Nice work, Tu! Neighbor's car is badass, also.

Also got the booster/bracket from Steve's mustang and Lokar throttle pedal assembly installed to make sure nothing interfere with the wiring.

No motor fitment yet. Hoping to have it dropped in X-mas week.

are you going to convert that car to cable throttle body or will that pedal work with a drive by wire APP sensor? I'm looking for a cable throttle pedal for a 1967 I'm working on now.

The motor has DBC throttle body, so my plan is to get Lokar LS1 cable.

Well ran into a little problem. The Ididit column I got is Ford pattern, and I have an adapter for a GM top shaft to Momo wheel, which won't work (did not know Ididit makes a Mustang replacement column with GM top shaft-too late to swap out since the column is already painted.

Anyone has any tips on how adapt a Momo wheel to a Ford type steering column?

Looks good Tu!

What are your thoughts on the wiring harness?

Will any of these work for the momo?

I ended up ordering a Grant 3 hole adapter, and a 3 hole-6 hole adapter on ebay. We'll see how those turn out.

The AAW kit is top notch, but somewhat still in-complete if you have a Mustang with a pony interior. I ended up ordering the door wiring light kit, wiper wiring kit from CJ Pony.

Don't remember the brand of the wheels. The car owner ordered them and had them shipped directly to me. They are made in China, and cost around $140 ea.
