  1. It's On Now

    Well, I've done it! Orderd a MKIV complete kit. devivery est. 3-3-12. Going street version, undercar exhaust w/electric cut-outs, no scoop, quick install roll bar, for the occasional track romp! :cool: Tonnaeu & soft top. No stripes, old english white, just like the 66/427 side oiler I got to play in back in high school. Never got over that car! No side oiler though:( just don't have the cash! Will most likely go with the new Ford Racing 363cid short block with AFR 205 heads, carburator; and ...

  2. Fuel tank, fuel lines and brakes

    Last week received fuel fittings and was able to finish fuel related items all the way from fuel tank to engine bay.

  3. Ford Anti-Slosh Module

    I created a document for those who want to use the Ford anti-slosh module to prevent the fuel gauge needle from bouncing around. It also has part numbers for electrical connectors to replace the existing connector and use a plug in.

  4. More drilling almost done!

    I am drilling away on my panels. I am down to just the trunk area. Next I am planning my attack on running brake lines and fuel lines.
    I ordered a 3 cylinder cnc reservoir setup from Fortes and am still debating upgrading the stock gas tank to a Boyds tank. My tank has some fitment issues.
    Best of luck to all the other builders out there, I hope to have some good photos coming soon!

  5. #99 Lives!

    We did the 1st startup of #99 today and I'm a happy camper. It was almost anti-climactic as we primed the fuel system (old school carbadrooler) with a primer bulb from an outbooard motor fuel tank, fixed a couple of minor leaks, gave it a couple of good accelerator pump shots, and she fired right off.

    The Wheeler Power 347 sounds pretty stout (dyno'd @ 425HP/430lbs-ft @ 5000rpm. I think this thing is going to be scary fast.

    No gokarting as the brakes weren't quite ...
