Hello this is my 78 stang ii. I got the car about 3 years ago and was just planning on a intake, cam and carb. Well that all changed when i started tearing into it. I decided it needed a rebuild badly, so i yanked the motor and decided to bore and stroke it to a 347. While the motor was being machined i put in a new carpet,T5 tranny and put in all new shocks new tach and gauges. Since the motor was out i cleaned the engine bay and painted it and pulled all the emissions out of it and also pulled the factory blue box and switched over to a MSD 6AL. Its still a work in progress ill keep updating as i do more things to it. Hope everyone likes my Stang.

 

 

 

this is after i got it out on the road

this is right when i got the engine going. looks like hell but it looks alot better since i routed all the wires and cables.

 

some roller rockers for this nice motor.

 

almost ready to hit the road

 

this is what i started with. mis matched rims and a motor that puffed the blues. it barely had enough power to turn the tires, now its got plenty of power with the new engine.

SUPERB condition, ESPECIALLY considering "Two Harbors". I know, I lived in Duluth for 20 years.

Very nice color of blue. 347 is the way to go! My 347 has undergone countless iterations over the years. I eventually went with a mass air flow system, then added a Paxton supercharger. All this under the factory hood scoop! Well, there are some mods that go along with that :-) Check'm out! You got yourself a sweet start! PS: check your pics cause they all come out as small as the thumbnails.
