Excellent job overall, but what matters the most is that Ford couldnt perform without its.... "HEARTBEAT"!

looks FANTASTIC!!!! did you leave it stock or "work" it a bit? any major areas of concern that you'd like to share with the rest of us compare how low that motor sits vs where a 351 would have ended up! NICE JOB!

Are you trying to disguise the engine as a rare Ford Racing option?
Good job in the looks department.
