1987 Shelby Z owned for 6 years and has been an ongoing project for
about that long. Went through a total restoration last year,
New paint, side moldings, carpet, the works. The motor was built
in 1997. TII short block, FM Enforcer I head with 44mm/38mm valves.
FM enforcer I turbo, ported exhaust/intake manifold. Had FM 475 cam
up until we found it to have a worn lobe with flat spots on the followers
also. A 88 roller cam/rockers are being installed in place of the
FM unit. The intercooler has been relocated to the nose. AC
and power steering have both been removed. Electronics are a ND 16psi
module which uses +40% injectors and a GM 3 bar MAP. I run an MSD
6A ignition box with a Blaster 2 coil with magnecore wires and NGK v-groove
plugs. The exhaust is a 2.5" aluminized system w/no cat and a DynoMax
race magnum bullet. The suspension was just upgraded to KYB's all
around along with polyurethane bushings. A Neon strut tower brace
has be custom fit also. The only stock gauge remaining is the speedo,
the rest have been replaced by a full compliment of AutoMeter gauges, all
custom fit into the dash, and a dual gauge pod for boost and a/f gauges.
An FM header kit will be the next project. I am sure something has
been left out but like I said it's a living project ;o) |
