How did you do that? You are the man! Since the pic I have bolted down the heads and installed the rockers. I am playing around with my accessories right now to make the adaptors I need.

All you do is go to Photobucket, click on the picture you want to display, then under "Links to share this photo" on the right, click on the link that is preceded by "IMG".  That copies the link to your clipboard.  Then paste it into your post here.

Now, I'm doing this from a PC, and you are using a smartphone if I recall correctly.  That may be a different procedure; I don't know...

I picked up my 90mm Wilson throttle body, ordered my CVR water pump and sleeve for my EGR plate. The throttle body is huge but the cost was bigger, they sure are proud of that thing. At 3.5 inches it is a monster that's for sure. The difference between the 75mm EGR spacer and 90mm throttle body is major to say the least.

No I stripped the frame from that truck and mirrored it to box my rear rails, it is going in the four banger truck pictured. I am going to stop all the junk under the hood and move the air box behind the dash, Vintage air makes a mini unit that should fit. After I get it all stripped out my plan is an aluminum firewall and floor to make more room. Header wise I am going with Doug's D627s into a 3" X pipe with dumps. I still need a TKO 600 and American transmission 18 LB flywheel also along with a RST twin Mcload clutch. I will of course need a  cage, seats, wheels tires and other goodies but for now I am going to get it rolling with the four cylinder stick and 9" so I can have time to do other work on the body and drivetrain. I am also planning a carbon fiber hood, sheeting the doors in carbon fiber and installing aftermarket glass to shave some more weight. The other plan in front is also a Mustang II coil over front end to loose a few hundred pounds in the front axle and steering box.
