Greg, that line running over the header area, that's a return line no, or is it to a fuel gauge isolator?

It is a fuel gauge isolator. There is no return line.

Oil pressure SUCKS! 45 psi at 7500 rpm

Attached mine for comparison.

^^ What a happy dyno that is.

His one and only claim to fame..... One and done.

Most of the fast Shelby boys run tony Otto 331's
With approx 500 hp and 500 lbs of torque they spin them to
7000 or 7200. You need to change the springs almost every year
if you track a lot and spin it,,,

347 out of a 302 not good. Piston wrist pin hangs half way out
Of the cylinder on the down stroke ... will rock and break things
If you want to rev it. 6000 max with a 347 to make it live
I know as I scattered one on front straight of thunderhill

I agree with Weld (can't believe I am saying that:)
There is nothing like a high spinning stroker singing in your ear

I recognize that suspension. It currently has a Roush Yates motor between the shock towers, not the coyote.

Nothing, never mind.

One of the highlights of the NorCal Shelby Mini Nats trip was dropping the Mustang off at BMR Racing and getting a tour of the shop and mini education seminar with Ron Sutton. Thanks Ron for being a great host. :thumbsup:

I'll let the camera doing the talking.
