Default Hi all! Newb here...

Just wanted to say hey!
My name is Al, I live in Houston.
I've been looking for a Mustang board that will be help in an upcoming project I am going to do.
I've looked around, and this place looks good. So here I am.

Hi everyone!

Hello and welcome to Mustang Works. If you need any help with the project, I live in Baytown and am always looking for something constructive to do with my time. Where about in H-town do you live?

Everyone, thanx for the welcome!

cyberstang, and bigred, I live in SW(Hillcroft & Richmond). But, in a couple months I am probably gonna move to Katy, or somewhere near there. I used to work in Houston, but I transfered to Sealy.

Right now, I'm waiting to move so I have a garage to start my project. I still have to do a little research, which is part of the reason I registered here. I'de love any help you guys can give. Especially seeing as how I know absolutely nothing about Ford V8's! It's gonna be fun anyways.
Tomorrow, I'm driving back to So Cal to visit family for a couple weeks. While I'm there I am going to hit a shop to get some more info on what I'm building.
Hopefully when I get back, I can start making a list of everything I'm gonna need. I know off the bat, I am looking for a complete drivetrain out of a Mustang(Engine to rear end). I think I have a line on an '89 5.0, somewhere out in Kemah. If not I'll look around for the parts.

This is gonna sound like a stupid question, but who has built a carb'd 302 from the ground up? I'll be looking for a nice combo for street, with a decent amount of horsepower, but still reliable. If all goes well with this project, next year I want to go psycho!

Once again, thanx for the welcome! And thanx in advance for your guys help!

Later, Al

Where about in SoCal are you goin? There is a guy here on MW, name is Chris aka PKRWUD, he has a shop in Ventura called peckerwoods Pit Stop. He can help you with anything you need. Tell him you are a member here and were referred by us here. If it weren't for him and a few others, I would have gotten frustrated and sold the stang by now. Just a suggestion.

I live right on the border of Katy and Houston. Just off of Barker Cypress. As soon as I get my stang running the way I want her to run, I'm going to take her out to HRP and see what kind of numbers I can pull
