Not sure why most of my text disappeared so I re typed it
So after a few very interesting talks with Blair Patrick I have a final plan for my 67 mustang   We have gone with a BBM block and heads. Roller cam , Victor FI intake, FAST XFI 2.0 EFI  twin 69 mm turbo's inner cooler and meth/water injection, Blair has free range on engine combo , says I can drive this car to California but it's going to make a lot of torque.
I will try and remember to take as many pictures along the way . Plan is to run drag week next year

I do know one thing about twin turbo setups......they take a lot of perseverance to get dialed in. I've watched a few guys shelve their projects and/or sell their cars because they can't seem to get the tuning shaken out. Give yourself some time and if it's not working as intended, don't worry, you wont be the first to battle through twin turbo tuning.

That's why I got the FAST EFI with data logging, traction control and boost control. I also have FAST ign system and can dial in the timing curve. I have a degree in automotive technology and ran a nuclear power plant for 25 years. So after I pull my hair out trying to figure this out I can then say how hard can it be

Somehow I think working on car can sometimes be more hazardous and frustrating than that nuke power plant! I kid you not!

Great project, looking forward to seeing how it shakes out-
One thing's certain from what we "keen observers" have noted, BP knows how to build reliable big power.

To keep with my word on pictures. Assembled the rear with brace, pressed in the longer studs, moved the battery to the trunk to make room for turbo's .     Got Fuel line and fittings in. AN-10 fittings are huge ! Battery disconnect handle is pretty hidden going thru bumper. Didn't want to cut up the rear finned panels       I know this is all small stuff but need to start somewhere.

Cool I have two Ford sets.One set is on the 67 coupe and one set on the 68 Fastback...I would really like a picture of what Ford used on the inside for hardware on the studs that just go through the tin.As in the little wedgie blocks..Would that be possible..

The Ford panels are very rare and to add to it coupe/conv panels are different that fastback..
