trucks. I go to leave and I'm like "Do you have angry neighbors?" He was a little confused and then the lightbulb went off. With approval I pull out on to the main street with the intentions of just letting it rip throw first and second. Got carried away and held the brake in second, made lots of smoke and a nice set of black lines down his street 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
