Not too much to update.

Got 3:55's and j&m lrc's from rich!! Thanks again dude!!

Haven't had much time to work on the car lately but with what little time I've had ive stripped the rear end down and cleaned up a few spots under the car.

Picked up a new teamz k

Dropped off the factory termi hood inserts at a machine shop for a little special mission!!

And then yesterday made a road trip to pick up my new to me 95 351w

That will be a strong motor for sure. My good friend has a sn95 with bronco 351w with ford 9 inch in rear and arp studs and bolts some aftermarket iron heads and a turbo and runs 9s and pulls wheels like crazy of the ground. He is making stupid power through a t5 trans too and his bronco motor is still running strong your car will be a beast for sure bro. Love the work and cant wait to see this beast get its wings. keep up the great work man.

I was going to go with a 351 but I didn't wont to have to change up some of my parts and get a custom hood. But what intake are you planning on running the 351w lowers are stupid expensive now a days that fit a cobra upper. Are you going to go with a trickflow or aftermarket elbow? Just curious.

Thanks man!! It will be a beast for sure!!

Going to run either a carb intake and convert it to efi with an elbow or Professionals spyder intake with an elbow. The termi hood gives about 1" extra clearance and I'll be using solid mounts that drop 3/4" and I'm looking at possibly moving motor back 1". There's another car that did that and it all sits under a stock hood so I should be good to go.

Your buddies build is pretty sweet!! I see he switched to a th400 before he ran it turbo'd. I was wondering how he put that kind of power thru a t5!!! Lol

Started tearing down the new to me motor. Turns very smoothly by hand with no grinding or catching.

Motor has never been apart and the factory cross thatching still looks good

This block came with a factory oil cooler. Didn't know any of the 351w motors did. I'll probably remove it. If I do run a cooler it will probably be one with a finned cooler.

Some of the new suspension goodies. Still waiting on a few back ordered parts that are suppose to be here late this week. Then I can actually start reassembly of the suspension and get this back to being a rolling chassy as opposed to a jack stand king!!!!

Currently painting the new struts the same color. Thinking this will be my new color to break up all the black.

Nothing too shiny, polished, or chrome under my hood or on my suspension.

Even the polished stainless valve covers I got are goin to get hydro dipped along with my intercooler piping when I get to those pieces.

Shoot! This is lookin good!

It will look a lot better once I can actually get some time to work on it some more!!! Lol

Then it will just kinda sit for a longtime while I try and find either a pot of gold at then end of a rainbow or somehow guess the right numbers to the lottery so that I can afford to get my new motor built and order a transmission that is gonna be able to hold up to what I'm gonna throw at it.

So any updates on this thing? lol

I had started working on assembling the new k-member when we realized that we have to do some modifications to the a-arms before hand. We actually just picked up a new spool of welding wire so we can get back on it soon.

Work has been screwing me around the last couple months which has greatly affected my car money but hopefully that will be changing soon.

So not really much to update. I'll try and post some pics of the a-arms after we finish modifying them and getting the k together.
