Just wanted to introduce myself. Names Richard work in the Army and love Mustangs! Always have and always will. Been in the Army for 11 years now and love what I do. I've owned a good number of Mustangs over the years ranging from 90-02, though this is was my first fox and has been my most precious one yet. Just glad to be here, I've done a good bit of motor work so now I am beginning to work on the interior and I know I will have plenty of questions because I don't have much experience with upholstery (I want to do the interior in black suede). I will give a little bit about the car it itself down below. If anyone must know I named this little beauty Isabella lol.

My Car
So we pulled out the 302 and added a 347 Stroker Engine with a 10.5 to 1 compression ratio, Scat crank rods, Keith Black pistons, Main Girdle, Valley Pro Girdles, Melling HV Oil Pump, Canton 7 Quart oil pan, Double Roller Cloyes 9 Key timing chain, Doug Herbert Solid Roller Cam and Lifters, .604 Lift and 285 Degree advertised duration, Clevite Main and Rod bearings, Edelbrock Victor Jr. Aluminum Cylinder Heads ported and polished, Ferrea stainless steel valves
2.05 Intake, 1.60 Exhaust, Doug Herbert Valve Springs, Scorpion 1.7 Roller Rockers on 7/16" studs with Howard's Rocker Girdle, Trick Flow R series upper and lower ported and polished intake matched to cylinder heads, 42 lb injectors
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, 75 MM throttle body and EGR spacer
80 MM Vortec Mass Air Sensor, Hooker Super Comp Full Length Headers into 3 inch Flowmaster Exhaust-No Cats, 450 horse at Crank-375 at rear tire, custom conservative Dynotune., GForce T-5 Five speed, Long Shifter(Steeda Triax)
Cobra R pressure plate with McCloud 500 series disc, Gear reducation starter
Adjustable Clutch Cable, quadrant and firewall adjuster kit, 8.8 rear 3.90 Gears
All new bearings, rebuilt posi, 28 spline alloy axels, 5 lug, Factory Five upper trailing arms, Full length weld on Sub frame connectors, Eibach lowering springs, Strut tower brace, solid motor mounts, motor lowered 7/8"
Mishimoto Radiator

SO thats about it as for the motor, trans and drivetrain. The rest of the car as remained pretty much stock which I would like to keep. I am placing an order for new smoked headlights,smoked taillights, and smoked fog lights here in the next few weeks before I begin working on the interior.

Would love to get anyone's advice and comments. Glad to be here!
