well i sold my 1967 to my dad who was going to put the 2.3t i had from a merkur into it, but then FORD went and did it...305 hp 3.7l v6 will now be going into that car as soon as someone wrecks one lol.

I will be up downgrading from the mach 1. no she isn't being sold just stored for later use. I will be buying a 2.3l ranger 95-98 manual. That 2.3 will promptly be pulled and sold or made into a desk weight lol.
i will be snapping pictures of the merkur and the motor tomorrow...would've had it pulled and torn down already but job hunting put a halt to that. my goal is to have it pulled and torn down by the end of next week. the next step is to buy a set of forged pistons as the rods in the 2.3t are to to somewhere over 500rwhp since they came forged from the factory.

the turbo will serve as a conversation piece in my office while i will be purchasing a Hx35 holset from a 5.9l turbo diesel (OH NOES a dodge product). will have a custom header made for it. to start getting it installed and running will be my main goal. once i get all the kinks worked out then i will be working on the transmission a t-5 gonna find a used one somewhere since i can't find any info on how to beef up an auto strong enough to hold my powa!!!

once the trans is done then i will be upgrading the injectors and fuel system. watch close as a sleeping giant is made.
