Unfortunately I don't have a lot of updates, I did order and get my wheel back spacing tool, so hopefully I will get order some rims soon. I did play around with the supercharger a bit to see how it will look and fit

After a long pause I finally started making some small pieces for the firewall so I could get a starting point, and get some sort of visualization of what I was going to build, and how the pedals and everything was going to fit. There was a lot of staring at it trying to get a grasp at how I was going to get all this to fit.But I think I have it figured out, I bought some thin foam board to make the rest of the templates out of so that will speed up the test fitting process. I did pick up a few new motor goodies and I had to see how they looked.

[evilucy65]

I just purchased the new SS headers from JBA, they are designed to fit a mustang or Falcon with a mustang II style front suspension, I'm sure if I hadn't moved the motor back the would have fit just fine, but since I did, I'm going to have to adjust the motor a little to get the passenger side to fit with out hitting.

Surprisingly as close as that master-cylinder is the valve cover still comes off


I finally got to do some work on the Falcon, I built a bracket to mount the pedals and center the steering column

[evilucy65]

So I started playing with the bead-roller and made part of the trans tunnel.

Great build!!! Funny cuz today I was on the phone with wildwood figuring out how we are going to install those pedals and a hydraulic clutch.lol If your near San Diego id appreciate your help on that one! Yours looks so clean :D

[67goatman455]

I never even thought about braces off of that plate. i'm sure your not the first to do that but i'm stealing your idea lol

I thought of that myself without stealing it but if everyone is going to steal the idea then add me haha

EDIT: Im looking at how im going to install this pedal set up and im thinking I might be better off with the pedal assembly that has the master cylinders behind the dash. Do you have any suggestions on a bulk head fitting and then fitting to run from the mc to the bulkhead on braided stainless line?

I'm glad you guys dig it, to me it will add a lot of strength to the fire-wall, I'm still contemplating another brace off the middle to triangulate it. I considered the reverse mount pedals, but I thought I would run into even more room issues under the dash. As for the bulk head, personally I would just use a rubber grommet to pass through the fire-wall, but to be super clean I would go to the left were they would come out inside the fender-well.
Unfortunately San-Diego is a 3-3.5 hr drive for me each way, I live in the wonderful desert.

[BlueGhost93]

Id almost consider paying for your gas if I get stuck trying to install the pedals haha. If I use the same set up as you, im not sure how I can run it through the stock firewall. And I have these frigin support arms running to the shock tower in the way which makes engine bay access a B!..... Ill have to go take a look in the morning then or go out to the garage right now cuz my engine bay is nice and painted and I really don't want to hack anything up...

Ya those support arms make any extra work in there a pain, There is another Falcon on here that has them in it with the stock firewall, I think its a 62. I don't blame you on not wanting to scratch it up, my has gotten several nicks and dings just sitting in the garage and it kills me, which is suprising since I have darn near cut the car in half.lol

[BlueGhost93]

Hahaha yea you really are doing surgery on it. Hey if you come acroos the thread let me know cuz im about to order the wildwood stuff this week. And the next thing on my mind is a quick ratio steering box while I have the headers out but dang! Suckers are expensive from flamingriver...

To run the lines through the fire wall, use these.
