dam man coming along nicely.....man that tranny tunnel isn't gonna be as big as i thought....looking really good though man. couple more quesitons before I go. Did you have any issues with your brake booster hiting the tire? And how is the clearance with the firewall? Any tubbing required? Oh and what size tires are you runnning....

Looking good. I am sure you have all the specs to duplicate your frame for your future customers, right? :lol: You make it look so easy.

I also though that the tranny tunnel was going to be crazy big but it's not that bad.I am using a 89 mustang booster with a 75 f250 master cylinder, this setup gives me plenty of clearance.

The motor, tranny,computer and harnest all came out of a 89 5.0 mustang convertible. This motor is strong,I plan on leaving the dual exhaust to get max horsepower.

Yes I do have all the specs on a note pad ready to build some more frames. I found the old instructions that came with my mustangII kit when I first bought it from Fatman Fabrications, I am going to scan them and post them for anybody that would like to see how it's done.
