Ford 302 out of a mustang. Hasn't been dyno'ed in YEARs. Engine was dyno'ed when it was built at I think like 305 HP. It has never been dyno'ed in the car. Car weighed 1400 lbs last we weighted it, and I'm sure it is lighter after the rebuild...

This is what is used to look like...with a broken / bent frame.

See where the seat bottom is? Unless you're 5'2 that windshield is that tall for exactly the reason stated.....

Looks great, I'd love to build a T bucket with a turbo4 in it...but that is all metal masterbation at this time as I have no time or money to build one. How is the "little girls" car? I've only seen a few on the road by me.
