70 Fastback: Project "On Call"

[clevorguy]

I work a lot of OT, always taking on call shifts. Fitting name since all that money goes to this.

Engine:
Dart 9.5 sportsman 4.125 stroked to a 438. CHI 225 heads and intake.
AJE k-member/coilovers with Koni adjustables.
TCP G-link, double adjustable coilovers.
Promotion upgraded TKO600

Many more pics can be found on my site: http://www.threeblade.com

I started this in Feb of this year, over 200 hours into it so far. 99% done by me.

Started out as this:









As it sits now:

Sweet project!!! Good to see another stanger on here. 3V heads!!! Oh snap! Just drove an '07 with intake and exhaust, love that engine! Post lots of pics man! Good luck with the project.

[clevorguy]

Thanks!

These heads are canted valve/cleveland style heads. Still a 2 valve head. They just name this style head 3V.

That's cool! I dig the wheels. What size and brand/model? Look sort of like the 03/04 Cobra with 10.5" aftermarket wides...?

Sorry, just saw your website. Answered most of my questions.

[1badchevelle]

Looking real nice

[clevorguy]

Yep.

Wheel Replicas....they are super cheap.

17x9 17x10.5 03 cobra deep dish.

I bought them initially as something to hold me over until I invest in higher quality. But, I freakin love the look of these wheels and don't plan on upgrading now.

Man, I'm diggin the look on that car. Very nice wheel selection, and brakes. Yum.

What sort of power are you looking to make with that setup?

[CruizinKev]

nice project!

[ccobra70]

man I am glad to see onother 70 being done,, those welds look better than some pros Ive seen very nice work..I am curious to see how that 3.89 ring gear works for you b/c I have the same gear and the same trans with my 427 in my 70 coupe and I keep being told that the first gear in it is going to be very short lived almost worthless,,, anyway nice build good luck keep the pics coming

[SVTforme]

Interesting project. Is the front suspension direct from AJE racing (k member, spindles, control arms etc.)?

Another Good Looking Mustang.. :D

Depending on how crazy I get with the cam, 600-700 will be a good ballpark.

True true, but with the power I plan on making, I'm not sure what gear would be long lived.

What is your 427 setup? What kind of power?

I bought the AJE stuff through CPR. www.cprstreetmachines.com

[clevorguy]

I have a AGR cobra rack coming in a couple weeks, once I get that and get the steering together I'll be putting down some lizardskin followed by wiring.

Then the driveline can start going in. Hopefully in a couple months I can have it on the road. Thanks for all the compliments guys.

very nice car and combo

i built the same 438 with ron sharp ported afr 225's. i feel like the heads held the car back but i did run a 9.60 on pump gas and way to fast on the bottle and race gas.

that was one fun car. 91 coupe that ran 8's and was street legal and taged!!

Yeah, I know the 438 might be a little big for 225s but I'll get the power I want out of it. CHI's do great out of the box, I'm still up in the air to do work on them.

You no longer have the 91? Any pics?

mine is a chp motor 351 stoked to a 427 with trick flow heads hydr motor not real radical its guaranteed about 500hp could get to 550/600 with a fast system and good tune of course after i bought the rear gear everone tells me a 355 would have been a better choice but im going to stick with it until i see what it does!!

Awesome. I found your thread. I'm jealous of the smoothed firewall. Any plans on running a heater? I plan on driving my car a lot, heater is a must! even in San Diego...ha!

FYI, I don't know what size tire you plan to run in back but my g-link is bolted up to my stock 9in housing with stock length axles. The rear wheel has a +20mm offset and the nitto nt05 315/35's fit perfect. No cutting, no spacers. Rolled fender and and about 2 mins of a hammer in a couple spots.

would you mind measuring the ACTUAL width of the 315 Nitto mounted?
