I was going to build a lsx s10 but after sanding on the body the poor truck was all bondo... So I started looking for another coupe to build. I picked up a 91 4 cylinder 5spd car with a Aje kmember, coil overs, metro upper and lowers and a junk 8.8 that was suppose to be built. The 4 banger made it to 2nd gear on a #6 line direct zip tie shot of giggle gas.
1991 mustang coupe
2004 4.8 complete. Pull out
Aje kmember
Upr lower a arms
Upr coil overs with unknown struts
Upr caster camber plates

Ls1 stock injectors and 04 cobra injectors. (No sure which I'll use)
All new gaskets.
241 heads with prc springs and (milled a little)
Tr224 cam
Texas speed 7.4 pushrods
New ls6 oil pump
Turbo 350 trans with 3500 stall
Hurst. Pistol grip shifter
Stock double hump x member. (I'm going to try to make it work)
Ford racing aluminum drive shaft (I'm going to try to make it work)
Power rack with looped hoses (redneck manual steering)
Dynatech long tubes

have you put it together yet? did you get the pan to clear the bigger power rack? I think I saw your "nitrous pass" video on westsidemustangs a while back.

been seeing a lot of coupes out of deer park lately. I grew up there, back in high school everyone had a coupe now they are few and far between.

I set the motor in today and I'm using a camaro pan.

Today I'm going to lay out the harness and get the driver side header in. I need to pull the steering shaft. I hope I won't need a flaming river.

I got the driver side header installed. I pulled the motor and set it in place. Kind of a PITA!!!




I decided to hide the wiring next. I enlarged a hole behind the strut tower and pulled all the connectors threw. I'm going to build a bracket for the solenoid. I'm not 100% on the alt and starter wiring. Any tips are appreciated.


I'm not sure what the big connector is for. It wasn't used on the 4 cylinder. The small connector went to the washer fluid motor. I'm going to cut these out if not needed.

I'm looking for some info on wiring the car. I've read a few threads about it and there seems to be many different ways to do it. I'm deleting the cruise control wires and I have a bracket to mount my solenoid high in the inner fender. I'm moving the battery to the truck with a cut off switch. What is the best way to do this? I'm using welding lead as well.


Ups man showed up today. Tranny lines/fittings/cooler/fuel fittings/flaming river shaft all here.

I got the trans installed last night. The stock v8 mustang cross member lined up almost perfect. I'll post a few pics later. I dropped my phone yesterday and all the pics look like they are from the matrix.

Tranny cooler is in and steel braided lines are done. I picked up another 91 dash harness and wrapped up the connectors I'm not using. The ford dash harness is a mess to try to clean up..

Finally got some time to mess with the car.
Drilled the block and tapped a m10x1.50 hole for using a ls1 alt bracket

Mounted my solenoid bracket and hung the wires for now.

I'm about to be on my long change so i'll have a week off to get her finished up. I'm still waiting on my harness. UPS came today with my brake swap parts and another lakewood strut. I also took the redneck manual rack off and picked up a flaming river
