Now that our cooling system is dialed in, the cracked header is fixed, and we can comfortably run the engine without breaking anything, time to put some miles on the Mustang!

Good choice on the dual pass radiator and square 295 setup. Those two things make huge improvement for driving hard, I also had a 50-row oil cooler for 30 minute sessions 195F/195F @ 100F ambient. Dual pass is much more efficient especially on the road course. Square setup, once you get up to 295's, make a HUGE difference, I was running 18X11 315's on my last setup, which finally eliminates understeer(gained about 3-5 seconds from 275's). Last thing I loved was my steering quickner, but your rack looks perfect for a street car. Wrapped the headers with DEI Titainium heat wrap, which eliminated a lot of heat in the engine bay and next to the plug wires. Congrats!

+Meghani Motorsports I just ordered that DEI titanium shit along with ACCEL ceramic spark plug wires. Hopefully that fixes my plug wire boot melting problem.
@sittinheavy1
@sittinheavy1 8 жыл бұрын
+TheSmokingTire Definitely should. I use the exhaust heat wrap on every manifold and you can pretty much touch the header after WOT. With modified headers they were super close to all wiring, never melted OEM plug wires or had any issues (30 minute sessions). DEI also makes Fire sleeves for wires, hose etc, if you have something super close and want redundancy. The exhaust heat wrap should be more than sufficient by itself!

+Meghani Motorsports Glad to hear it. I have the fire sleeves on my current MSD wires, and even though the sleeve itself wasn't scorched, the boot melted inside the sleeve! That's why I need the ceramic plug wires and heat wrap. I can't keep dealing with that shit.
@sittinheavy1
@sittinheavy1 8 жыл бұрын
+TheSmokingTire Gotcha, the heat sleeve is more of a preventative of the wire actually touching something hot. It doesn't have a reflective radiant barrier that would deflect the heat away from the wire(gold foil). The turbo manifolds I use the heat wrap on, glow red under WOT, and like I said you can damn near touch them after being wrapped. The ceramic coating alone didn't seem to make much difference IMO, other than corrosion resistance.

I love the fact that it started out as a Highway Patrol car, and the fact that you built it as a handling car, not a drag car. I can imagine it is a lot of fun to drive. You now have built one of the few Mustangs I have respect for, and actually would own myself if given the chance.

I recall seeing a built late 60s mustang on Drive Network, that had a completely overworked IRS, which was also massively capable. You just dont see too many of them out there, because too many people use the platform for straightline performance purposes.

Minimal performance mods, Mostly handling (Suspension, Sway bars, Spacers, Brakes etc) I've always taken cars, Modified them to the point I was happy. Then the British winter rolls around, I get sad, Sell the car, Buy something else and regret it. Watching you has reminded me to hang in there, 300-400hp is PLENTY when your driving real roads and real roads are the most fun. You should visit the Welsh hills to do some driving, I'd be honored to go out although I'm sure Chris Harris would be a better guide. Keep up the great work and that's a fantastic car.

Procharger is a brand, not a type of forced induction so don't say 'Procharge it.' The correct term is Centrifugal Supercharger. Also with a Centrifugal Supercharger its just a hassle because you then have to take the engine out of the car and built it with forged or billet internals so it can handle more forced air.

Haha wow what a stupid comment. This motor comes forged from the factory. Plus even if it didn’t you don’t need to remove the motor. And “procharging” IS the accepted term for putting a cs on a car. At least with car enthusiasts

A 5 liter v8 that produces 350 hp... Why the hell do americans love big gasoline guzzlers with compared to the engine size, "no power"? And on a relatively light vehicle, this just doesn't make any sense to me...

I think that a smaller block with way less cubic inches fine tuned would be more appropriate for a light vehicle, wouldn't it also cut the gas costs? I live in europe so thinking about running a V8 that size would be suicide.

That's by far one of the BEST FUCKIN' fox bodies EVER. Period. Love the over fenders, love the foresight on the temperature settings, hurst shifter looks fantastic, steering wheel adds some badassness. It's a perfect build. Congratulations and I hope it makes you as happy as I imagine. I completely agree when you say that what is really important is that the car makes you happy.

I appreciate how you didn't do like so many do and swap for a Coyote engine. The original 5.0 HO to me is enough and it sounds so much better than the Coyote. A hundred more horses and it will be perfect. I love your vision for this build and can't wait to see what more this build becomes. I have that engine in my 1990 Ford Ranger extended cab.
