Well, had a '93 Thunderbird SC that I bought for a buildup. It died of cancer. Took the supercharged V6 out as spare for wifes '93 (LS1 T56 transplanted in place of OEM M5R2 5 spd).
Now I have a pre-78 460 that needs to go to the machine shop.
Plans are:
Aluminum heads (need)
Bore +0.030
juggle pistons and cc to obtain 10-10.5 CR
Mild cam (need)
B&B rotating assy
convert to SEFI and EDIS 8 (have wiring harness' to modify, & various other parts req'd)
Still need a M/T flywheel, clutch,PP and another LS1 T56 6spd (Cuz I like it!)
Already have conversion bellhousing.
Have '04 Cobra SVT PBR calipers (still need 13" rotors)
Have new hubs/brgs to swap to 5x4.5" bolt patern
A lot of this stuff was going to go on the wifes car........But she likes it the way it is. She will get the '02 GT PBR's as they will work with original potors and 16" wheels. (The SVT's need 17-18" wheels to clear calipers)
Trying to get a guy at the bird site to make a tubular K member for the project. That way I can lower the engine ~2" or so.
But I still need a body to put it in.
Headed to VA (Hampton Roads in July for work, looking to do some shooting, hunting & junkyard scrounging while I am there!
