So i finished everything on the car today. All the is left is Oil, coolant and PS fluid. Burp the coolant system and get the timing right and Ill be on the streets. We have ice and everything right now so its hibernating but ready to come out.

Ive got an ear to ear smile now seeing all the dash lights light up and knowing its the little details left and I can drive it again :)

Yea I have a build thread but this was a diversion from the build.

This motor has ported GT40 (not P) heads and a Ported HO intake with a TFS stage 1 cam and FRPP 1.7 RRs

Congrats! Would love to see this thing out and about sometime. Looks like its time to go shopping for an explorer intake setup and get rid of that awful restrictive intake.

That intake is ported (lower anyways) and Im in the process of getting a Cobra intake and sending it out to get completely ported.

Oh and Ill hit you up as soon as this crap on the roads is gone and I can take it out without getting the metal eating salt all over it.

Your right. I didn't look close enough and have to much beer in me to make any good judgement. Still looks good though.
