We need help with ideas on this one . Up for any thing But still want it to be daily driven. Any ideas on engine plates ? Trans , Turbo , Turbos , Fuel sys. ?

Owner Jason Rabe , turbodad347

you gonna box the frame in? Thats a cool idea but i think it would turn that frame into a pretzel.

Thats bad ass!

Trans, i wonder if you could adapt a T-56 to it.

phuck. Someone beat me to it.

Needs lots of Nawwwwwzzzzzzzzz.

Box the frame LOL! Hardly there are 1000 rwhp big block turboed foxes all over . Look at Tim Lynches outlaw car . David Wolf got another. My own Fox body has a 10 pt. and a mongo set of frame connectors thats all.

Might look into the oil filter set up off of an E series the hood line on these cars even with a huge cowl is not nice to play with sometimes. Motor plated are a snap 3/16 angle iron off the frame rails and build your plate off the nose of the engine. Cut the tunnel and put the 5r110 back behind the motor and call it a day.

Flip the exhaust manifolds and mount the turbo(s) in front so you don't have to worry about clearance by the firewall with 'em. I can't tell in the pics, but I guess the stock oil cooler fit? I'd definately look at doing the fuel bowl/filter and oil cooler/filter delete/relocate.

38R and hybrids. Be a blast on the street.

That's a 6.0, Jacob. :D

Didn't look at the pictures I quess, just noticed the thread title.

Why would anyone want to do any transplant with the worlds only diesel powered coolant pump? ;)

here are some of my plans, i have to get the motor plates made. use 6.4 manifolds flipped, i have not decided wether to use combos,parallel, or big single. will use 5r110, 8.8 rearend mini-tubbed with a 325 drag radial. no power steering, no a/c, pretty much just bare nec. just found out i will have to have a pretty heavily modified intake manifold. any input or suggestion is appreciated.

Cool I want to stick a 4bt in my coupe .

What weight coil do you have on the coil overs ?

i called upr when i ordered my k-member, told them what i was doing and about how heavy the engine was. they recomended a 12-250 spring. we will see how they work. they also made the k-member without mounts for me.

800 hp 4bt would be cool!

hopefully he'd be looking for more power than that!!!

Love this idea, have thought about it too.

What about compound chargers in the trunk and a functional side vent behind the rear windows to take in air on each side?

This might help with traction and weight distribution as well.

Good luck and sweet project.

i love the idea of compounds in the back. i am trying to make it as simple as possible. so i am leaning towards 1 big single, how big of single should i run trying to make around 600-700hp streetable. with out having a lot of spooling issues.

GT42-45. I think they would be best for that level, but I don't know anything about that much powah.

Mike murillo allready did that . Ended up going the traditional route tho.

That 250 spring sounds a little light :confused:

Awesome project! Love the fox bodies, I think I had 10-12 of them. But you need to make it do this. Go to 4:10.....

Sad part is as witnessed wheelying aint wining. :doh:

here is my car for doing that, i thought the diesel would be fun for street and a little strip.

Damn that car is sweet !!

what do you guys think of a single s400 charger. i realize it will probably be slow to spool. maybe i will use some nitrous.

Aahhh, well now I know where your intake is coming from. :D

What's the reason for using the 6.4 manifolds?

Not sure how much room you have in there, but you could always throw a Procharger in there with the turbo. A lot less piping to worry about than compounds. Just one pipe running from the Procharger to the turbo.

the 6.4 manifolds dont bend at the end, easier to make up pipes go where i want. but havent bolted any up yet so not sure if they will work.

thats a great idea, im kinda partial to procharger. that's what is on my race car. its a gear driven f3. which blower and turbo would you recomend. i like the way you think!

I've got an FC1 on mine, but there's a size bigger that'll fit on the bracketry. Call Buddy at Empire or get Dover to call 'em and they can figure out what you'd need. Plus it's just fun saying it's turbocharged AND supercharged. :D

Can you say cowl hood much LOL.

One thing I would have to say dont do is the 5r especially if its gonna drag alot. Too many shifts and they just wont hold up all that well. Since its a whatever you want project get an adapter plate and put a built 4r behind it. I would bet a 4r would pick up a few tenths in a 1/4 over a 5r.

Twin turbo it with a bunch of nitrous like the Banks truck, seems like that works good for a lightweight drag car and should be real drivable on teh street too.

:)

Sweet, glad to see this is still going. :D

.

Thats pretty cool my 93 convertable would be pretty cool with that combo

My buddy put a 12v in his elcummino, doesnt seam to have the weight to load the turbo to its potential or something, needs juice i guess

yea i like the way both of you guys think. Go turbo and charged cuz it will look killer and it would be really friendly on the street and wouldnt have to worry bout turbo lag driven it around.

Pssssst, Procharger. :D

your biased, but it would be a sick set up

Isn't it going to be a little rough as a daily driver with solid mounts?

it will not be a daily, but i want it streetable. i dont think ther will be any issues with it being mounted solid. i would really like to do the procharger deal. but i will need some sponsor help.

Awesome build, I wanted to do that as well.

my buddies elcummino has poly mounts, not much to them, they dont offer to much vibration reduction, its not terrible to ride in, the hood stack is more annoying than anything.

Lookin bad azz....:D

Lookin good! keep it up!

New to this site and love this build! Go solid all the way! Every `stang we do is running with solid mounts. I have an `89 and the only vibration we got was when the actual crossmember mounts were changed to solid. Thats a tight fit so I feel much better about the Cutlass project now. :D As far as boost, I personally would do a twin rear turbo. Keep the inlet to turbo at 2 1/4 piping and go 2.5 to 3 inch (depending on lowerring kit) to both banks. If your running a cell than u have room for both without any issues at all. No intercooler needed as 12-14 feet of piping is all the cool u need. I`d spray the exhaust piping with techline coatings "cerama white" (aint cheap) for velocity. I personally use this coating and can touch a catalytic converter with my bare hands! This stuff is awsome. Dont worry about a charger,,,you`ll spool. ;)
Now after seeing this I`m one step closer to shoving the 572 (long stroked and openned 460) into my `89.
Really cool build. Hats off to the dare to be different group.

Don't forget, this isn't a gas motor. Might wanna learn a little more about these motors before trying to give advice like that.

.

Man that's pretty sick. I wanna do that to my stang, But I don't have the $$$

any updates?

there at a stand still right know the car is in the trailer in storage at this moment as far as i know.

no update pics now, but just decided to try to get the mustang done in time for nadm finals in crandal, tx on oct 10. i have alot of work to do and not much time. i will try to get some progress pics up as i go. if anyone has any 6.0 parts the would like to donate it would help alot. i am just trying to get done with stock stuff, but if anyone wants to help with some, studs, fuel sys. injectors, or chargers i am all ears. thanks again for the help. see everyone in oct.

:eek:

That'd be awesome! :rockwoot:

.

her is a couple pics

Rock On!!!

turbo mount, watcha think

Looks familiar!
Works good for that other stang, just watch out for seagulls and children that could get stuck in the wheel LOL

Looking good man. hollar at me if there is anything i can do man you know i got some parts layin around for certian people lol. I think you should have put it in the grey car!!

thats what ive been thinking about, with that geardriven F3. we will see what happens next year.

throw in some 285's-315'scc injectors

I may have missed it, but if your gonna street drive it, how are you gonna cool it? I have a few extra's laying around. Radiator from a mustang is in my attic.

when i startex this project i was going for more of a street car, but now it is gonna be strictly race. at least for the time being. i am gonna see what happens with no cooling system. i will be at crandall.

nice. finally getting everything laid out and figuring out where you goin to plumb all the lines and run all the wires? It looks awesome tho. Wish i could help with the build up.

Looks to me the motors A bit to far forward. With a little time She could be moved back, Giving you more room up front(where you need it) and let it track up alot better. Other wise it might be a nice tire roaster. It might make your build alot easyer in the end.

Any news on the build!

Is a 6.0 or 6.4 block smaller than a 7.3?
