Thought all fords came with the bolts finger tight? Lol nice car can't wait to see it done! It will be really cool with a ls motor and not a mod for once!

Still waiting on getting the converter and trans back from Mr. Ridings. but so far its all on time!
 
mine is running
still needs tuned correctly...


Get that running so there will be 2 '00 ls turbo cars around!
 
Just blew up my sbc yesterday, So the LQ4 should be going in my car soon as well. Badass lookin build Matt.
 
Finally got a couple updates, and wanted to give a big thanks to Pure84GTT for his help last night. He went above and beyond helping me get the motor in the car. My engine leveler decided to disassemble itself halfway thru putting the motor in place and Alex came through in the pinch, got under the car and worked the trans side from underneath with a jack so that we could get the motor in place. Thanks again and +1 when he posts up

I got my block painted all red and put back together...

Got it back where its supposed to be, instead of on my kitchen floor. Tonight im going to try and get the turbo kit bolted up to see how everything fits compared to when it was on my fox. The frame rails underneath the two cars are actually different as the trans mounts were about 3" offset from where they needed to be, so I need to redo it :(

It sits alot better than I thought it would now with some weight in it too.

Today I tackled my first time bending and designing my own brake system, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out so far. I only got the fronts done because I'm still not sure how I want to do the rears.
