Ok I've been a major fail about doing this I will get some pics up soon =) anyhow next weekend the inagrural nitto show is here! Tomorrow I'm swapping in a 03 termie irs and springs all the way around with full cobra brake set up! Also gotta finish painting my wing ( swapping on a stock black gt wing) and polish it up good I'm getting in on the car show sat and will settle for a cameo in the mags when they come out. You have to read the thread when it goes up to see what I'm building though stroked up 5.4 4v custom cams, blower 6spd, irs, big shinny wheels, upgraded brakes and a few odds and in's I love my bolt on 4.6 but its time for some serious nastyness!!!

Talked with the engine builder last night going to stay with 5.4 crank and just a small overbore. Ordering new rods and pistons next Friday! Engine should be in running and ready come april! Also looking into the fore fuel system to feed the beast!

Get with 05yellowgt. He has their triple pump set up and he has been talking about replacing it since it does flow enough fuel for his needs. Maybe you can save a little money.

Oh yeah??? Sounds like a idea... I spent 6 hrs yesterday chasing down the proper "bastard" ujoint to mate an aluminum driveshaft to the irs rear. But rotors are turned, new pads, irs is ready to install I get off in a few hours and will attacking this today!

Ha thanks that my right hand man! I always wanted to do this with my own dad but never got the chance and he and I are building a memory for him and his sis to enjoy when the are older.

Thanks I think a tvs swapped car will be pretty dang smooth! Eventually ill prob do a kb but there no intakes avail to put the newer s/c on the older heads so I'm addressing that too!
