The A5 that Tony sells is awesome. I've built quite a few of them, one guy lives in Alabama that has one I built for him before he rotated out of the service up here. He told me it's still going strong in his hot street car. They shift so smooth, but they are noisey.

The Plan, Build a really nice daily driver keeping it looking as stock as I can. Many build a DD including me thats fast low 11s high 10s but not really dependable at that level. This time I'm hoping to make it more dependable.

So I ordered the 85mm Mass air as I talk about above see in pic. I will use the air filter when I'm running at the track right off the TB. (This is for an 03-04 Mach 1)
https://www.americanmuscle.com/cnl-82maf-rai-0304-mach1.html
Also went a little overboard and ordered all ARP bolt. LMR has some really cool kits that they didn't have 15 years ago when I built my last big build.
https://lmr.com/item/LRS-10313HDW/mustang-engine-accessory-bracket-hardware-kit-8593
Woody is using this one when adding my timing chain and water pump
https://lmr.com/item/LRS-8501BHDW/1979-93-Mustang-50L-58L-Water-Pump-Timing-Cover-Studs-Bolts
ARP Intake Studs 354-2103
ARP Valve Cover Studs 200-7602
ARP Header Bolts 400-1110 (These are the 5/6 heads to help clear the headers) (I have Studs I will use on both ends)
Ordered a new K&N for the stock air box.

All Choked Up
Thought I might post a couple pictures of my DD 363. Too small Cobra intake (ported lower), too small XE274HR cam, too small AFR 185 Outlaw heads (upgraded 8019 springs) Woody built the shortblock with my used Scat crank, and RPM rods. The idea was to build a nice streetable combo with mostly parts I had laying around.
Hope this is some inspiration OP!

So did get much done today on my build was helping a friend cut his rear end down.
But went to another friends junk yard and got the right sensor for the 85mm being it was made for an 03-04 mustang. Took a min to find one. As you can see I cut the inside out didn't need it. Its just for looks anyway. Will work more on it tomorrow.

So got a few measurements so you can see the size of everything as you can see the mass air is way to big to fit so I had to boil some water put the rubber ends in it and let them soften so it would stretch then one I put it on I kept it on till it cooled off so it would form to the new size see pics.

So I thought I had ordered ALL the carpet for the car once I open the box I learned I only ordered the back but I installed it today this was very simple only 4 screws. If you look at the back seat you can see a big difference in color.
Plan on ordering front carpet tonight.

Just a pic of the parts that I'm working on adding. Some stuff is for the motor.

Added the speakers today. Dash speakers didn't fit great but it will work. The one down side is I bet I added 5lb to the car they weigh a bunch more. Added some tape to the connectors thought it may cut down on noice.
Attachments
Few more speaker pics and the ones with the tape.

While I was in the doors I knew the Actuators were bad but man they wounded move at all. Ordered some new ones today. Also paints my Lower controller arms did like the red didn't want people to look by the tire a see them sticking out (RED) so I painted them black.
