Picked up some wheels over the weekend. Also have 2.25" lowering spring to put on it.





Kinda cold this morning. But im so far south that this is all the "snow" we have to deal with down here.


I'll post some more pictures once the wheels are on the car :)

old vs. new. Love the difference.







Going to finish putting on the fuel rail later today and do some more of the wiring. Can't wait to get the lowering springs on it.

Nice lookin wheels, I've ran those on my 95 they were staggerd though.

mine are staggered too. They are 17s in the front and 18s in the rear. The guy i bought them from just has really tall tires in the front but they are brand new so i left them on there.

No plans for boost? I don't know what those words mean. You should always plan for boost.

^^correct. My windows poor when it rains because the body of this car doesnt line up at all. Maybe boost on the next one. Maybe ill find those two missing cylinders also XD

Just got through painting the windstar intake and putting my spark plugs in. Upper intake gasket should be in tomorow so hopefully i can get it on and start running my vacuum lines and get my throttle body put on to mock up the throttle cable. Getting close :)

From a few days ago.


add belt, radiator, fan, ect.



I have to cut the iacv and block it off on the windstar intake to clear my stock hood. i will be relocating the iacv soon.




This hole at the bottom will house a fitting for a line to feed my iacv.


That line will run through these passages




I still have to go out and buy the fitting and some vacuum lines. Will post more pics as I progress.

Hey man, I'm definitely not hating. I love your ingenuity for relocating the IAC. Clever. Looking good, though. You should take the Ford oval off your rrunk and use it to block off the IAC on your intake.
