So Fed Ex calls me this Saturday morning asking if they can make a delivery. I said OK. These will get new Black and red Leather, but they are also Aston Martin!

As a guy who 67 and 70 mustangs and was "only" planning on putting a 5.0 coyote in my 67, I can't quite believe what you are doing, respect ��

I used a 2003 Mustang Cobra speed sensor. Slid right in. I have to modify the hold down a little though.

Plenty of room in there.

Glad to see you doing small details such as the door handles between all the major powertrain work. Besides making it much cooler than some engine swap only vehicle [we've all seen them] I find working on smaller details helps you keep your sanity in a large project.

Probably wouldn't hurt to have some sort of extraction vents in the fenders & or hood. Maybe like the dbs hood, which I've been looking at the vent placement myself

Thoughts on these?

I like the first hood. The lines seem to work better with the rest of your design changes. You could change the grill louvers to something a little more modern.

The car looks great keep up the great work.

With these on the sides.

Guess I got you thinkin.
Vents to the rear of the hood help unload the whole engine bay.
Actual extraction vents above the radiator, particularly if built extending down a bit & some sort of shroud in front of the engine help to get a lot of hot radiator air directly out. A lil bit more work.
Scoops into the front of the hood force air in. Unless you have a carb filter right behind them or some sort of funneled intake to them, I'd think you're mostly loading up the engine bay with turbulent air.
The late model ford style vents could look ok to the rear of the hood.
I posted the DBS hood because it has a little front extraction , though not the whole complicated race deal & some at the rear.

Fender vents help extract also. Just made me 1 of 2 for my Camaro nose el camino project. Styled after Ferrari 599 gtb.

Looking good, as for the hoods I would go with the 2nd or 3rd the first one just doesn't look right to see, I think the slight taper is throwing them off, I would be careful of making the hood look too busy,..my.02

Just a newbie here, but I have to say what an awesome project! you sure are one clever man.

[PRRC]

cool project. Just out of curiosity what kind of HP do you expect from the engine.

I like those wheels...what are they?
