New guy from Texas
 

What's happenin? I saw the link to lateral-g in PHR and had to check it out. I'm building a 68 mustang fastback that will hopefully be up to par with the lateral-g philosophy. I have installed a Grab-A-Trak suspension with beefy sway bars, under-ride traction bars, 620 coil springs up front, new upper and lower control arms, and 5 leaf mid eye springs in back. I also put power discs up front. Eventually I'm going 4 wheel disc. I'm in the process of dropping my new 351 windsor hyd/roller motor in. It has Edelbrock Performer RPM heads, a custom cam with 224 degrees of duration @.50 (whatever that means), Performer intake, and Holley 650 dp. My new tranny is a Tremec 3550 5 speed. I bought the car clean and relatively stock with a tired 302, and have spent the past 2 years trying to get it up to speed. I'm in the military and keep the car in Texas at my brother's place. So I only get to work on it twice a year, but it's getting there. Here's a couple of pics:

Thanks for the compliments guys. I also have a 97 convertible with Steeda suspension and Cobra brakes. And XcYZ, I fly in P-3 Orions. I've been in P-3s for 13 years. It beats the heck out of working in a cubicle. :thumbsup:
