i have most of the stuff to build the motor, but now i have to see if i can save the block and heads. i splurged a little too much and going to be over budget as it is. i think its going to sit a little longer, i will work a ton of overtime, and maybe i will have it running by july or august.

I still have my block and heads. If you need them let me know. I will sell them cheap.

i will take to machinist to get all cleaned up and see whats abled to be saved. i will probably work the head and he will do the block probably. if he is busy, i might do the block too.

i got mad at the dyno and change a couple setting on my nitrous tune. i was peaking 29-30 degrees of timing on the bottle. i was racing a termi when it blew. i was at 6100 rpm's and shifted to 4th when the motor let go.

sorry, i havent been on here much. the car is sitting at a friends house right now. a friend of mine called from STL and hurt his mach. i have it tore down in my garage right now. i am hoping to get back on my car soon. funding has ran tight so i will have to sacrifice a couple things, or be patient and try to find a way to afford the items i want. here are some pics of the way it sits as of right now:

thanks, hopefully i will be able to get back to it soon. maybe i would even be able to get it back together in time to take it to the track. i am having trouble finding someone to tune it, i have called most big shops across the nation. i have only found 2 that is willing to do it, all the others dont seem to have the balls to tune what i want.

How r u wanting it tuned?
sweet2kstang
08-28-2009, 03:57 PM
its not how i want it tuned, its the set up that the shops dont like. the set up is going to be very aggressive, and they arent liking it.

Almost looks like you're building my dream new edge! Mine would need to have spoiler delete, mach1/bullitt quarter glass trim pc, and mach1 chinstrap painted bodycolor.

thanks. still a lot of work. getting the shop going has taken most of my time so i have fallen behind on the car. the build changed drastically in the past 11 months its been down, and hopefully i can see the light at the end of the tunnel. this motor that i am building now will probably be up for sale by the end of the year or begining of next year i hope.
