It’s been awhile and there’s been a few changes. Still have the Dragonstang. Put it has recently received a few new organ transplants. The 351W has been replaced with a 351C. the top loader got pulled and a Tremec T56 6 speed went in. gone is the 1 legged 8 inch rear-end for a posi trac disc brake 9 inch tire torturer. The drum front brake are also disc now being pushed by a new power brake booster thru adjustable proportioning valve and roll control. All new Autometer phantom gauges And yes I’m still married after all that( thank God) so that’s why I also put a roll cage in it and relocated the battery to the trunk. It also received all new sheet metal from the doors forward… no I didn’t wreck it, it
-
Anyway, I got the car running and the battery died on me a few weeks later (a problem the car has always had) so I decided to get a new alternator along with a new alternator harness.
did you recharge the battery? remember the KISS rule. (keep it simple stupid) no offense ment not my saying just one i live by. check the simple things first then go from there. battery, regulator, inline fuses ECT.

Yea. I’m one of those guys’ pulled the aluminum headed Windsor monster out to drop in a warmed up Cleveland with more build potential in. PITA to do by yourself. Engine mounts are all the same but be sure to check on the clutch linkage. I went to a hydraulic clutch because I put in the T56 six speed. The linkage was always a pain to get around my headers and I’m sure it’s going to be different for the 2 motors. If you are going to be doing the work of swaping motors why NOT remove the hood( beats a new paint job and stitches on the back of your head) also pull the radiator. And you can clean everything up when the bay is empty. I put the engine in before I started re plumbing my brake lines for roll control and adj. proportioning valve DOUGH.

i like this one. it looks far better on that modle than it ever did on the doorstops....71-73 it goes really well with the brake vents in the quarters

what programs would you suggest for doing rendering and customizing deferent part using my computer. because when it comes to drawing I'm all banana hands.
-
my best advise for a resto mod is to decide what you really want to use the car for. no sense spending all your time and money building a quarter mile monster when the closest strip is 1000 miles away and you are surrounded by beautiful twisty winding country roads. and keep your plans within your budget, to many projects die because people WANT 800 hp but can only afford 500 right now. plan for the future,solid foundation today flash tomorrow.
