Getting Busy

Time fly’s.. it been awhile since I updated this Blog.. I’ve finally made some decisions on which engine I’ll be building for my car. I had thought about a 520 cubic inch engine but the price is the same for the 545. There isn’t any rule on engine size so it’s just as well get more bang for the buck. For the most part the car’s chassis is complete. Just some needed safety equipment.

I have to finish the car by February 2006 so there is some pressure on me to move things along. Below are a few facts on the car and I’ll update the information as I go along.

1990 Mustang (Fox Body)
C-4 Ford Transmission
8.8 Ford rear end with 3:27 gears
S&W Roll Cage

My plans are to participate in the 2006 Summit Racing Series Division 7. You can read more about it here http://www.nhra.com/aboutnhr/etseries.htm

My goal it have my car run in the 10 second range at about 135 Mph.

See you!
