I'm anxious as well. As far as I know, after searching several forums, this install is the first DSE alumaframe install with an LS. Guess we'll be the guinea pig on this one.

Beautiful car and color. So nice to have such a rust free car too!
Should be a great one after the build. Love the Mustang cars.

Some pictures.





Torn down the front end sheet metal in preparation for engine removal.





The car was worked on (or hacked on) by the PO, prior to purchase by my friend. The front end hardware consist of metric and SAE bots, sheet metal screws. The PS headlight bucket was held on to the fender with sheet metal screws.
