If you don't mind me asking, how much did the terminator swap + install run? Seems like a much cheaper option than built engine + blower.

TTSaleen's Mach 1 Project - This time in Azure Blue!!!
- Thread starter TTSaleen
- Start date
Complete engine/supercharger, T56 transmission, aluminum driveshaft, MGW shifter, RAM clutch, flywheel, stock heat exchanger, stock tanks, cobra alternator, etc. it was $8,500.
Labor is not as easy to figure since I did the install with Caleb.
Figure around $2K at most shops for this swap, but much cheaper if you do some/most of the work yourself.

Few quick updates -
Got my Lethal Performance Division-X return style fuel system with twin 465 pumps and PTFE line so that I can run E85.
Got my Glenn's Performance Cobra fuel tank that has the correct baffle installed and allows my Div-X hat to fit nicely.
Got Caleb to load an E85 tune into my handheld and loaded it into the car.
Almost finished it all today, but started raining and I am working outside in the driveway.
Only thing left to do is to terminate the PTFE fitting and hook to my regulator.
Then set the fuel pressure and fire this baby up on the CORN! :thumbsup:

Yessss
$8500 is relatively cheap too. I've never seen termi swaps go for less than 8k very often. If all you wanted was a built short block and eaton you could do that for much much cheaper
Car is coming along great Ryan!!

Man, I love that blue...
New stock Ford tensioner and Metco brace. A great proven combination that I run on my Cobra.
Almost finished the car up for now. Got a shaker mount coming in next week so that can be reattached.
Dropped car off at Fastlane for the final E85 tune and rearend rebuilt with 3.73 gears.

Got my shaker back on the car today.
There is a guy in Utah that makes a bracket to bolt the shaker to the bottom of the hood. Since my Kennebell 2.6 is bigger than the Eaton, there aren't many ways to get this to fit properly.
I painted it and got it on pretty quickly. Very pleased how this turned out.
Now it looks correct again with the shaker.

That is so awesome! Complete incognito status returned!
Additional airflow in the bay is always nice. Not sure if it flows much but surely at highway speeds it will help vent a lil of the underhood heat.

Looks like a normal day in March, 2 days ago it was 70 degrees.
Lol, your town has all kinds of your cars floating around
Wow I have been slack in updating my car threads on here!
My Mach 1 aka Punisher Jr has been my daily and is quite the fun project car. I love the color, shaker scoop, and of course the terminator power! Haha!
I have powdercoated somethings underhood and the car runs on E85 now.
Plus I added Kooks long tube headers and 3" x-pipe.
It recently made 670rwhp on 19.5# of boost, but I've added 2 more pounds of boost since then going from a 4# lower to a 6# lower.
No dyno numbers yet, but I expect it is now around 690rwhp.
And here's what it looks like with the Bogarts on it.
