This is the point where i stopped and took the car to the 3rd shop to have the shock towers notched further back, the intercooler, radiator, reservoirs, etc installed, have the headers fit, etc. Initially the overpriced RRS notching kit was used, which probably would have been fine, but the first shop installed it incorrectly-they did not follow the templates i provided and the towers were not notched far enough. In hindsight, the motor should have been fit before the car ever even though about going into the paint booth and before the notching kit was welded in place....live and learn. In addition, it would have also been cheaper and smarter to simply buy plate steel and cut it out myself instead of buying the notching kit and paying for shipping from Australia-doh!
2003 Mustang Radiator and fan installed.
AC condensor from old air products. This is a great system and they really take pride in manufacturing high quality systems
Aftercooler AFCO double pass
09 CobraJet EGR Block off plate. It looked like it would fit, so i ordered it. Glad that it does.
Shock Towers notched further back for more clearance-total waste of time and money. If you are going to do this type of conversion, use a suspension like the TCI system that eliminates the towers
The engine mount supports had to be notched for exhaust header clearance.
The Ford Racing Driver's side exhaust header had to be cut and rewelded to clear the TCP power steering rack.
Engine compartment repaint. I decided to go with black for a better contrast since the engine is gray.
