Unsurprisingly people love it and there were lots of double takes when people walked by.

It is also super happy to cruise at 85mph.

Such a clean build. I love it.

So I am very late to and uninformed about this project. What was your engine mounting solution?

Turns out that 2JZ engine mounts for a F100 with Crown Vic swap are not a thing.

I just made some chassis mounts that part of the stock mounts bolt to.

Kinja'd!!!

Thanks! Appreciate it.

Slow clap. Love these kinds of builds. Think of a cool name for yours yet? Local shop calls theirs the Bel Error.

That’s cool as fuck.

You gonna leave the bed with the rusty look or paint it? I’m conflicted about whether you should leave it or paint it.

What’s the gearbox? Is it tuned/optimized yet? What’s updates are next?

That is cool as hell!!

The truck has gone by El Groucho since long before I bought it, 7 years ago.

Thanks!

I am sure I’ll paint it one day but that is years away.

It has an AR5 from a Solstice, bolts right to the 2J with a 1J bellhousing.

I am running a little above factory boost but that is all for right now. Next step is current get Mustang IRS, then standalone ECU.
