    To me carbs are easy and the EFI/computer tuning is the voodoo magic. I have to learn it for this car though as I am keeping the EFI/computer control on it. I do have a completely different computer I will be installing though. This 95 was the OBD1 and requires a tune to burnt on a chip then...

    Ok, ya I know what PI is on the mod motors. You typed "psi" so I was confused. I don't mess with the mod motors though.

    I know about the LS stuff, the glide trans and all that. Don't care, it's not Ford. This isn't a mod motor either, it's an old school push rod 5.0 roller cam motor. I am guessing by "psi motor" you mean am I throwing boost at it. Not yet. This thread is missing a lot of previously added updates...

    Hey Fellas! I know I haven't been around/posting much for a while but I have still been lurking in the background. This car is still taking up all my funding and what time I have to play. We are about to be on the road again so I thought I would update this thread and let you all know where...

    That is the plan for this car. We made a deal,he gets to use the car for school/work and what ever as long as he maintains acceptable grades(doesn't need straight A's)and stays off of drugs/alcohol. If he Graduates with the same stipulations,I will sign the car over to him. In the mean time,we...

    Well,the fun is over for while. My son wanted to go cruise around Monday afternoon and take some pics of the car. So I took him for a ride to show him a few interesting places he hasn't seen before and get some pics. We were having a great time until on drive home. The car suddenly dropped a...

    Track Time! Friday night was finally the big night,first run at the track! I wasn't sure if we were going to go since it looked like rain all day long. About 6pm I checked their message board and it said they were racing so we decided to get ready and head up there. By the time we we arrived...

    The Fun Finally Begins As of my last post I thought I would have had some fun miles put the car but as it is just yesterday we were able to get it legal and tagged. We spent the first Friday after that post going over everything making sure it all worked so we could pass inspection. First I...

    Yeah it growls alright. Those Flowmaster 40's are too loud for my taste but my son loves them. The gear drive is louder than expected too since I ordered the "quiet" version. But then again I did not use a name brand set. The noisy versions are obnoxiously loud. It probably won't be much...

    Finally,Ready to Run!!! This whole project has been taking longer and costing more than I expected but that's about how all of my projects seem to go. It's time to finish up this part of the project and get her rolling down the road! The only big hurdle left,is to hope the new radiator fits...

    UPDATE TIME AGAIN! Time is flying by and I just can't keep up. We've got a lot done on the car but I haven't had enough time to sort the pics so I can update you. Finally here is some updates. With the trans all taken care of it's time to get back to the engine problems. If you remember in...

    Hey now,don't start that crap! I have enough second guess thoughts in my head about things as it is. Between extra parts in the kit and me having 2 transmissions apart at the same time............ I think I need to start over LOL

    I can't,it's not here yet. I just found out yesterday that WoodiE didn't have my addess so he could ship it.

    Time for another update! As with everything I seem to do,it takes longer than I think and finding that extra un-planned for time is tough. Throw in a few problems and well....anyway here we go again. The build is finally complete but it wasn't without several problems and set-backs. I took a...

    UPDATE TIME! Anyone think I forgot about this project? LOL As mentioned above I don't have a garage to work in so I didn't get to do anything to the car over the winter. What I did do was a lot digging around on eBay and craigslist and started collecting parts for the project. I was able to...

    When they tore up the front tire,they did a number on the wheel too. While cleaning out the car,we came up with around $7 is change and a hand full of tools. For Christmas I found this tranny on craigslist,out of 95 GT and supposed to be good for $150. So I picked it up but I may rebuild...

    Father-Son 1:1 Mustang GT Project

    Since my wife doesn't read this forum I can tell you the real plans for this car. My son and I are big drag racing fans so we are going to add everything we can to the car to make it faster for the next couple of years. So the after market parts will stay and whatever else I can find will be...
