hi everyone, i just found this site and couldn't be more excited. it has everything i meed, and tons of people that are a lot smarter than i am. anyways, i am doing a pro-touring 66 mustang fastback. here is what i have so far
351C-too much to list
t-5-will blow up soon after first drive
built 8"-yes 8 inch, its light as hell, and all the components are the best, so it wont go until the t-5
im running the bullit mustang rims, 17x8 front and back. its harder than it sounds in a 66
right now i am in the process of doing a full front coilover setup, and a tri 4 bar for the rear. full length frame, all that. the front will be billet upper and lower arms(aluminum) and the spindle will also be a custom billet piece(aluminum if its strong enough. I am making a custom subframe that repositions the lower arms, and acts as a rack mount. i could even move the engine back if i wanted.
anyways, those are my plans, here are some pictures of the car right now. i will soon get some screen shots if the arms i am designing. the forum is open to give ideas, the more input i get, the better it will turn out.
