I see you are getting close on that fasback of yours No more room between the shock towers than your stang. I think you can use Mustang Headers in a Torino/Fairlane.

It will be cool to see that tripower injection in action.

It has been creating some interest at the engine shop ,it will look even better nestled between the rails in the car .I am heading back to work Monday so hopefully when i get home the build will be complete .Still some work ahead with the exhaust to be built from the collectors back .I will then finish fuel lines and fit the FAST ECU . Will also setup radiator looking at a AFCO twin pass .The only drama is the hot days in the shed we have had days in the high 30 's C makes it a little uncomfortable .All the best for Christmas and a Happy New Year .

Happy holidays Mark. Can't wait to see yours up and running. High 30s like 37 or 38 ? That is on the warm side if you add any humidity.

that is a clean looking formal roof. Check out Jason's Torino 420 on this site. He has a really clean Formal with a stroked Windsor in it.
Thanks for the props.
