don't know how well these illustrate what I did, but I'm using the moroso 7qt pan and pick up with it, with the girdle, pro tray and pick up a stock pan was not sufficient.....I had to dimple as it was the moroso pick up and re heat it and bend to fit just right, then set the pick up clearance, took 2 hrs to get it just right

sorry to change the subject but...

Mike, whats your exhaust set up on the 4 eye?

sounds killer

 

for now i have Lakewood Control Arms, and Strange 10 ways in the back, soon to come will be a full PARacing Tubular front suspension setup.
the TFS 3 would have been too big for my flat top pistons and definitely too much cam for the total package.

i will only be spinning about 6500, so if you do the math a 600 is about right. atleast until i save up for a 750 double pumper.

my god i hope so. the break in period will be the hardest time ever though. i havent been able to drive it or even start it since the beginning of november.

including the price of the car...probably around $5k
im pretty good at finding good deals.

i bought the engine as a rotating shortblock minus the cam. so the girdle and oil pickup were already on the engine. not sure what p/n's to use.
everybody has been saying that, but i kinda like them. it sets it apart from every other fox on the road. i dont want the overdone cobra look, or even the bss fanboy look. gotta do some shopping to find just the right wheel. looks are the last thing on my list right now anyway.

you talking to me? im running MAC 1-3/4" LT's and a 3" pro-chamber into 3" pro-dumps.

 

engine is in, flywheel, clutch and trans go in tonight. right after dinner.
looking like a 2am break-in to me.

 

fired my HCI up at 3am.

in my garage.

right under my parents bedroom...

i miss those days

 

wow you only spent 5 k with the car included u are good at finding good deals lol

 

MAC..

 

Oh dear, parts choosing based on the ole antiquated formula....where do I start to shoot that myth back to the past??? care to see numerous examples that poke holes in that theroy?? like a 289 with a 950 that is totally steetable?? lol the ole formula of rpm and CID = carb size

 

yeah the formula is more of a general rule of thumb. gives a baseline to start at.

but hey the car is together now...and it runs. this is the first car i have ever build and i was so nervous. im uploading the break-in video to youtube now, so i'll post the link when its done.

 

oooohhhh, videos are always good!!!
