Mustang Build Sheet
This should anwser most of the questions about the car , also I only added web sites
that had great products and anwsered my questions.
By the way I found a lot of good ideas and products at Hot Rod Hotline they have a weekly news letter
Body & Paint Work By ..Richard @ Collegetown Auto, 63 Morse, Norwood, MA. Tel: 781-769-9512.
- Mustang Engine
the original 351 Cleveland two BBL was used,Bored 0.040 over using 9.5 to 1
Keih Black pistons http://www.kb-silvolite.com/kb_car/index.html
Engine was ported and polished with extensive valve wotk - high performance oil pump- racing water pump -
complete COMP CAM /hydraulic valve train was used http://www.compcams.com/
Ignition was MSD - Pro Billet Distributor -MSD 6al spark box- MSD Blaster coil-MSD Wires..using Msd spring and weights a total of
36 Degrees of total timing http://www.msdignition.com/ for the street only 23 Degrees is used (Makes for easy starting)
- Mustang Drive Train - the original three speed FMX was a strong transmission ,but a fourth gear and stall converter were missing
TCI Ford AOD Transmission and TCI 2300 rmp Locking Torque Coverter & Flex Plate http://www.tciauto.com/
The TCI Products have worked and preformed great,we are using Red Line synthetic fluid http://redlineoil.com
DTS Drive train systems rebuilt the 3:25 posi rear end -This is a great gear ratio for street http://www.dtscust.com/
Moser 31 spline rear axles http://www.moserengineering.com/axles.html ( original axles & bearings had problem ,not these)
Drive shaft was shorterned to make fit - conversion Transmission mounts /custom Parts from http://www.npdlink.com/modules.php?
- Mustang Cooling - The car was never great at cooling to begin with a/c,boring the engine etc it was overheating till Be-cool
BE COOL Power cooling Module - 31 inch Aluminum croos flow Radiator/ Dual electric Fans- each with its own sender/ & recovery Tank.
These people anwsered all my questions and made product recomendations http://www.becool.com/ Just a note: transmission was connected to this radiator and works great ,No need for a seperate tranny cooler
180 Degree thermostat in summer and 192 degree in winter,most of times radiator handles heat & automatic transmission with out fans,just a note one fan is wired direct by passing ignition ,so after car is shut down fan can come (190 degree) on to keep car cool and easy starting - the ignition fan is controlled by a adjustable fan switch inside car - great when you are in traffic http://centechwire.com/
Air Conditioning is from Classic Auto air in Tampa Florida http://www.classicautoair.com
Ok I did add a little helper to the water/anti freeze Redline wetter than water ( it works) http://redlineoil.com
- Mustang Electrical - with fifty plus amps the electrical needed help - enter Powermaster
Power Master Ford Alternator 100 amp single wire Chrome http://powermastermotorsports.com
Painless wiring and harness & relays for the fans http://painlesswiring.com and Painless 100 amp Master disconnect for saftey & security
In the engine compartment I added a fuse box - With See thru cover ( Marine Product), everything (wires &connectors ) that I could shrink wrap I did all Marine grade http://westmarine.com
Battery Located in trunk ( trunk kit) from http://summitracing.com
