Just read all 36 pages. Awesome build. What year mustang did your t5 come from? Because they made the input shaft and bellhousing longer in 94 to move the shifter back. That may have been the problem with your first t5, because the v6 and v8 t5s are supposed to be essentially the same.

Fancy harnesses

Got some shiny new belts and stickers.









And got some stickers in the mail for a blog I'm now a "photographer" for.

Have you been having problems with oil temperatures previous to this? I may end up needing to do the same thing on my E21 if my fan setup doesn't move enough air to keep the engine cool purely via the radiator.

I haven't yet, or atleast I hope not. What you're talking about is essentially why I'm doing it haha.

Screw valve cover studs, t-handles would look right at home on this thing

Take that super long bolt out of your diver's side head. It will take like 15 minutes. It will look lots better.

Huh? Which one?

Also you are aware of what my engine bay looks like, right? A long bolt is the least on my mind haha.

Got a few things done today.


- Bled the brakes

- Repainted parts of the valance where the paint had been burnt by the exhaust

- Did some rolling burnouts

- Started mounting the oil cooler and made some air flow block-plates

- Did silly things with my old trunk

[FunfGang]

Please, pretty please do not do the boso oil cooler.

Fantastic build! Once I realised you had fitted the EEC to this I felt your pain. I did the same in my E21 (Although using a Ford AU 4L I6) - I'm still having nightmares!

Holy hell.


I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight, after seeing that haha.
