[rpm56]

Years ago just after buying the Mustang I was driving down the road and saw a boat for sale that had a shaker air cleaner on the motor. After chatting with the owner I bought the shaker assembly for $25. Yep, $25.00. Called a buddy who owned a wrecking yard and bought a shaker hood for another $25, too cool.

When I installed the motor with the Weiand Stealth intake the shaker was sitting too high. I decided to use some adjustable motor mounts to lower the engine.

Just another piece that took 3 tries to get it right. Ah, sure beats mowing the lawn.











A little planning goes a long way. The oem's poor design has two sharp bends and goes above the lower control arm, causing interference with the oil pan.











Another crazy move I did was to reroute the header tubes because the drivers side came too close for my comfort to the brake booster and brake line. This Miller is the third tig I've owned and made welding the tubes much easier. The first two tigs were a Linde 305 liquid cooled and a Miller Syncrowave 180 air cooled. My current welder is a Miller Diversion 180 which is fun to use. For my needs it fills the bill completely.
