Well I decided to build me a cheap budget stang.
I am going to use my low mileage 71 merc 429 beings that it didnt cost me anything.
This one http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaptOJkJQ3A
And a bunch of extra parts I had lying around
oil pan,xe comp 270h cam,set super comp headers and a c4 deal.etc etc.
Figured I would start with a little head clean up.
going to try n keep cost down as much as I can.
I know its not fancy but I have a stroked fancy deal just doing this one for kicks.
