She's Alive!

Got the engine all wrapped up today. My buddies dad took this video with his phone. I got one too but the sound is horrible. Like 5 minutes after the video was taken my intake manifold decided it wanted to crack. Cracked right by the Thermostat Housing. Started spewing coolant everywhere. Guess its just time to upgrade to the Aluminum Crossover version. But here's a pic and a video of it for now.

[chris91]

Will do! Hoping to track down a Manifold soon so I can get it on the road. Its drivin me nuts knowing its so close to running again. lol

[chris91]

Thanks! Im pretty happy with it so far. Now only if I can drive it then Ill really be able to tell. Should be a totally different car now.

Sounds mean, hope all works out for you Chris.

[chris91]

Thanks man! Hopefully picking up a manifold tomorrow. Anyone know if a Manifold from a 02-03 Crown Vic is the same? Looks like itll work from the pics but just want to be sure.

Got the intake manifold done today. Took a better video with my camera. Needs a final tune and will be good to go. Drove it home from Batavia to Anderson and it ran perfect!

Not sure as of yet. Really trying to find someone that will tune it with the Delta Force setup I have. Havent contacted Cincy Speed yet due to the holiday.
