Were getting close and im very excited!
Thanks again to Jim & Nicole at FordStrokers!

Also calling tommorow to order my new custom cam!

+1 on Fordstrokers, I should be receiving my new short block from them first week of May. I talked to both of them on the phone and they're great people to deal with. I would never consider a short block from anyone else!

Here's my 8.8 braced & welded rear-end with all parts coming from Dave @ Team Z Motorsports - Suspension Kits and Components for hardcore Mustangs & more! and all of the assembly and labor coming via Mike @ Late Model Performance & Chassis Dyno Services!!!

Im extremely happy with the service and support provided by both Dave & Mike!

LMAO!
Barring a huge mis-fortune I will be there with the car this year. Whats the dates for it again? June....?

The car will never be 100% racecar as thats not what I want or even like.
Can I drive it to Florida? Yes
Will I? No as no a/c for that long trip would get old super fast!

Thanks for the support guys and hopefully some of you guys can make it out to Pinks All Out in Norwalk OH for this event on August 27-28

keeping track... about a 4 hour drive but I've been there before.... sounds like fun!!

Availibility of the crank that we need was the major one. It sucks but it is what it is and I need this project rolling as I need time to get this thing together, tuned, and track tested.
