Hi,

Where did you bought the flywheel?

[Sultzi]

One guy did make it from steel for me

Here is small vid of the car finally running!

[Beakster]

Great stuff. Any more pics of the finished engine bay? What boost are you running and any idea of power and torque? What pistons and con rods and where did you get the girdle? What do you expect it to safely rev to?

[bortaf]

Sweet
great to hear it running
Do you have mutch left to do it ?

[Sultzi]

Don't have any pics of finished engine bay, because it isn't finished yet Camshaft gear is under modification (making it adjustable), gearbox is out now because clutch didn't work with that mustangs original system. Now intend to use mondeo v6 clutch cylinder with release bearing on it. Pistons are ross custom order, con rods eagle h-profile. Girdle made from my own dimensions by Tommi's Billet here in finland.

[Sultzi]

Slowly getting there. Next month to the dyno.

Finally got this thing outside the garage and needed a little tidying, all that dust almost over a year been there. Little water and there it was, nice and clean. Tried to do somekind of adjusting too.. still long way to go. One pic for your!

[gsexr]

This will be nice when done. Keep up the good work mate

[matsin]

Very nice work!

[mihakrapez]

Looks great

[Sultzi]

Some updates on my mind now.

Brake master cylinder will be wilwood or land rover 25mm.

Also planning to change this to use E85 fuel. So some updates needed to injectors, adding another fuel pump (044) and some updates to fuel lines.

[Roadsport]

Really liked that main cap ladder. NIce touch. And a very cool project all together! I love the factory look!!

[Sultzi]

After winter, second start attempt.. http://sultzi.kuvat.fi/kuvat/Videoita/Start2.wmv

[Sultzi]

Got new radiator, hopefully it little bit helps with the water temps.. Still need to find out what I will use as a fan, need to check the clearance.

[REGMCI]

Hi, Great job!




I see you have a whiteline Ø24mm Anti roll bar, What do you think of it?
I plane to put one on my Taunus Tc1
