Default RE: bring this 89 gt convert back to life

Dash install is not supposed to be all that hard, just kinda tedious
you have to trim about 4" off the back and make some custom brackets.
Not sure how hard the electrical side is, still trying to find info on that, but supposed is not hard either.
you can find used dash and center console from junk yards for about $500
The inside door handle gets covered up so you have to move it or just
remove it and install some electric door poppers with a push button on the dash.

Trickflow makes EFI intake manifold, if you get TrickFlow TW heads you
will need different pushrods for them. Stock cam would be ok, but for less
than $200 I would upgrade to the TrickFlow stage 1 cam designed for their heads.
better rockers would be good idea too for another $200

set-up I want

351W
TrickFlow TW heads
"f" cam
DSS main girdle support
GT-40 5.8L intake ( off Lightning truck )
24-30lbs injectors
Long tube headers
custom chip
Kennebell blowzilla s/c @ 10psi

T-5 super alloy trans ( $1,000 )
aluminum drive shaft
3.73 gears
31 spline axles

1993 Cobra full disk brake conversion


76mm Mass air would be better or even 80mm, you cant have too big when it comes to mass air meters
