Nice!

Get them to weld all those little holes shut and smooth out the engine bay while your at it. It looks so much better than leaving them. Are you going to relocate your battery to the trunk?

Re: Mustang Rebuild........ Updated 02/06/2008
Weight distribution is the biggest advantage of moving the battery. Get more weight in the rear where you need it. What are you plans for it. Are you taking it to the track? If so a battery cut off switch would be a good idea as well.

Smooth it out, hide the wires, you won't be disappointed.

Not sure this this hold true for the stangs 302, but I had Bronco with a 302 this past year and by upgrading the ignition, coil, distributor, and wires to all MSD stuff I was able to bump the timing a couple of degrees. Add it looked nice too.

Red Top...........but they are not sure what caused the cell to melt. Could have been the alternator, a faulty battery..............

Looks very nice. Please tell me you're going to replace the drivers side strut and the steering rack.
