well here we Go !!!!!!! I'm finally going to start a new build thread....

a little back drop on "ole Red" , I did a "TFS HCI" build thread a couple years ago, other than swapping a couple engines and transmissions that's about the most I've done.

a couple pics, it actually looked pretty good when I was done with it.

it really only lasted about 3,000 miles , I never got the tune right and it started losing oil pressure, so I decided I was going to get a good engine somewhere??

and decided to start tearing it down about 2.5 yrs ago, about middle/latter part of 2012.

Read all the posts...glad to see you got it running.

You will always find something "just need to fix" or to go over and tweek some more, its the life of a Foxbody rebuilder.

I always think of this FordStrokers build/break-in when people spend weeks wondering what the best priming/startup/break-in procedure is.
