Hi everyone, I am back in the UK after 10 years and am going to import my tbird next year. So far I have redone the interior with a 6 pt roll bar, seats from a 2005 Mustang, rear seat delete, custom door panels, and redyed all the plastic pieces black. The suspension is nearly the same as a Fox bodied Mustang so it now has a Maximum Motorsport tubular kmember and a fully adjustable coilover front suspension. The motor is the 2.3 pinto motor. The shortblock was bored .030 and everything is balanced. The head has been ported and bigger valves with a roller cam.
I still have a ton to do including subframes, rear coilovers with torque arm and watts link. I have an HE-351 Holset turbo to boost her to 30psi, but need to get the intercooler and methanol injection plus the megasquirt ECU done. My goal is a nice road racing street car with 350-375 hp. This is a link to my build'
