Default Lat-G like forum for Mustangs?

I'm curious, with all of this talk on a Mustang project. Is there any site, similar to Lat-G or PT.com for the Ford guys? Not that I want to promote a different site, but it seems that so few Mustang projects are posted here, and I have to believe that there is a similar contingent of Ford guys as these sites seem to be mostly GM based...

HELLO, I'm right here a Ford guy. Mustangs aren't the only Fords you know.



Matt I think you should sell those seats to help finance your subframe.

Yeah yeah, I know there are one or two of you here... But you have to admit these sites are predominately GM based. I've never built a Mustang (or any other Ford except for my father's old street rods), but I'm thinking I might have an interest in one some day!

Yep just like when I was a kid and would go into super shops and the majority of the stuff was for a SBC. It's just the way it is. There are plenty of Ford sites devoted to engine building, drag racing and restoring cars but nothing PT specific that I know of.

When you say GM you mean LS don't you? Even your Pontiac doesn't have Pontiac power. Some of the Ford on here aren't Fords they have LS power.

Anyway when you pick that Ford someone here will know where to get the info you ned to build it.

Not yet, but that is still the plan. It's still running the Pontiac 400 for now (and I just tuned it up last weekend since I still don't have a place to start the teardown yet!).

There are a few guys holding down the fort with some SBC and BBC power still. But yes, it's an LS-world in the majority I think. And I have 600HP of LS-goodness waiting to be installed!!!

Hmm the pictures in your link the red car has a SBC in it. You know 600hp out of a Pontiac is pretty easy to do these days.

Besides, 600 hp out of a Pontiac would be more fun than 600 from an LS.
