Looks good and your winter should be fun putting that turbo on. How do you like your shifter handle? I'm debating on getting one.

Those rear wheels are bad ass. What are the specs on the rims and tires. As far as what are you thinking, your thinking in the right direction. That coupe is going to be nasty. Good luck with it.

T76 on a 302? Kinda big dont ya think?

 

[Duece Bigalow]

Once you go turbo, you wont go back

 

[25thmustang]

Not sure you can run your wheels and tires with coil overs...

room to grow down to the road

76 will be fine but its capible of making way more power then the block can handle. 25th is right dont think you'll be running those front wheels with coilovers but I suppose anything is possible. Looks nice, werent you selling that fuel system on corral?

He is allways selling stuff on Carolina rides. I think he is trying to sell some turbo stuff on there right now.

I've run both 17x9's and 18x9's with mine, it's got coil overs. I run the 99+ brakes with good clearance between the wheel and coil over.

Which brand coil over do you run? I asked the dude at MMR about his and he said he has never heard of an issue with their coil overs and foxes with 9" wheels up front. Ackbar said on turbomustangs that his UPR coil over kit he just bought has about 1/4" clearance up front with his 9" wheels.

Good luck with the project, that's a nice car. You'll love the turbo.

 

[bentley429]

Good to know about the coilovers and 9" wheels even though my car will prob never have 17's. Well, maybe?

 

[91svtcoupe]

where to start?

Coilovers...I done a little reasearch on this and my coilovers are the old company X2C Motorsports....same as MMR? not sure but thats what I was told...also told only a few companies making Coilovers had problems with the 9" wheel up front? we shall see. I am sure I can work something out. Running 95 Spindles up front maybe a spacer will help?

the rear tires: 17x10.5 315/35/17 tire

T76 turbo...the car is a stroker? Not sure if its a 306/331/347 Car Made 355 rwhp no tune, never put a timing light on it. 359 tq like it is. Yea its a stock block so I know I will be limited and not sure how long it will last? I have be really thinking about a block upgrade as well. Motor has 1" steel Gridle, Eagle H-beam rods, Eagle Crank, Victor JR. heads.

Fuel system...I thought I found another system with lines already together so I wouldn't have to do the cutting and Fittings so I put it up for sale and decided that I would be better off keeping what I got...it was a Feeler Ad....

Always selling stuff...Got to trade keeps me going and supports the hobby somewhat, however now I am in pretty deep....lol


thanks for your support looking forward to it.......

 

[ryan218]

me too man! when are you starting your build? i just got the "eye candy" piece of my build today as we are going to call it! im exicted.

your car has quickly become one of my favoirties! love what your doing with it. and i LOVEEEEEE how you kept the black body moldings and didnt paint them body color like EVERYONE does.

 

[GroverDill]

Cool that it's a stroker, best of luck. I feel sorry for your block if you are making 350+ N/A

I run the UPR's.
