No that's not mine, I stumbled across it today while surfing, figured you'd like to check it out. I've got a T/C with a 5.0 in it.

Vinnie: I was able to score some of the honeycomb material used on Mustang hood scoops (2002-2004?) and carefully cut it to fit.
Here's a pic of the engine.
daboss: I might be going to the Riverside show Sunday @ Fred's Service Center. http://www.cruisinbruce.com/CarShowCalendar.html

Wow thats clean!  So the mustang A/C bracket clears the scoops?  I know the cat/bird/mark bracket wont.  It puts the A/C pump strait up instead of at an angle like that mustang bracket.

I'll post a few pics of my Sport when the new paint is on the car.I also have to re-detail my engine.It's hard to keep the engine clean while I'm doing all the restomod work,and,my scoops on the hood are wide open.I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with the scoops yet.I have a couple of ideas,we'll see.You have a great looking  engine bay.Mine will once again shine in a couple of months.I'll get everything done right before paint so i don't have to hang all over newly painted sheet metal.Nice work.
