I had recently picked up an older Gould car #15. A friend of mine had it forever and was on the cover of Muscle Mustang Fast Ford magazine March 2002. He took really good care of it and he traded it to another mutual friend for an 03 GT that used to be mine. Well to make a long story short he stripped the car and I bought the shell. It had alot of really good parts still left on it and i threw it together with a bunch of junk I had laying around. Here is some pictures of when I first bought it.

I finally got it rolling at my buddy's garage to get it home. Its got a set of Weld Draglites 15x10 rear and 3.5 front with 26x10.5 ET Streets.

Once I got it home a threw a stock bottom end together with an E-303 cam and ported stock E7 heads. I also bought a bunch of the original parts from the car as well like the Victor 5.0 upper and lower, 75 mm TB, 80 mm MAF, 42 lb injectors, and MSD distributor. The suspension consists of Competition Engineering struts and shocks with Eibach drag springs. It has a complete Aeromotive fuel system, tubular k-member, aluminum driveshaft, and a stock rear with 3.73 gear.

As soon as I got it together I took it to the local car show and got a trophy. Must say something about the paint which still looks beautiful! I drove it around for a while like that but it just wasnt as fast as it should be, so the other day I got with Mike Bell and bought his 347 out of the vert. I bought the 28 oz flywheel from Rich (thanks!) and went to Jegs and bought some new Comp Ultra Gold 1.6 rocker arms. I sat the motor in last night and Im working on getting things buttoned up today. Hopefully have it running tonight.

28 oz flywheel on a stock bottom end 5.0 HO? Am I an idiot, or should I be confused?


The car looks great in person- beautiful! Good luck with the build.

You missed the part where he bought my 347, it's 28oz balance. Looks great Brian! Can't wait to see my engine back on the road pumping out some power.

Thanks everyone! I got pretty much everything buttoned up today and Im so close to hearing it run. I still have to adjust the valves and set the timing. I bought the March alternator bracket at Jegs only to find out Ill have to get a new shorter belt.
Also on a crappy note... I was in the garage with the door closed when the wife started yelling for me. She said there was something smoking in the basement so I hurried and raised the door and ran inside to find my sump pump had took a shit! I got that squared away and went back out to the garage and if you`ve seen my garage you know what Im about to say! With the hood open and me opening the garage door it smacked the hood and put 1 huge scratch about a foot long in the hood. My day has turned to crap! I need a bigger garage and now I also need the hood painted again! Ill post pictures of it tomorrow!

I think it was just a way for me to get a different hood! Im wanting the H.O. Fibertrends extended cowl hood so its in the future now for sure! I`ll have it done in the next day or so. I mounted up the fan and overflow today but didnt have time to post up more pics.

Yes it was man. So much so that I just didn't want to have that much power under the hood anymore. Next time I am pushing that much power, it will be in a hardtop of some kind with a cage. I'm sorry you didn't get it too, would have been cool to just leave it on the engine for ya. I'll take you up on that when I come home. Thanks man!

Ok its running!!!! I still have the same surging idle problem as I did before but its is running. I think I need to adjust my fuel pressure down since I have the 42 lb injectors it seems to be a little rich. I currently have it at 43 psi and Im going to bring it down to around 38 or 40. Timing is at 12 degrees and it just doesnt want to idle. Its starting to piss me off. Motor runs great but I have a slight miss along with a little vibration around 2800 rpm's. I think I may have a rocker to tight causing the dead cylinder or it could be a fouled plug. Ill check it out tomorrow and hopefully have it running good.

Ok I got the new flywheel today from Dayton Performance which was originally installed on the motor and I did manage to get the old one out. Here is a picture of the 2 side by side. The one with the weight on it was bought used and is the one that caused the vibration. The original flywheel from DP is the one without the weight

draggin50
03-01-2010, 09:31 PM
OK by the way Im not positive that the flywheel caused the vibration. I had talked it over with Mike and this is what we had came to. Once I get everything back together Ill know for sure. If anyone has any info on flywheels and can tell me the difference between the two please do!!!

Alright I made some progress today!!! I got the new flywheel in and put most of it back together. The tranny is back in and all bolted up now and filled with fluid. I do however still have to put on the new X-pipe i bought off of 93LXhatch and bolt the exhaust back together. So here is the good part!!! I started it up and it fired right over and guess what? My vibration is gone. Completely smooth throughout the entire RPM range.. Finally and Im so happy!!! It does still have a few bugs that need worked out and then I'm going to get with Matt at Dayton Performance for a good tuning! Hopefully in the next week or two it will be completed. Im looking forward to tomorrow to finish it up and actually take it down the street to see how it does. Ill update then. Thanks Mike!!

Well I finally got to drive it. Put maybe 2 miles on it now. I still have some bugs to work out but its getting there.

I love the way the X-pipe sounds though!

And for anyone else, Mike has been there for all my questions and helped me out in every pinch I have been in. I was interested in the motor and he gave me a good deal on it and we spoke often on it.

Brian, matt will get on it asap and run every test we discussed, just to make sure I don't need to do anything to it. We need to get a hose on that nipple off of the filler tube and eventually get another breather somewhere since you don't have a PCV in that intake. Every engine makes a little crankcase pressure, and it also sucks in outside air through that nipple. That's where a nice catch can would come in handy. look at my r/s car's setup next time you're up there.
I am very curious to see what hp it will put out all motor with that blower cam and lower compression. It made an easy 600 with the blower, so I'm excited to see what it will make.

draggin50
03-13-2010, 03:23 PM
Yeah Mike I looked at your R/S car while I was there today and Matt showed me how you had yours ran into a vented catch can. I like that set up. Matt said he is going to tee in a pcv valve in the vacuum line. I am anxious thats for sure!! It seems as I'm not having much luck with anything lately since the hood ordeal and then I bent a dipstick so I bought a new one and the dipstick is hitting the main girdle apparently. It goes in till about the last inch and just stops. Then loading it on the trailer this morning I scratched the front bumper cover up a little bit. I guess thats my magic brown finger!! Everything I touch is turning to shit! But my hopes are high and I'm still breathing somewhat fresh air so life is good! I also looked at the D1SC that is sitting there... I am thinkin hard on that but the wife isnt to happy with me spending so much on the car when I need a new garage built and she is wanting a concrete patio poured outback so it might have to wait. I told Matt Id see what happens this weekend and let him know. Thanks for all the help Mike!!:bigthumb

Not to go off topic but he had a nice Capri that sat in his garage also...I wonder if he still has that one?? He was a nice enough guy, I rode with him to trails once, he about killed me on ET streets merging on 71 south:eek:

I will try and stop by this week sometime or next!! good luck with the ride!!:coo1:

I bought the capri from him right before he moved to oklahoma.I sold it to another friend of mine and he had it a few years and sold it and I do not know where it ended up.

The Bundy hood!!! I remember that! He was something else. We`d all have the cars up in Hillsboro and take off to go do some street racing and he wouldnt ever race. Probably the only smart one out of the bunch. I never did see the Capri he had.

Ok I just got it back home! I drove it down the road and the car feels great. Its a completely different car it seems. Idles by itself and makes good power. Maybe Ill drive it around town some today just to put some miles on it. As far as the Dyno numbers go it made 341 hp and 381 lbs/ft. Pretty impressive for a low compression 347 with a blower cam I think. I may swap out cams for this year and put in a TFS stage 2 till the supercharger makes its way on. Thanks Mike and Dayton Performance!

I'll be happy with some 11.90's/12.00's on motor. Im looking at picking up a Procharger maybe in the future and it already made in the 600hp range with the D1SC on it. Hopefully Ill make it to the track in a few weeks to see how it does.

It really depends on your goals for the Mustang. A roots style blower has great low end torque, while the turbo and centrifical blower are good up top. I've had the low end, but I love the upper end power.

Yeah I talked to her a while back and she said you was on here. I didnt know who you was then. Ill have to meet you sometime. Im looking for more top end power like the centrifical or the turbo. I like the price of the On3 kits and I have already talked to Chad there and he gave me a good price on it and I was going to do the Master Power T76. If Mike finds another Procharger set up for a good price (like the last one) and I have my garage done by then thats probably what Ill go with. I love the sound of both though.

Well not sure what cam you bought but if it's the stage 2 I would either return it or sell it off. That's what I am running right now with my 347 and my car peaks around 5700. I am running AFR 185's out of the box that I bought from Mike last year. I am running a Victor 50 intake and that stage 2 cam just doesn't have enough duration on the intake side. Mike and Matt told me this when I told them what I was putting together but I was in a pinch at the time and just kept the stage 2 out of my old motor. I have been shifting at 5800 and running 11.40's@118 with 1.47-1.49 60's. Now last week I couldn't hit 4th gear to save my life and I was running 11.50-11.70's@116. Just my .02 on the stage 2 cam. I would either keep what you have and go with the supercharger or turbo. Or I would go with a stage 3 or a custom grind.

Yeah I was pretty happy with it. Never once skipped a beat but I was having some battery issues and the noise in the rear. Ill check it out tomorrow and see what it is. Seems like a thumping noise in the rear end as its decelerating. sounds good under throttle but when you let off it makes the noise. Maybe the pinion is loose...

Picked up 2 new wheels for the rear from Adam (e5shea). Looks like I gotta convert the front to 5 lug and buy them now as well.

Ive never been to worried about his cars. He has had some nice shit but they get blown up, parted out, or some other crazy shit. 11.00`s on a 200 shot aint shit if ya ask me. I hope to get mine down some then add some boost with a nice tune and be able to drive it all the time.

OK Ive been doing some thinking and talking with a few people and a buddy of mine made me a deal I couldnt turn down so Raz is now the new owner of my Gould #15. Well he is the one I bought it from so he just got it back with the new DP 347. Hope he is as happy with it as I was. In exchange for the car I ended up with Denny Reed's nasty ass 1270 hp Vortech blown 427 windsor turbo 400 combo. Now I'll be back on the prowl for a chasis that will handle this ungodly amount of power!!! Here is a picture of my new score!

Ive never been a fan of the carb but this set up is nice. Im still on the fence with it. Also I think I'd rather have a glide as well so... If I was to go Fuel injected what would your choice be?

NXcoupe
06-24-2010, 04:02 AM
I am not the one to ask on that, lol. I stick with mass air and stock electronics. I hear that bs3 is the one to go with, but I know very little about other than the ones I have installed. Also, there is no one that will give you any training on how to tune with it, or what all the parameters mean/do. I just didn't have the patience or the time to sit down and relearn how to tune, but I believe in hind site that it would be worth it.

06-24-2010, 04:06 AM
Everything is good with this setup and he drove the car on the street with no problems. I wish he would have made some full throttle passes and saw the real potential of it though. That may be something for the future once I get it in and see how things turn out. I feel like throwing up right now and cant even sleep!!!

What negative talk have you been hearing? The Turbo 400 is a very good trans with a ton of strength. Nothing wrong with a 'glide setup or wanting to swap to one but you may be trying to fix something that isn't broke? :dunno:

Looks like a killer setup. :bigthumb Find a good chassis and roll with it. :D

Ill probably hold onto it this time. My kids remember this car and riding in it all the time. Now that they are grown up, it has some sort of sentimental value.
