Thread: PNW newbie

  1. #1

    Talking PNW newbie

    Hello all who read this!

    i recently picked up my 1986 soft top GT. (My first mustang!!)

    I wasn’t a fan of soft tops or the four eye until I brought her home.

    The wife and I named her Elanore.

    82k original miles on it.
    everything works.
    currently has BBK shorty headers on it.

    347 Scat stroker kit, 302 block, (needs bore hot tank and notching)
    trick flow 170 heads, trick flow streetburner intake, trickflow stage 2 cam all sitting in the garage waiting for me to take the block in.

    other than what’s written above, I’m new to forums and do not know what to write lol

    If going with 347 stroker I suggest putting in sub frame conectors from maximum motorsports.

    Awesome advice!

    Would it matter if I went full length or standard?

    And would you recommend bolt in or weld in?

    I would go full length welded in.

    Weld in is the only way to do it right and Welcome.
