Project 302 almost complete

IT'S ALIVE!! Born Sunday November 27, 2005 at 5pm My 302 came to life. The neighbors must of thought a raceway opened up in Cory's Garage cause we broke in the cam using nothing but the headers Ha Ha Ha...We will hopefully have a video of the car running up on the site soon. AGAIN I want to thank Cory and Sean, they are truely the best freinds anyone who is a car nuts needs lol...these guys did a lot and I learned a lot about engines. Thanks fellas...Now I hope the 8in rear hold together with all the horsepower...oh well if and when it goes I'll get a trac loc so when I put in my line lock it will be cool to spin both tires off the rim!! See ya's at the traffic light!!

Yo Steve

good job Yo! LOL

Dad's Fearmont is coming along nicely as we speak. It used to have a fairly quiet exhaust system and teeny 1 1/2" primary headers from Scummit. 331" SBF, RPM heads/intake. We're going to a Vic Jr intake with a Ron's flying toilet methanol injector and dad just ordered the new 1 3/4" headers from Jegs.......yeah, I feel sorry for the neighbors in about a week or so! Thing outta be a bit loud. Went 6.92 best time ever at 101 mph in the 1/8....looking to better that by at least .4. It outta fly! Just hope the ol' man can hang onto it!

Mr. Ed,

I had to get the smaller Mustang II bellhousing so the headers could clear the tranny...Cory just called and said him and Sean went for a joy ride...now I need traction bars they tell me lol....We may be at Fudds Sunday night to celebrate with the car...Pix and Video are comming soon...
