Ill upload the rest of my photo's tonight. Timing is set at 22* or 23*, car idle's and revs amazing now.
Needs radiator/hoses, power steering rack bolted back on, fluids - oil and dipstick.
Small update and rundown on my Fox. I've taken a 97 302W, installed cheap kings rod/main bearings, put on my gt40p heads, Trickflow track heat intake, LT's and an F303cam. The 8.8 has 3.27 gears, it has bested 13.0@106.8 with a 1.9 60ft(spinning through first).
I'm still ify on how I feel about it, i have a rebuild TracLok and 4.10''s to install as well.
Badass....

Ready for some 12's tomorrow
Well I've been fighting a cooling issue since I got the car online. My overflow tank was second hand, I never thought to look at it before filling it with coolant. It had dirt in it ... It's clogged my radiator 3 times, the day after my last post I noticed this... I ended up taking the GTP to the track that day.
I tore this b!tch down again, cleaned the radiator out with water and shoved water into the block till it came clean. It's been fine for 200 miles so far. I got out to the track this past weekend, only having 10 runs with slicks I was learning how to launch. The third pass in a lot of smoke came from my engine bay, the lower intake gasket either got sucked in or its just leaking bad now. I'll have a fel-pro 1250 coming for it this week.
I only managed a terrible 2.0 60ft - 13.2@107mph. That was the first video, it went down hill from there.

At this point, I'm not sure if I want to get into a 94/95 body style Mustang, or buy a roller and do an lsx turbo. Part of me still wants to keep the Fox, I know every nut/bolt now and I've already gotten this far... I assume buying a ring and looking at houses next year will only slow the process down.
