it's been a pretty busy "off season" for transmissions, which I'm not complaining about. Just excusing myself for not having this thing already running and driving.
still need to get the driver position sorted so I can put the door bars in, but it's made some progress!
wind picked up so i had to stop for the day. more paint was going on the neighbors house than the mustang. also it was maybe 20*F under minimum application temp for the rustoleum.

What Rustoleum do you use for the interior? Anything special, or just plain ol' Rustoleum spray paint?
made my mind up, im just gonna run the gold box until i get to the shock travel sensor level of going fast. boost control with MS is fine. no dash really needed.
this will let me race this coming season, and next fall/winter i can upgrade if needed.
paint done. needs seam sealer and i'll probably brush on the touch ups and paint over the seam sealer but i can do that later. need to make it a roller again asap so some trick or treater doesnt knock it over on his little sister (attractive nuisance type thing)
motor in and trans xmember built. hung some sheet metal so i could check hoot clearance. a TBSS was never gonna fit
pancake inspecting
cut the headers to give me more room for the turbo kit
grabbed a car intake from my buddy Travis (and a waterpump). just need to sort an alternator bracket next
rear seat firewall installed
rear package tray and trunk floor installed
just waiting on some flexible fire barrier sealant and then some paint touch ups and I can move onto the fun parts like turbo plumbing
turbo on the way. went with the T6 HD8088 from Forced Performance. looking at treadstone intercoolers but open to new stuff. especially if they cost a bit less and are the same quality.
anyways i got some undercoating in the wheel wells.good nuff for me. need to seal the firewall with proper 3M flexible fire sealant and then touch up some cage paint. thats is gonna be a good day when i can work on something other than the cage and the floorpan!
