Here is a short video of my Mustang. It's been a long 5yrs to get it this far and it is sure nice to see it run...finally.  :)

Very nice! It's a great feeling to hear the project fire up. Now get some additive in in there and get the RPM's up for 15~20 minutes so everything can seat in. Dun wanna flatten that cam.  :D

It does sound good.  What headers are those?

Those are "Headers by Al", LOL! I built them myself. Right now I have some 3" glass packs on it. After I get the bugs worked out I will probably do something else with the exhaust.

Really cool, Alan.  Is this going to be your Drag Week car?

Thanks, Jay. I'd like to but I doubt I will get it all done in time. I have entered my 66 Galaxie this year with a 521BBF in it.  But we'll see. If I can get it painted and my other motor upgraded(427/452) I may just do it. If only I had your time management skills!  ;)

Actually, my friend Brad(BBC Datsun) and I, watching over the years, were constantly amazed at how much you could get done. I had commented to him "THAT, is what Jay should write a book on".
