Pretty, but will it stop?

I wish I had found one that someone hadn't covered in primer.

I think I threw pics up here when I drug it home. It's got a great, great bed. And that's all that matters with those things.

I've got an ls out of a vette with 30some k on it. Harness accessories everything. I've got a 6 speed out of a 14 Silverado that has a little crack in the bellhousing. The motor blew up and it tore the oil pan off when the rod went swinging. Cracked the bellhousing where it bolts upon the lower side. It's a gm performance trans that was installed 6 weeks before the motor blew and the customer wanted it replaced again. I got it for the $270 core. A new housing/ pump is about 350. So cheap trans. I got the motor for whatever the core was on it. The starter broke and took out the block bolt hole.


Second sucks racing builds brackets to fix it and they are sweet. In fact IIRC hometeam might've turned me on to them. So props to him if so. I've used them on several different applications. 350, 4.3 etc... he does it right

It's on the driver side, yea.

To my understanding they are. We swapped the drive train to a '17 mustang GT drivetrain. It's a bone stock 5.0 with a 6R80 6 speed automatic.

We fabricated an aluminum fuel tank, transmission mount, motor mounts and freshened the engine bay with sheetmetal panels. Also has a power steering box conversion, new column and we converted the gauges to digital. Has a new chassis wiring harness as well. And obviously the new wiring from teh coyote.

The paint, interior, emblems etc were on the truck when we got it.

The truck will come back in a few months after the customer has had his fun and we'll do a rear disc brake conversion.

Has an electric brake master cylinder, front disc brakes and a rear disc brake conversion is on the way. It stops really well surprisingly.

How heavy is that new Mustang drivetrain? I would think a lot being a 6spd auto (versus a C4 or AOD).

Not enough to wash out the gain. Maybe 50-60 lbs more.

That’s neat but I’d have put a Camaro engine in there.

He would do something much more ignorant i'm sure.

So now its questionable? or dangerous?

You would brag about how fast you did it...

I own a panther/ Crown Vic, before that an E100, and a Pantara (1981) with a 351C. Some Fords are great cars, most are appliances. One good vehicle every 25 years is all people should have to deal with:D:D:D

You seem to fix Fords to buy Chevy's as I recallROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL


What's a Camaro engine? Talking Stupid....ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

That's how a mechanic makes money.

You remember that happening to me on my original aluminum block in my TA right? They make a fix kit for it, but our aluminum weld did stay once we went to the truck style starter that has two of the long bolts.Just doesnt torque the shit out of that mounting point like the short bolt did.

WANNA know how I know you didn't read my whole post?ROFL

Looking into one of these. Thoughts?
