Yes, Seniors graduate on the 21st and UPK-8th grade their last day is on the 25th. This is the school district that I went to so the others in the area are going to be pretty close to the same.

A Corvette engine in a Mustang?! Sacrilege!

It's definitely clean though!

Okay, now that's enough of that. I didn't come here to get offended. That Mustang is entirely offensive........LOL

Afternoon guys. Things like that have always made me want to put a big block Ford in a first year pristine Corvette.....


Oh, and don't forget I'll cut a hole in the hood for the blower......

Howdy Pat. I would be all about that idea with a pristine Vette lol.

She of course had to get on me with those Mustang shots, so I couldn't help but share the aggravation. But I give credit where it's due, it appears to be a cleanly done swap even if LS swaps are "lazy and easy" as I told her lol

I really don't get the "let's do all of this work to build this awesome machine & then just throw an SBC in it" mentality. Anytime I bring it up I get told how SBC's are "cheap horsepower." 5.0's are a dime a dozen. I have two 351C's, one 351M & one 351W sitting in my dad's garage. They're pretty cheap too. Even 460's can be had for cheap if you're willing to do the work of salvaging it from whatever rusted-out hulk it's sitting in. My thought is, if you're going to spend a small fortune building an awesome Ford, then put Ford power in it. Same goes for Chevy & Mopar. Now I have a couple of rat rod friends that literally put whatever they have laying around into different builds. The less it makes sense, the more motivated they are to make it work. I get that, but the other stuff doesn't make sense to me.
