Jealous on the computer man. Those 243's should be awesome, the extra 10cc intake and 5cc exhaust volume on those ports will help but I'm curious about one thing. I know it's going to be NA for now but when it comes time for big single turbo what are you going to do compression wise? It would be rad running 10.5:1 but I feel like the 241's will be better for a boost app. because of the actual Chamber volume while only going from 10.5:1 to 10.1:1. Can't wait to see this thing all buttoned up and ready to run I'm just eager to learn your plans.

Did I miss an update or is this new news lmao? I don't have crazy experience with how LS heads work with boost but just looking at the numbers I was assuming on the previous post.

Mustang will be coming home soon!
My garage has been vacated and I now have space to bring it home. In leu of that Im using the excess fence post I chopped off to build some car stands to get the car off the ground and easier to work on till I pick up a small portable lift.
Thats all for now but there will be more progress being made in the coming weeks.

Snuck a few more hours work in tonight.
On my lunch break at work today I ran to lowes and got some more 4x4 to finish building my stands. Ole trusty daily with the roof rack worked perfectly. Who needs a truck anyway?
Once home I decided to forget building stands and finish installing the trans adaptor for the CD009 trans. If you don't remember the process involves cutting off the majority of the stock bell housing on the trans. They give you a precise measurement of where to cut, however this leaves a large 1/4" gap. Not having that. So I cut it a little short, and then mocked up adaptor, grinned some more. Rinse. Repeat, until she fits perfectly and there is a 1/16'' gap all the way around. Im pleased with that. With the trans case suitably trimmed it was time for final install of the adaptor.
Due to how the adaptor fits the t56 bell housing must be bolted to the adaptor before the adaptor is bolted to the trans. With the bellhosuing and adaptor combined its as simple as bolting that assembly to the trans and your all set. Now I just need a TOB and clutch assembly. The only issue I had with the whole install was 3 holes that the adaptor bolts to the bell housing with were ever so slightly off and needed to be opened up a bit to get the bolt threaded.

Aluminum dust got everywhere but it turned out good. All for it to be mounted under the car where nobody will see it lol. Sometimes i **** my attention to detail. Spend way too much time on things that will never be seen.IG @gt3_brz

Yeah but also who wants excessive debris in their bellhousing dirtying up their clutch and pressure plate? I would have done the same, although I'm sure this thing will be coming in and out of the car seeing as it's a strip car it doesn't hurt to cut your clean up time!

very cool! Is this process similar to what would need to be done to mate that Nissan trans to a 2jZ? ive heard of it being done before but never seen pictures as nice as yours. Also, I was curious what your plans are for the rear end; keeping 4 link? or do panhard bar/ torque arm? either way, cool cars, great work!

Rear end is staying the factory layout 4 link. No need to change as this setup has been deep in the 7s, must faster than i ever intend to go.IG @gt3_brz

Had a fairly productive weekend.
To start Friday night I was able to pull the dash and fenders. Reason being was 1 to pull rest of ac system out, and number two for access to the back of future welds. Ill be shaving and plugging holes in the dash and I wanted access for proper corrosion protection back there.

After getting the dash out I started pulling out/off the engine bay harness. Whats not needed will be stripped and taken out. The rest of the useable stuff will be lengthened/shortened when necessary to tuck it nice and neatly after tube front end is on. Have an idea for where im going to mount most of the major components, just have to test it out and see if it will work.

Saturday I spent most of the day helping out a friend with his Ls swapped turbo SN95 PROJECT. he just got it up and running and we were cleaning some things up and starting the tune process on it. Gave me some motivation for mine haha. While there I also picked up a set of wheels. They are junk XXR rep wheels (if you know me I **** replica wheels) but there sole purpose is to mount a set of tires on and drive on them while I sort everything out once its up and running. Basically a set of street wheels I will upgrade later down the road. He also had a spare truck oil pan that I picked up. I ended up selling the moroso to a local who needed it in a hurry.

Come Sunday I was able to get some more work done while the baby and wife took a nap. First up I mocked up the new to me wheels. Perfect fit. I also had a new 5.3 harness come in ill be using for the pigtails to wire up the MS3 harness.Got it for pennies on the dollar so I don't feel bad chopping it up.

Next I mocked the motor up for various reasons. Plan out the turbo setup, plan where through the firewall I will be putting the harness etc. I also checked hood clearance to see if I had enough space for the high-rise. Looks like with some crossmember spacers I will be able to make it work.
