3/20/10-Continue on Engine Build

These bad weather days make it easier to stay inside and work on the car.  We installed the lifters, the chrome oil pan, the water pump, and started in on the pulleys.  I purchased the power steering pump mount and the alternator mount from Cobrastuff.com.  I required me to change the timing cover and water pump to a 93 model (my donor was a 95 Mustang).  This is causing some issues with my pulleys.  The pulley kit I ordered was for a 95 (oops).  I will need to switch to a 93 pulley setup.  The 95 crank pulley does not align with all the other pulleys.  We also started on the MassFlo system but we are not ready to button up the top end until we get the pushrods.  We did measure the pushrods today and I going to order what is needed.  The engine is really starting to take shape and it is going to look goooood!

3/14/10-More odds and ends

I have had limited time to work on the car and the intervals have not been long enought to accomplish anything meaningful.  I spent a little time today riveting the firewall in place.  I also hung the master cylinder reserviors to the firewall. 

3/7/10-More work on the Engine

We had bad weather today so I spent all day working on the engine build.  Today we worked on degreeing the cam and installing the timing chain and cover.  We also installed the heads and oil pump and pickup.  I put a coat of paint on the block and heads.  We ended the day needing more parts so off to spending more money.

2/21/10-Install Braided Fuel Lines, Back Trunk Panels, Master Cylinder kit

I spent a couple of hours working on the fuel lines to the fuel tank. I also attached the 2 outer rear panels permanently.  I started installing the power booster for the brakes.
