The Story:

Now to start, the stock 302HO engine provided by Ford is a damn-strong engine! At its time, it ran with the best of them in its class. Before any mods on my engine, it was a perfect running engine for 15 years, and after the intake, gears, Flowmasters, underpullies, and tune up, it ran even better. Still though, like I said on my intro, I recieved the itch for speed after experiencing it from those mods, and like I knew from others, that engine had much more in it to be brought out.

After some procrastination, as I knew it would be costly, I decided to take the leap and just go for it. It has been a long, many times difficult journey, but in the end, it has been worth it... so I think most of the time. At times I get angry thinking that I had a perfectly good car to start with, and now everything seems to be going wrong after all the mods, but hey, that is what you get when you start messin around with things. It makes it all better seeing those big shots in my rear-view...

Now it's not meant to be the fastest car on the road. I have made this car to be able to shut up many people with big mouths, but still be an everyday driver. I enjoy keepin it in 5th and just cruisin' alot, but every now and then, I can kick it into 3rd and let the engine's sweet song ring out. As you can see, the engine compartment looks damn presentable right now, but I am currently in the process of chroming many parts of it to give it that sharpness needed to win car shows so keep in touch!
