Is it even possible to adapt an actual Mustang II crossmember?
Exactly the same for me. How can the import guys not like it? I mean for most of them, their whole shtick is to "hotrod a sh!tbox econo car"...
If you do this, please document! It sounds like a very good approach. I've had similar ideas myself.
Sending it now!
Welcome! If you're patient and willing to put the work into it, factory AC can be added to a non-AC car:...
I kinda like the turbo 2.3 idea too...
Yeah man, if a 351w is too mainstream for you a 289 sure ain't gonna cut it. I'd love to see a well done 300 swap.
I would definitely not do that on a Maverick. I always used to do that too, but the very first day I owned my Mav I almost ruined a rocker panel...

They're fun when you have a five year old son. I do wish they'd limit it to 90's Grand Ams and Camrys, but the cars they crush are just whatever...
Ok I finally got into it hard on my lunch break. Tire smoke well into second gear until I had to let off, and I started from a roll. I REALLY...
The base came from some old beast with a 400m, don't recall what car exactly... The top is just a regular old chromed breather top that I sanded,...
I know, I know... Just, paranoid I guess until it's run a little longer. Also I'm really not sure I have enough fuel pump to support this engine...
I agree! I finally did get into it some tonight. I figured hey, it's got 30 miles on it, it's a seasoned old soldier now so let's go! So I took...
Thanks! Congrats. Kinda neat when a car you're very familiar with suddenly has a completely different personality, isn't it?
