427carguy Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Today I made a top mount for the blower so the blower itself is mounted solid next step is to make a new alternator adjuster and start making manifolds Modified exhust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
427carguy Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 Ah not alot to add on this update, The blower and carb are at the engineers getting a small alloy manifold made between them, I sent to the experts so that it can be as small as possible so I dont have wheel clerance issue as it is going out the guard. I have put a mk2 escort strut in the right hand side as it has bigger disks and brake but im still on the hunt for a left hand strut. Also bought a shiney bit of metal for the center consol dont know if i will actully use it tho Thought i waould also add a couple of pics of the old mans car first is performance headers made for a 62 galaxie This stock looking shifter is now hooked to a stright cut dog box with a sequencial shift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
