Hi Ken,
I'm doing some research on different engine/trans combos. I would like to use a T5 trans along with a 302 or 351 engine. Nothing too wild. I am looking at the GT40 Ford crate engine. Around 345 horse power. It seems like a pretty good deal for a new engine. I'm not really up to date on Ford stuff (I've been working on Chevy's too long) so I'm trying to find out what works and what doesn't. If I go with the GT40 I need to find out what kind of pulley/water pump setup is required, fuel pump (mechanical or electric), if the flywheel that comes with it will work, intakes etc. I'm still a little undecided on the street or SC versions. As for the color I think I'm going to go with a blue. The last few cars I've had have been red so I'm ready for change. How about yours? What engine are you using and your choice of colors? If your using a small block is it an early engine or a later model?

Mike
