400M mustang project progress/update

~The Jester~ · 04-15-2005, 09:23 PM

Dude, if you're interested, I have a KILLER "recipe" for a 400! I had planned to build this motor for my truck, but have since sold it. On the bright side, I have ALL the particulars for a budget monster 400! Lemme know, I'll post the recipe for ya!

That'd be awesome, NOONE has done it yet (to my knowledge) and how ******* kewl would it be to take the "boat anchor" motor and make it RIP in a Stang!

Yeah sure, i'd be interested in what your recipe was. Hopefully i can get everything together and running in a short time span, but the chances of it being complete to my satisfaction in a "short" time span is unlikely. Probably 6 months to a year i'll be done.

Update: 05/11/05
I obtained an 8.8" rear axle from a junkyard and am in the process of installing 4.10 gears in it and rebuilding the traction-lock carrier.

I'll get some pictures as i go along.

I also have granatelli upper and lower control arms to install when i put the 8.8" in.
