    New Guy with roadster

    Hello All,
    I have been lurking on here for a while and I,ve gathered all kinds of useful info from different threads. I'm down in FL and have recently had my MK4 delivered. I plan to do a build thread at some point. I'm sure I am going to have a lot of questions along the way, and from what I can tell there are plenty of folks willing to help on here.

    Just thought I would say HI.

    Thanks for the welcome all.

    Thought I would post a little about my build plan. I got the base kit with a few options. Optioned for tubular lower control arms, manual steering rack, and willwood pedal box. I have sn95 spindles and brakes for the front. Rear end is an 8.8 with 3.08 gears that I re-built. 5 lug conversion sticking with the drums. I have a 5.0 HO from a 96 Explorer. (They come with same GT40 heads and intake that were in the 93 Mustang Cobras) That I am rebuilding / converting to Mustang specs. I have a few extra goodies I am adding (BBK MAF sensor, cold air intake, and BBK fuel rails) I have a rebuilt T5 and thinking about a mid-shift conversion. At the moment I'm planning on red with black stripes. My goal is something I can cruise to a show or two in with a bit more horse power than a stock foxbody 5.0 HO.

    Build thread planned for future.
