Thinking bout getting some older muscle

Recommended Posts

Well I was thinking about getting an older ford, I absolutely want a 351 Cleveland in a car so baddly :drool: . I have the motor in my back yard in a camper I just need a shell that is 4 spd and I will need a 4 spd tranny. Then lots of gas money, then I will build it like crazy. Its just so easy to get info on cars like this around where I live cause thats all everyone builds. I want a Gran Torino, but they're super rare plus you just about have to kill to get an older 4 spd anything. Any help on finding a shell would be appreciated xD

I've decided to boot out my idea of a fast Honda. I've actually got a 351 Modified sitting in the backyard in an old tow-truck..

 

A friend of mine is selling what I THINK is a '91 Mustang LX coupe that's already setup for five-gears. I think I may have to jump on it. :o!

no offense to any mustang owners cause i love mustangs...but everybody in WV has one and they are all a big ol piece of crap.lol. and i know if i ever got one (a nice one) all the rednecks would be looking at me with thier hillbilly faces.lol and the tuners would all shun me. so id rather drive my car and get no attention from either of them.lol but i do have some love for mustangs...just maybe in different territory.lol

 

i personaly want an oldy nova, or camaro, or charger...who am i kiddin the list is endless.

I still love my fox body coupes. Nothing like a set of draglites to cap off a mildly lowered suspension, fatass meats in the rear and skinnies up front, loping and pounding the ground.

 

Mm mm mm. I think I've found what I want next.

I'd love to have a '69-'70 Chevelle SS someday. Best looking muscle car IMO.

when i was doing the body work on my car, this guy had one of those fully restored with a $10,000 black paint job on it. it looked soooo good. except for when he was storing it outside for a couple days. he had it in one of the storage bays, and couldnt drive it out without squeeling the tires on the concrete

theres really no difference in the GM and ford trannies back than , same trannys for the most part. different bellhousings. im with civic on this one , hook it up in a fox body mustang man , theres really no better flatform if you wanna go fast. that engine might cost you money if you wanna do anything to it , lol. cleveland is like a wedge head design. you got a 351 modified civic? trade it for a windsor , lol. get your hands on a 302 from the years 86-95 , save up 5000 , and ill show you how to make power , hahaha. nothing like 650 horse smallblocks running all motor , running on nothing but race gas as well , but thems the prices you pay , lol.

Cranny, I have..the motor. And, call me Ben from here on out LOL. Your comment tripped me out "351 modified civic?"

 

I always heard bad things about the OEM Roller 302's in the Foxbody Mustang's. I didn't think the bottom end could handle over 500 horses otherwise the block would crack and you'd be fracked.

 

Is there something I've been overlooking? I have the 5.0 out of a '95 Mustang too LOL, I just didn't wanna' dump a lotta' money into it and have it go crack on me.

 

And boo on you, IL3GL, with your damn mullet-mobile.

the roller blocks are the bomb man , youve been misinformed.

 

now you take your 302 windsor roller block , than you buy this:

than you take that kit to your local machine shop with the block , have them clearance it and balance the crank. prolly cost you like 400 bucks approx , make sure you buy oversize pistons and have them fit for the engine.

 

than after thats all done , than you need to pick up a set of these:

and these:

than youl need this to feed your heads:

throw this in there:

that setup right there , running upgraded ignition and fuel system , and tuning , running on race gas , is good for at least 500 horse , at least. not only that , i dont know if you guys ever heard a 347 stroker before , but its downright scary even at idle.

 

 

here you go , would you hold it? lol , 347 stroker as well , putting down 9's with 700 horse.
