Smokey Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 looks good Derek. Will the motor clear the stock hood? What were you planning for an intercooler setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted98gst Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 If that motor seems to not meet your goals, I have an rb25det front clip that also fits into a fc with mounts . I know your into all ford stuff but its an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboRust Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 couldnt have worked out more perfect with the engine/firewall/ trans placement. Funny thing thats an aftermarket 3" dp for standard 2.3T cars like tbirds, and mustangs and it fits beautifully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
