It’s been a LONG time since I’ve posted here, but I have been moving forward. I haven’t gotten a lot done to the car, but it’s because I finally got the chance to build a small Home shop and that’s been taking up all my time. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fe34b64f77.jpg

Then on to electrical, lighting & vertical storage. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5e92cfe48c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b6bb33ac35.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...65ef2c4286.jpg

And my lift...

I’ve got the Falcoon moved into the shop and I’ve been doing some work. I’ve gotten the new Tanks inc. EFI tank installed and ran the new 3/8” stainless steel hard lines ran up to the passenger side firewall.

I also ended up changing to a different intake to give myself the needed clearance for the brake booster. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f927674d80.jpg

I’ll be starting on wiring soon, so I can get the engine bay buttoned up.

I see the trick flow intake is gone. What intake is that it looks very nice

It’s my favorite body style of Falcon.

It’s an eBay special. Typhoon. I did some port work on the lower and the throttle body opening. Rumor is that it’ll make good power & with my current build, it should make great low end/midrange power. I figure this iteration of the car only needs good power for fun drivin’!

I’m planning on either an Art Morrison or Roadster Shop full chassis for the next iteration, along with another motor choice...probably LS or maybe an ecotec
