This is from the ad when I found it: <img src="http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2054/4441/5134720005_large.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />First photo shoot: <img src="http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2054/4441/5134720019_large.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2054/4441/5134720001_large.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />At the time it had a stock bottom end with edelbrock performer heads, F303, performer RPM intake, the vortech, mac shorties, o/r H-pipe, mac catback, 3.73s, and tremec T3550.  24# injectors with a C&L maf and vortech FMU.  Some gauges and billet stuff in the interior and that’s about it.  It had issues with loading up on fuel and it would run on the hot side. Found the loading up problem was a bad fuel pressure regulator was dumping fuel in through the vacuum line into the upper.  So basically un-metered fuel was going through the upper intake.  Replaced that.  Got a fluidyne radiator and that solved the heat issues.  Also put in a manual fan switch.Drove it like that for a while just enjoying the car.  I started to get blowby issues from the tired bottom end.  I had a breather on the valve cover that was just constantly spewing oil out.  So I ordered the following: DSS 331 super pro bullet level 20 short block Forged D.S.S. Pro-Lite Pistons forged D.S.S. H-beam rods cast stroker crank Cometic .050 head gaskets D.S.S. windage tray D.S.S. Main support girdle D.S.S. 7qt. oil pan with FMS High Volume Oil Pump Anderson B21 cam installed 42# injectors 80mm mass air fidanza flywheel Promotion built mcleod clutch 26-spline upgrade for the tranny All kinds of ARP hardwarePart accumulation: <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0977.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0978.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0976.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0975.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0973.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN0969.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Tearing the motor out: <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r282/toolstang/Mustang/DSCN1057.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2054/4441/5134720070_large.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
