Default New Project.

Well I change my mind alot and been talking about doing a BB sn95, a ford powered k5 blazer... another ranger.. Well I've made up my mind its def gonna be another stang, either a sn95 or a new edge depending on what kind of deals I can find. I;ll probably be looking for a blown engine v6 so I can get it cheap as long as there aren't serious rust issues with it. I will be going with a big inch stroker/carb setup and an auto so the old lady can drive it. I've been researching setups and I think its gonna be a 427w with a nice set of AFR heads and the nastiest cam I can run with it still be streatable. Hoping to make about 500rwhp and run either a built c4, or a built AOD but still need to make my mind up on that. Within the next six months I will be hoping to pick up the chasis for the build so I will keep a nice project thread going once I get it, future job may sidetrack me but the good old state budget problems will probably continue for another 8-12 months.

Go with a New Edge chassis. I think that'd have a coolness factor over an SN95.

Thats what I was thinking because they never came with a pushrod, a sn95 with the setup most people prob think its just a carbed 94 or 95.
