That setup should be awesome!
How much time did the fabricator take to make the engine/trans mount and headers?
Plan on upgrading the rear end
once you get traction. Don't they have Dana solid axles out back?
A buddy has a '93 Volvo with 347ci 5.0 Ford setup and TKO 5speed. He road races and installed some factory 13" front brakes... you should think about the same.
Even with baby turbos that car should make 600rwhp quite easily.
Good luck... awesome project.
If you want sponsors try to line up a magazine article to be done on the car with proof from them that you are getting exposure..... then contact companies that could provide you with their product. They need to justify giving away/discounting their parts for "marketing."
