you should put the underglow back on

congrats man, that is a super clean motor! what did you have to do to make the gauges and speedo work?

Exceptional!

congrats...you best be in millbury on wednesday so i can drive it...i mean see it

thats clean looking....

lookin great man! awesome job!

Nicely done...

Not to nit pick, but that air cleaner filter looks like you found it at the bottom of a lake.

The oil presure and temperature sensors are both one wire sensors so I just moved them from the old motor to the new one and they screwed right in. The speedo has a gear driven sensor in the transmission so that still worked. And the other two gauges weren't connected to the engine at all. So the only gauge that doesn't work right now is the Tach. One of my friends has a tach he is getting rid of that he is gonna give me so that'll fix that and then all the gauges will work.


Ya. It's the only air filter I have right now. It's not that dirty, it's just dirty looking...if you know what I mean. I'm gonna get a K&N once I get some money together.

No heat?

There's heat. No AC though. Heater hoses or on the left of the carb

nicely done man, welcome to high-torque-poor-weight-distributionsville! (aka land of a thousand 8cyl mustangs)

nice work i remember my first 4 cyl conversion fox i did, fun fun. make sure you upgrade that rear end the 7.5 only stand up to a v-8 for so long

success! now go burn the tires off of it... woot!!

yeah, and i may have an 8.8 that needs rebuilding for you on the cheap pretty soon!
