88 EFI 460, Stock everything, Custom Dual Exhaust, Thrush Turbo mufflers, customized fuel system, Holley 225lph EFI fuel pump, Factory oil cooler, The Engine came out of am Econoline Van, I picked up the whole combo (eng/trans/comp/wiring harness) for $1100 CDN |
| Drivetrain: |
C6 tranny (that's about to die), NP 205 Transfer Case, Dana 44 front end, 9" rear end, 3.50 gears front and rear, 33x12.5 Yokohama Geolander AT, Warn Front Hubs |
| Notes: |
In the near future, I plan on doing a frame off restoration to her. In the more immediate future tho, I have to get her through my province's Out of Province Inspection because I just moved here from British Columbia. That will include a new fuel tank and pump/sender unit, new EFI fuel lines, plane the exhaust manifolds down to get rid of the leaks (common on the newer 460's) replace both front and rear sway bar bushings and swaybar links. and a little bit of re-wiring.
other than that I hope to upgrade the engine a bit, RV cam, 30# injectors, Mass Air Conversion (from a 89-93 Mustang), Ported and Polished Heads and intake w/ 2.19 and 1.76 int/exh valves, Hope to get about 400 hp out of her when I'm done and still be able to use a remote start to start her in the winter monthes, also Long Tube Headers w/ 2 1/2 inch dual exhaust running 40 series Deltaflow Flowmasters. |
