So I've been off the list for over a year......Bought a Porsche and playing with that sucked up most of my time and mod money lately......set the Mustang aside for a while....but now I'm back and I am finally motivated to pull my Mustang out of storage and finish it......all that's left is ordering a new radiator (Ron Davis) for the new motor and R&R ing the motor to install the 427 Stroker I've had sitting for over a year......
The motor that I initially built and installed in the car is as follows.....
Rebuilt 302 flat top pistons / Cast crank
Edelbrock Alloy heads
Strong cam...don't have the specs handy
Edelbrock 600 carb and performer manifold
JBA shorties
MSD, Accell
FMS Valve covers, etc....
The motor sounds AWESOME, runs well...had it on a dyno and it made aprox 180hp at the wheels...but the carb came off a junker and has never even been adjusted.....the consensus during the dyno runs was there was a LOT of HP to be had with tuning......but it runs just fine.....
I've driven less than 3000 miles since this motor was completely rebuilt.....I want to sell it "In the car" meaning ......I know it's worth a lot more when someone can see it and drive it...vrs buying a motor that's sitting in the corner of the garage. This is one of the things that has sorta kept me from getting on with the engine swap...
Here's my question.....
What do you guys think it's worth? In the car......running and driving great...vrs out of the car?
Thanks
Chris
