kool deal. Id rather see a mod motor swap or a bbf but this is different from the norm so thats good too

[NitrousMike]

looks good

[FiFdYnUtZ]

thats pretty sick man, i like the out of the box thinking!

[69gt4speed]

Yea jon huber has that turbo 4, it's a wheelie machine. I'm sure he's on youtube. And that's a pinto based engine.

[stangvortech]

o no

[skipdownstairs]

THANKS GUYS!! Yeah definitely wasn't balls deep in pink when I thought of this one and yes Jon Huber is kinda what its based from of in a way. Just hoping I can get it on the track before the snow flies!

[AutoMods]

Nice, no more busted trannies or center diffs

[Scott]

gonna need a really small torque converter for that engine! cool project though, cant wait to see what it runs

[Clinical]

I love it!!

Looks like I'd almost have fun doing a timing belt job on that!

[slo4cyl]

Looking good andy! Can't wait to see it sometime.

[skipdownstairs]

Yeah i am using a 9" Hughes that stalled at 5600 I'm sure its gna be tight but its all I have right now with so much money going different ways. That's whats its gna be to get it on the road.

is it possible to use anti lag with an auto?

[Scott]

Im really not sure how that would work, I have seen it done before thats for sure. The only problem is the engine is under a huge load anyway with the trans brake on and WTO. I think thats how alot of intercoolers and intake plumbing gets blown up, I know Ryan was experimenting with it on his 93 cobra with the 5.4 mod motor in it.

[NitrousMike]

using antilag will be the opposite from using a manual since its under load. Manual cars like to have timing retarded quite a bit for anti lag, on a auto use more timing to help keep the convertor flashed, to little timing will have bad results.

[DustinsDuster]

cool build. i have one of bill hincher's t56 bellhousings for my truck eventually

[drfast4ward]

Well Well Well.... Looks like we might have a good race coming up :) I should be done with mine in about a month.. here some pictures. dont mean to hijack your thread just thought I would pipe in with my similar project.. :)

[Drifte]

I cant tell ya took the sticker off. is that a billet 6262 on their or something larger? Looks like fun, we all saw trents a few weekends back at the dyno. Those two cars lined up would be a great sight to see.

[69gt4speed]

I would think the fox might be lighter than the duster. Isn't that the frankenmopar or something?

[drfast4ward]

its the frankendart and its only 2600 lbs wet whats that mustang weigh?

[69gt4speed]

I think huber is around 2500 or so. then not much different.

[skipdownstairs]

Interesting... I weighed mine with the cage in before I put the engine and trans in and it was under 1450 I looked online at what the engine and trans weigh and they are about 500 lbs. for the pair. after adding the rest of the stuff in there intercooler piping, fluids, kids seat, navigation and some wiring and I'm hoping I'll be under 2500 I saw a vid on youtube of Hubers car and it said his weight was 3000 lbs. 500 lbs is a ALOT!

[Domestic Disturbance]

That is cool. Love unique swaps. I remember joking about this idea with a friend of mine a while ago about having a 4g63 in a proven chassis (cause we'd never do it, we're broke and lazy, not that its a bad idea) so its cool to see someone really doing it.

[skipdownstairs]

Yeah pretty unique I was telling George about it at the track a few months ago he about fell down when I told him I was putting a DSM engine in it.

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Nice!!! Makes me reconsider a 2JZ swap in my Mach One.

[Drifte]

they did that on tokyo drifto

[sLoWnStEaDy]

they did that on tokyo drifto

the newest F&F? I should probably watch that sometime. When did that come out? Just wondering because I mentioned doing it on here like 3-4 years ago.

[Drifte]

that was the 3rd one. from like 06. The newest one I think they actually wreck every single car you see.

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Just checked it out, they did an RB26 swap in a '67 mustang... 2JZ in a '73 Mach One is OK to do still. :)

Fbomb does a wheelie in the sand... no special effects :biggrin:

[breadman]

to op of thread, iam in north carolina and doing something similiar to this, i have 1990 mustang, i getting parts together to do honda k24 rwd using a th400, i have a few questions like how was oil pan clearance to rack, your build has been very inspiring to me

[Deimos]

man andy you gopt a following

[skipdownstairs]

Called him this morning gave him some input on some things I liked and didn't like on my build and would change to make some things easier for him hes going to have to make his own adapter plate which is the trick part sure is crazy how this got out there nation wide lol

Engine is back in and running with 10:1 je pistons and ready to rip some heads off:)))

[breadman]

thanks for the fast responce, was good talking to you, i contacted bill hincher shortly after and he willing to work with me on making the plate, soon as i make some decent progress with my build ill update you, i think once i get the oil pan part down it will be down hill from there, thanks again for the inspiration.

[black88gt]

Bread you should make a build thread on here if you've got the time. Even though you're across the country there is a lot of interest in unique builds on this site and I for one would like to see how it turns out.

i will once i have everything together, just sent block off to same guy andy did to get adaptor plate made, if all goes well i should have running by first of the year

As a turboford guy I have always been jealous of the 4G63 cylinder head and its flow capabilities. If only ford would have went through with the DOHC 2.3 lima instead of going with the dual plug setup. This is a great build, glad to see people who aren't scared to do new things.

I've heard you can get a Volvo DOHC head on the Lima 2.3. That would really make that SVO interesting.

[86svo9L]

Yea, Ive thought about it but its a hard sale to the wifey when I just spent money to get it repainted. So possibly a few years down the road.

Who made the top Mount turbo manifold?
