I bought one of these for my mustang and really like it. Came powder coated and with the hardware.

I'll keep buying lottery tickets so I can get a few of these when complete!!😂

Getting a little ahead of the project here but do you know what the bellhousing bolt pattern on the block will be? Would it be feasible to make it a small block or mod motor pattern so there are more bellhousing options?

Great work!!

So I bought one of those CVF racing pumps mostly based on the price and above comments.  Ordered yesterday and shipped today so can't complain about service at least. Going on a Drag engine so not like I'm expecting 100,000 miles out of the thing. Thanks for the input.

I have this water pump on my mustang and filled it with coolant a couple of days ago and it's leaking from the back cover plate. I would suggest pulling the back cover off and sealing it up before installing and adding fluid.

The best alternative to the Mustang II front suspensions is the Mike Maier's Mod 2 front suspension. It retains the rear steering and replaced the the shock towers with new fabricated one yet still has enough room for Coyote swaps. The only reason I didn't go with it when I was doing the front suspension on my Mustang is because of its cost. It's around $7,000. I kept the stock shock towers and went with the Street or Track coil over front suspension.

These Pent Roofs are a somewhat affordable option. Lots of valve train clearance but you sacrifice clearance getting to the spark plugs.

Something like this might work on Jay's adapter.

I not completely sure on the laws but I would assume that at a certain point of non payment he would lose the engine and whatever money he's invested. I'm sure it's not the path you want to go but small businesses can't afford to eat such a loss either. Let him know that the engine is complete and will begin accruing a storage fee.

Many of us have watched the 511 build with Jay's heads. Very sweet build! Thank you for sharing that one.
Is the engine waiting for dyno time availability?

Cheers

I'm waiting for the customer to pay what he owes me.
Were you able to make contact with the customer yet? Very strange situation that he would invest so much and unfortunately leave you on the hook for so much and cut off contact. If you haven't heard back from him it might be worthwhile to see if there's any kind of PI available in his country.

.....It would be cool to see this converted to a crossram set-up. Maybe with some Hyabusa ITB's?

Well I already have a set of IR Inline manifolds modeled up for Jay's adapter.


Also If you were too revise the top for a dual carb set-up like a tunnel wedge I bet there would be a ton of interest.

I have a number of 351c guys chomping at the bit for a tunnel wedge....it will happen!

I have a buddy who would buy the 2x4 for a boss 302.

Best,
Kelly

Very cool and awesome job. I've watched your stuff for a couple of years and I'm amazed at  your talent. It would be cool to see this converted to a crossram set-up. Maybe with some Hyabusa ITB's?

I've been following this build for awhile and honestly didn't think that these guys would be successful but they got it running and I'm glad that I wasn't right.
